Its lawyer and paralegals have appeared before the Superior Court of Justice, Small Claims Court and, in the past, the Financial Services Commission of Ontario for mediations and arbitrations.

The neighbourhood
The firm's Toronto office sits at Bay Street and Yorkville Avenue, inside a 10 storey building at the edge of the Yorkville district, an area known for upscale retail, dining and professional offices rather than a courthouse row. It's a different setting from the firm's Vaughan head office, which anchors the practice north of the city, and its Etobicoke location on Bloor Street West, which puts the firm within reach of clients on the west side of the GTA. Running three locations lets Taverniti | Vashishth LLP meet injury clients closer to where they live, something that matters when a client is recovering from an accident and travel is difficult.
