Corporate-Commercial / Transactional Lawyer
Location: Downtown Toronto (Hybrid)

Are you an experienced Corporate-Commercial lawyer with strong transactional expertise, looking to align your career with meaningful, values-driven work? This is an exciting opportunity to join a progressive downtown Toronto law firm dedicated to advancing social justice and empowering communities.

About the Firm

Our client is a mission-driven law firm that combines legal excellence with a commitment to equality, inclusion, and positive societal change. They advise a wide range of clients—from non-profits and social enterprises to innovative businesses—helping them thrive while advancing broader community goals. Their vision is to leverage the law as a tool for building a fairer, more just society.

The Role

The firm is seeking a mid- to senior-level lawyer with a strong background in corporate-commercial and transactional law. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with corporate structuring, M&A, and commercial contracts, with additional knowledge of charity law considered a valuable asset.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide legal advice on corporate transactions, governance, and commercial matters.

  • Draft and review a wide range of contracts, agreements, and compliance documentation.

  • Lead due diligence processes, negotiations, and the documentation of mergers, acquisitions, and restructurings.

  • Advise on non-profit and charity law issues, including incorporation, compliance, and governance.

  • Build trusted client relationships by understanding goals and delivering practical, strategic solutions.

  • Stay current on developments in corporate, transactional, and charity law.

Qualifications

  • At least 5 years of experience in corporate-commercial/transactional law, gained at a reputable firm or in-house.

  • Strong knowledge of corporate law, deal processes, and governance.

  • Experience advising non-profits or charities is highly desirable.

  • Excellent communication and drafting skills, with the ability to present complex legal issues clearly.

  • A commitment to social justice, inclusion, and community engagement is a significant asset.

Why This Role?

  • Purpose-Driven Work: Use your expertise to support organizations that are making a real difference.

  • Professional Growth: Develop your practice within a collaborative, supportive, and forward-thinking environment.

  • Impactful Files: Work on complex, meaningful projects that reflect your values and contribute to positive change.

If you’re passionate about using the law to create social impact, we want to hear from you.
