Virtual appointmentsAbout Erudite Law
Erudite Law LLP is a multi-discipline law firm based in Richmond Hill, Ontario, with an office in the Beaver Creek Business Park, serving clients across the Greater Toronto Area and Southern Ontario. The firm was founded in 2017; Alvin Leung, a co-founder, is now its principal lawyer. Its lawyers handle civil litigation, corporate and commercial law, tax law, real estate, wills and estates, and employment law, while family law matters are handled by a lawyer who practices in association with the firm. Some lawyers at the firm trained in the United Kingdom, one holds a Michigan J.D. in addition to an Ontario licence, and others speak French or Cantonese in addition to English.
The tax practice represents clients in disputes with the Canada Revenue Agency, including objections and appeals before the Tax Court of Canada. The real estate group handles purchases, sales, refinancing, and mortgage discharges, and the firm has said it uses tools such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and online payment for real estate files, so clients don't always need to visit the office in person. Erudite Law also publishes a blog commenting on Ontario court and tribunal decisions, on topics such as termination clauses and commercial lease disputes, with posts dating back to 2020.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
Erudite Law's office is a suite in the Beaver Creek Business Park on Granton Drive in Richmond Hill, an industrial and office park with access to Highways 404 and 407, rather than a downtown legal row. That fits a firm whose stated client base is the whole Greater Toronto Area and Southern Ontario rather than one neighbourhood; several practice pages describe handling files by video call and online payment instead of requiring an office visit.
