About Caprara Barristers (CBLAW)

Caprara Barristers, which operates as CBLAW, is a small litigation firm serving clients across the Greater Toronto Area. The firm's two lawyers handle personal injury claims, denied long term disability claims, employment disputes, criminal defence, and immigration and refugee matters, drawing on what the firm describes as more than 30 years of combined trial and dispute resolution experience.

Joseph Caprara leads CBLAW's personal injury, disability law and criminal defence areas of practice. Caprara was called to the Bar of Ontario in 2002 after earning an LL.B. from the University of Windsor Faculty of Law in 2001, and has served the Medico-Legal Society of Toronto as a council member since 2014 and as its past president from 2018 to 2019, a role that connects to the firm's personal injury work, where it says its lawyers build medical knowledge and relationships with medical professionals to support injury claims.

CBLAW also offers services in French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Hindi, Punjabi, Chinese, Romanian, and Spanish, with interpreters available for other languages, reflecting the range of clients it serves across the Greater Toronto Area.
