Lawyer · Grigoras Law · Toronto
Denis Grigoras runs civil and appellate files from a 48th-floor office on King Street West, and, as often as not, from a basement, an airport lounge, or a desk on the other side of an ocean. The reading travels. Nineteen years at the bar, two jurisdictions, and a practice built on the unglamorous bits, the margins, the ledgers, the third read of the pleading. Between all that, there are fish.
D enis was called to the Ontario bar in 2007 and to the Nevada bar the year after. From roughly 2012 to 2017 his practice was weighted heavily toward corporate and commercial transactional work, including share purchases, private placements, the shareholder agreements and corporate plumbing that keep a deal running. Since then, the centre of gravity has shifted to civil and appellate litigation, anchored by commercial disputes and defamation and reputation matters, with recurring work in shareholder disputes, urgent injunctive relief, and appeals.
He runs his files from intake through judgment, personally. Pleadings, examinations, motions, factum, oral argument, all by the same hand from start to finish. This is not a marketing posture. It is, he will tell you, the only way he knows how to keep a file in his head.
Strategic advocacy on complex civil and commercial matters across Ontario courts, from early case assessment through trial and appeal.
Anti-SLAPP motions, media strategy, and reputation-sensitive disputes for individuals and businesses where public statements cause serious harm.
Claims for false commercial statements, slander of title, slander of quality, and online business falsehoods that cause measurable economic loss.
