About Steinbergs LLP

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Steinbergs LLP is a Toronto law firm founded in 1972 by Irwin Steinberg, working out of an office on Yonge Street in North York. The firm practises business law, real estate, litigation, wills, trusts and estate planning, family law, mediation, and labour and employment law, and it added a tax practice in 2015. Clients range from small owner-operated businesses and individuals to large multinational corporations.

One thread runs through the firm's history since its early years: a client base among pharmacists. One of Irwin Steinberg's first clients was a pharmacist who went on to own a major Toronto pharmacy chain, and the pharmacy sector remains a key client base for the firm. Recent matters handled by the business and litigation groups have included a $25 million sale of a group of luxury automobile dealerships, the $9.5 million sale of a pharmacy company to CloudMD Software and Services Inc., and an injunction that froze more than $7 million in assets in a commercial fraud case.
