Youngman Law

Frequently asked questions

What areas of law does Youngman Law handle?

The firm works in five main areas: business and corporate law, real estate, wills and estate matters, debt collection, and civil litigation, and it also takes on employment matters such as wrongful dismissal claims.

Can Youngman Law help me buy a home near Yonge and Eglinton?

Yes. The firm's real estate lawyers help first time buyers negotiate offers, review status certificates, arrange mortgage paperwork, and complete closings, working out of the office at Yonge and Eglinton in midtown Toronto.

A customer or client owes my business money, can Youngman Law help me collect it?

The firm's debt collection practice typically starts with a demand letter, and if that doesn't bring a response, the next step is usually a statement of claim. Youngman Law is a member of the National Association of Retail Collection Attorneys and has represented Canadian banks, collection agencies, and individual creditors. Fees can be hourly or contingency based, so on a contingency file a client only pays once money is collected.

Can Youngman Law prepare my will and help me name an executor?

Yes. The firm's wills and estates lawyers prepare wills that set out how assets are distributed, can name a guardian for minor children, and appoint an executor or estate trustee to carry out the plan.

I think I was let go without proper notice, can Youngman Law review my case?

Youngman Law's employment law work covers constructive dismissal, termination without just cause, statutory notice and severance disputes, and workplace disability and harassment matters.
