Virtual appointmentsAbout Soccio-Marandola
One of the highest-rated law firms in Toronto, going by its Google reviews.
Soccio-Marandola is a small Toronto law firm that works exclusively in residential real estate, handling purchases, sales, refinances, and title transfers for single-family homes, condos, investment properties, and vacant residential land. The practice is led by Zachary Soccio-Marandola, who holds a JD from Western University and a BSc from Canisius College and is also a licensed real estate Broker through OREA College. Soccio-Marandola worked as a Realtor before moving into law, and the firm still leans on that background when describing how it advises clients through a closing. The office is at 1 Dundas Street West, in the tower at Yonge and Dundas in downtown Toronto.
The team includes associate lawyer Tyra D. Julien, who holds an LLB (Hons) from the University of Sussex and a BA (Hons) from Wilfrid Laurier University and works on estate related conveyances such as survivorship applications and transfers by an estate trustee, and law clerk Amanda Santos, who trained at Seneca Polytechnic and the Institute of Law Clerks of Ontario. The firm quotes all inclusive legal fees starting at $2,299 for a purchase and $1,999 for a sale, plus HST, and offers virtual closings by video for clients who can't get to the office in person. It also publishes a weekly newsletter for Ontario Realtors that the firm's site says has grown past 3,000 subscribers.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
The office is at 1 Dundas Street West, a tower the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario places in the city's Yonge-Bay corridor. The building went up in 1977, designed by Zeidler Partnership Architects, part of the wave of downtown office towers that filled in around Yonge Street through the 1970s. For a practice built around closing deals across the GTA, often by video rather than in person, that kind of central downtown address matters more than a neighbourhood storefront would.
Frequently asked questions
- Can Soccio-Marandola help me buy my first home in Toronto?
- Yes. The firm's purchase work covers single-family homes, condos, investment and rental properties, and vacant residential land, and its quoted legal fees for a residential purchase start at $2,299 plus HST.
- Will you review the status certificate before I close on a condo?
- Yes. The firm reviews a condo's status certificate for things like reserve fund adequacy, common expense arrears, any litigation against the corporation, and rules on pets or rentals, then flags what it finds so the buyer can decide whether to proceed, negotiate, or walk away.
- Can you help me add my spouse or a family member to my property title?
- Yes. The firm handles a range of title transfers, including spousal transfers tied to a marriage, separation, or divorce, gift transfers, adding or removing a name from title, and transfers connected to an estate.
- Do I have to come into the office to sign my closing documents?
- No. The firm offers virtual closings by video, which are valid under Ontario's Electronic Commerce Act, 2000 and carry the same legal effect as signing in person. Clients need two pieces of government issued photo ID, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera and microphone, and in person signing is still available as an alternative.
- How big is the firm, who actually works on my file?
- Soccio-Marandola is a small team built around one practice area: a principal lawyer, an associate lawyer, and a law clerk, rather than a large firm where a file gets passed between departments.
- What does the firm charge for a purchase or sale?
- Quoted fees are all inclusive and start at $2,299 for a purchase and $1,999 for a sale, plus HST, with an online fee calculator on the firm's site for a specific estimate.
