Bianchi Presta LLP is a mid-size, full-service law firm founded in 1993 by three partners, Rudy Bianchi, Domenic Presta, and Santo Veltri. The firm is based in Vaughan, Ontario, and works with individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses ranging from small operations to multinational companies across the Greater Toronto Area and Southern Ontario. Its practice covers real estate and development, construction law, business law, civil litigation, matrimonial and family law, and wills, trusts and estates. The firm's Our People page lists eleven individuals at its Jane Street office.
One of the founding partners, Domenic Presta, had practiced civil litigation and real estate law at another Vaughan firm, Gambin Associates, before co-founding Bianchi Presta LLP in 1993.

The firm describes its Jane Street office as sitting in the heart of Vaughan's growing downtown core.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
Bianchi Presta LLP's office is on Jane Street in Vaughan, a York Region city that Wikipedia's population figures list as the fastest-growing municipality in Ontario between 1996 and 2006, and one that has kept adding office and residential development since. The firm describes itself as an uptown law firm in close proximity to downtown Toronto.
That pace of development lines up with the firm's own focus. Real estate, construction, and municipal and development law make up a large share of its practice, work that tracks closely with a city still filling in new subdivisions, condominiums, and commercial space.
