Our strength lies in understanding business problems and solving them with outstanding, timely results.

Sotos LLP has been a successful part of our clients’ business affairs for more than 25 years. We act as counsellors in every aspect of business law by offering strategic advice and innovative solutions. Because of our expertise we are frequently called on by governments, media and trade associations for expert advice and commentary on business and franchise-related matters.

Recognized leadership.
Given our unique experience, it’s little wonder that the Canadian Legal LEXPERT Directory recognizes Sotos LLP as having more experts in franchise law than other law firms in Canada - including those many times our size.

In fact, our lawyers are often called upon by other law firms because of our expertise.

We are also recognized in the LEXPERT/ American Lawyer Media Guide to the Leading 500 Lawyers in Canada, The International Who’s Who of Franchising Law and maintain the highest ranking (AV) in Martindale-Hubbell.

Called upon by the media.
Authoritative and experienced, Sotos LLP is called upon to provide insight into business and franchise matters as guest commentators for CBC Newsworld, Global News and Venture as well as to The Globe and Mail, National Post and Canadian Business Magazine. The views that we express publicly are consistent with our core philosophy and with the way we practice.
