About TWL Law

TWL Law Professional Corporation is a Toronto litigation firm on Yonge Street, serving individuals and businesses across Ontario. Shana Nodel, J.D. is principal and head of litigation, and the firm's core practice covers insurance litigation, commercial and civil litigation, employment law, and mediation, with a family law practice staffed by additional lawyers. Clients include insurance companies, financial institutions, franchises, dental and medical businesses, investment firms, and staffing and recruitment firms, alongside individuals.

On the insurance side, the firm says it has more than a decade of experience defending both individuals and large national insurers, covering accident benefits, bodily injury defence, coverage opinions, and professional negligence claims. Its mediation practice draws on more than 25 years of experience, handling shareholder, estate, family, real estate, and personal injury disputes as an alternative to formal litigation. In family law, one of the firm's lawyers has practiced family law exclusively for more than 49 years and has served as a dispute resolution officer of the Ontario Superior Court. The firm offers complimentary consultations and flat rate billing options, and says it works to control legal costs through process efficiencies.

The neighbourhood

TWL Law's office is at 3240 Yonge Street, in the M4N postal area of central Toronto, on the stretch of Yonge Street that runs through midtown. It's a Yonge Street office address rather than a courthouse-adjacent one, which fits a practice built around insurance, commercial, employment, and family litigation for clients across Ontario rather than a single local courthouse docket.
