About Romain Law Professional Corporation
Romain Law Professional Corporation is a litigation firm in midtown Toronto, run by founder Adam Romain, an Osgoode Hall Law School graduate. The firm covers civil and human rights litigation, disability and insurance law, employment law, and criminal and constitutional law, keeping those areas under one roof rather than splitting them across separate lawyers. Romain founded the practice after working as a civil litigator at a firm focused on insurance litigation and personal injury, wanting to represent a wider range of people facing disability discrimination, workplace disputes, and criminal accusations.
Romain's path into law started early. During studies at Osgoode Hall, Romain was one of a small group of students admitted into the school's Innocence Project and was later hired to continue that clinical work. Working alongside criminal defence lawyer James Lockyer, Romain helped secure the release of Romeo Philion, who had spent 31 years in prison for a murder conviction, at the time the longest wrongful conviction in Commonwealth history. That work set the direction the practice has kept since.
The office sits on Eglinton Avenue East in midtown Toronto, but the practice isn't limited to people who can walk in. Romain Law represents clients across Ontario and beyond by videoconference, treating an overlapping problem, like an accident that leads to both a disability claim and a dispute at work, as one case rather than several.

Good to know
Wheelchair accessibleWho handles what
The neighbourhood
Romain Law's office is on Eglinton Avenue East, in the Yonge and Eglinton area the firm itself describes as the heart of midtown Toronto. Yonge and Eglinton has grown into one of the city's business districts, home to corporate offices including Canadian Tire and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, and it's served by both the Yonge subway line and the newer Eglinton Crosstown LRT, which meet at Eglinton station. For a firm that says most of its clients are spread across Ontario and reached by videoconference, working from a well-connected midtown office rather than a downtown tower near the courts fits how the practice actually runs, since the people who do come in person aren't limited to those working downtown.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Romain Law represent both employers and employees in workplace disputes?
- Yes. The firm advises employees dealing with discrimination, wrongful dismissal, or workplace harassment, and also advises employers on contracts, terminations, and workplace investigations, which it says gives it a view of both sides of a dispute.
- I was hurt in an accident and it's affecting my job. Can Romain Law help with both?
- That kind of overlap is a big part of what the firm handles. It represents accident victims pursuing disability or insurance claims who are also facing discrimination or other problems at work, and tries to coordinate both pieces of the case together instead of sending them to separate lawyers.
- I've been charged with a criminal offence and I'm worried about my job or professional licence. Can Romain Law help?
- Yes. The firm's criminal and constitutional law practice specifically covers cases where a charge could also put a client's employment or professional standing at risk, and it advises on both the criminal defence and the related employment or licensing exposure.
- Does Romain Law handle long-term disability insurance claims?
- Yes. The firm's disability and insurance law practice covers long-term disability, critical illness, and life insurance claims, along with motor vehicle accident and statutory accident benefits claims.
- Do I have to come to the Toronto office in person to work with Romain Law?
- No. The firm says it represents clients across Ontario, and elsewhere, through videoconferencing, in addition to meeting clients at its midtown Toronto office.
- Does Romain Law take legal aid clients, and are services available in French?
- Adam Romain is listed on the Legal Aid Ontario roster for criminal and Gladue matters, and that listing shows both French and English as languages spoken.
