About Pinsky Law

Pinsky Law is a small Ontario firm with offices in Toronto and Barrie, run by lawyer Andrey Pinsky, who holds a B.Sc., M.Sc., J.D. and M.B.A. That mix of science and business degrees lines up with a practice built around entrepreneurs, inventors and technology start-ups. The firm helps clients incorporate, register patents, trademarks and copyright, and raise venture financing, and it also works as part-time outside counsel for mid-sized businesses. Beyond start-up work, Pinsky Law handles business and commercial litigation, taxation law (including CRA audit responses, notices of objection and disputes before the Tax Court of Canada), real estate matters, and wills, estates and asset protection planning, with some of that planning extending to offshore structures such as Cook Islands trusts.

The firm does not offer free initial consultations. It says on its own fees page that a free consultation is really a free audition rather than legal advice, and it favours flat fees where a matter allows it. Since 2010 it has also run CONCEPT LAW, a reduced cost Canadian trademark filing program aimed at start-up companies. Litigation work, including business, intellectual property and tax disputes, is argued before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, the Tax Court of Canada and the Federal Court of Canada.

The neighbourhood

Pinsky Law's Toronto office is at 45 Sheppard Avenue East, right at Yonge and Sheppard. The Small Claims branch of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice sits at 47 Sheppard Avenue East, immediately next to that address, and the Sheppard-Yonge subway station, where TTC's Line 1 and Line 4 meet, is a short walk down Yonge Street. For a firm that argues business, tax and IP disputes, filing in the Superior Court is a short trip from the office.

The Barrie office is on Bayfield Street, which the City of Barrie describes as a regional connector running up toward a Highway 400 interchange the province is planning to rebuild. That kind of highway access fits a firm whose site also lists Huntsville, Parry Sound, Orillia and the Muskoka area, alongside Barrie and Toronto, as places it serves clients.
