Job description

Litigation Lawyer – Associate Position in Toronto (3–5 Years' Call)

Location: Toronto, Ontario (Hybrid – 3 days in office, 2 days remote)

Salary: $110,000 – $130,000 + discretionary bonus

Low Billing target: 1,100 hours

Practice Areas: Litigation, Administrative Law, Employment Law, Not-for-Profit Governance

About This Toronto Litigation Lawyer Opportunity

Our client, a Toronto law firm with a strong social justice orientation, is seeking a junior-to-mid-level litigation associate with 3–5 years' call. This is a genuinely mixed mandate — part litigation, part solicitor work — and would suit an Ontario lawyer who wants breadth rather than early specialization, and who wants their day-to-day work to matter.

If you are searching for litigation lawyer jobs in Toronto that combine tribunal advocacy with meaningful advisory work, this associate role offers early carriage, real courtroom exposure, and a manageable 1,100-hour billing target.

Responsibilities of the Litigation Associate

  • Carrying a varied litigation caseload, including Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) files, Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario (HRTO) applications, and Small Claims Court proceedings
  • Appearing before Ontario tribunals and courts, with real carriage of files and early responsibility
  • Advising on governance matters for charities, not-for-profits, and co-operatives
  • Handling employment law matters
  • Drafting, reviewing, and advising on commercial contracts and construction contracts

Qualifications: What This Toronto Law Firm Is Looking For

  • 3–5 years' call to the Ontario Bar, in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario
  • Experience appearing before administrative tribunals and/or courts is strongly preferred
  • Comfort moving between contentious and advisory work, and between subject areas
  • Strong drafting, file management, and client-facing skills, with the judgment to run matters with limited supervision
  • A demonstrated interest in and commitment to social justice is a significant asset

Compensation and Benefits

  • Salary: $110,000 – $130,000, depending on year of call
  • Bonus: Discretionary bonus of up to 5%, depending on firm revenues
  • Billing target: 1,100 hours
  • Work model: Hybrid — 3 days in office, 2 days remote (Toronto)

Cartel Inc. and our client are equal opportunity employers. Accommodations are available on request for candidates taking part in all aspects of the selection process — please let us know if you require accommodation.
