About Lisa C. Herman Family & Fertility Law

Lisa C. Herman Family & Fertility Law is a Toronto family and fertility law practice in the North York area, near the intersection of Highway 401 and Leslie Street. Herman was called to the bar in 1988 after earning a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Windsor, and also holds a Bachelor of Psychology from York University. The practice focuses mainly on family law: divorce, spousal and child support, property equalization, and domestic contracts such as separation agreements, marriage contracts, and cohabitation agreements. Alongside that work, the firm handles fertility law, drafting agreements for intended parents, egg donors, embryo donors, sperm donors, and surrogates involved in third party reproduction in Canada.

Herman has practiced law for about 30 years, most of that career centered on family law matters resolved through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation, depending on what a case calls for. The practice later grew to include a niche area: representing claimants seeking restitution for art and other property looted or stolen during the Holocaust. Outside the office, Herman volunteers for the Rally for Kids With Cancer charity and plays piano, having trained classically for many years.
