Virtual appointmentsAbout Zvulony & Co., P.C.
Zvulony & Co., P.C. is a solo civil litigation practice based in North York, Toronto, run by founder and director Gil Zvulony. The firm has practiced law since 2002 and concentrates on defamation, internet law, copyright, and privacy law, along with commercial disputes, foreign judgment enforcement, and notary public services. It's a small operation by design: a single lawyer handling technology-heavy disputes rather than a broad general practice.
Zvulony holds an LL.B from Osgoode Hall Law School (2000) and two Alternative Dispute Resolution certificates from the University of Windsor, Faculty of Law. The practice speaks English and Hebrew. Its court work includes Fortress Real Developments Inc. v. Rabidoux, 2018 ONCA 686, an early test of Ontario's anti-SLAPP legislation, and Niu v. Cao, 2020 ONSC 5407, another successful defence against an anti-SLAPP motion. The firm doesn't offer free consultations or take cases on contingency; a 30-minute initial consultation is billed at a flat $300 plus HST, and meetings can be done by video, phone, or in person.

In-person servicesWho handles what
The neighbourhood
The firm's office is at 28 Finch Ave West, Suite 208, one block west of Yonge Street in North York, within walking distance of Finch subway station on the Yonge line. Free parking is available on site, which matters for a practice built around 30-minute scheduled consultations rather than drop-in visits.
Alongside its litigation work, the firm operates as a notary public and handles a niche service: legal opinion letters, at a flat rate of $249 plus tax, confirming that a divorce or annulment granted outside Canada should be recognized in Ontario, a document the province requires before someone can remarry there. Much of that work, and the firm's broader internet and defamation practice, is done by video call, phone, or mail rather than requiring a visit to the Finch Avenue office.
