About Reiter-Nemetz

Reiter-Nemetz is a small law firm on Sheppard Avenue West in North York, near the Yonge and Sheppard corridor of Toronto. Two lawyers currently practise there: Marilyn Reiter-Nemetz and Hyla Reiter. The firm's listed practice areas cover residential and commercial real estate, commercial law, wills and estates, intellectual property, and art law.

The practice traces back to Edward Reiter. Edward Reiter's relative, Marilyn Reiter-Nemetz, joined the firm in 1989 after articling at Torys and practising real estate law with Del Zotto Zorzi and with Lang Michener. Marilyn Reiter-Nemetz was called to the Ontario bar in 1984, earned a BA and a JD from the University of Toronto, and was recognized on the Dean's list there. The real estate practice, spanning residential and commercial acquisition, financing, leasing and disposition, along with wills, trusts and powers of attorney, has been a focus since. Hyla Reiter joined the firm in 1996, the same year Hyla Reiter was called to the Ontario bar, and holds a BSc in Computer Science along with a JD, both from the University of Toronto. Hyla Reiter's practice centres on wills and estates and on commercial leasing, including preparing estate documents and administering estates.

The neighbourhood

North York's Lansing neighbourhood, near the firm's Sheppard Avenue West office, is bounded by Yonge Street, Highway 401, Bathurst Street and Burnett Avenue, according to Wikipedia. The neighbourhood grew up around a general store and post office at Yonge and Sheppard and developed into a residential neighbourhood of mostly single-family homes between 1910 and the 1950s.

That growth left Lansing with a mix of low-rise streets and mid-rise buildings dating from different decades, the kind of established housing stock that keeps a residential real estate practice occupied with resale purchases, refinancing, and the property matters that come with estate transfers.
