About Stohn Hay Cafazzo Heim Finlay LLP
Stohn Hay Cafazzo Heim Finlay LLP is a Toronto entertainment and media law firm. Stephen Stohn, Ron Hay and David Dembroski founded it in 2003 as Stohn Hay LLP. Diana Cafazzo and Sandra Richmond joined as partners in 2005, and the firm became Stohn Hay Cafazzo Dembroski Richmond LLP. The name has changed again since then as new partners joined, including Angelika Heim and Erin Finlay, and the firm now practises from a single office on King Street East in downtown Toronto.
The firm advises production companies, broadcasters, publishers, recording artists and digital media creators on rights, financing, licensing and distribution across film, television, music and publishing. Its work also covers copyright and broadcast regulatory matters, sponsorship and marketing agreements, and general corporate matters such as incorporations and share or asset purchase agreements. Co-founder Stephen Stohn built a parallel career as a songwriter and television producer, and partner Ron Hay worked for years as a professional violist with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra before turning to entertainment law, backgrounds that carry directly into the firm's work with creative industry clients.
