About Sotos LLP

Sotos LLP is a Toronto based business law firm with a second office in Vancouver. Its own site says it's been advising clients for more than 40 years, and franchise law is where it's built its deepest track record. Chambers Canada has placed the firm in Band 1 for Franchising for ten years running, most recently in its 2025 edition, and describes it as known for representing both franchisors and franchisees across sectors that include automotive, food and beverage, and hospitality.

Beyond franchising, the firm practices corporate and commercial law, mergers and acquisitions, securities, intellectual property, and employment law for employers, with added sector knowledge in automotive, grocery, restaurants, and cannabis. A separate practice group, Sotos Class Actions, takes on plaintiff side class actions nationally, in areas that range from privacy breaches and price fixing to workplace overtime disputes and Indigenous child welfare claims, and Chambers Canada has ranked that group too, for Dispute Resolution: Class Action (Plaintiff). In its 2025 edition, The Best Lawyers in Canada ranked ten of the firm's lawyers across five practice areas.
