One of the highest-rated law firms in North York, going by its Google reviews.
Pollack Tsimerman LLP is a personal injury law firm with its office in North York, Ontario, at 2450 Victoria Park Avenue. Its partners, Philip Pollack and Ziv Tsimerman, are both Osgoode Hall Law School graduates. Pollack, also a Western University graduate, previously practiced civil litigation at a large downtown Toronto firm representing national and international insurers and now handles motor vehicle and snowmobile accidents, slip and falls, long term disability claims and product liability. Tsimerman's trial practice covers similar ground, plus medical malpractice claims, with a focus on holding insurance companies accountable on behalf of clients. Tsimerman belongs to the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association and the Canadian Bar Association and is fluent in Hebrew and Russian.
The firm's other two lawyers also bring an insurance side background. Lianne Sharvit, a McMaster University and Osgoode Hall Law School graduate, worked in the insurance defence and personal injury groups of another firm before joining. Michelle Farb studied at Western University and Queen's University's law school and spent years working in house for one of Canada's largest insurers before moving into plaintiff side litigation. All four lawyers work on contingency, so clients pay nothing unless a claim succeeds. Though based in North York, the firm keeps separate phone lines for clients across Ontario, from London and Kitchener to Ottawa, Barrie, Thunder Bay and Hamilton.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
Pollack Tsimerman LLP works out of a single office, Suite 401 at 2450 Victoria Park Avenue in North York, but its client base isn't limited to that address. Alongside its main GTA line, the firm keeps dedicated phone numbers for callers in London, Guelph, Kitchener and Sarnia, in Ottawa and Belleville, across Barrie, Peterborough, Orillia, Huntsville, North Bay and Sudbury, in Thunder Bay, and in Hamilton, St. Catharines and Niagara Falls.
That setup fits the kind of law the firm practices. Because the firm works on contingency and doesn't bill by the hour, someone dealing with a car accident or a disability claim in another part of Ontario can start the conversation by phone rather than travel to North York for a first meeting.
