The Globe and Mail names Samfiru Tumarkin LLP as one of Canada’s Best Law Firms

Samfiru Tumarkin LLP is honoured to announce our recognition by The Globe and Mail, in partnership with Statista, as one of Canada’s Best Law Firms for 2024.

This prestigious award not only underlines our firm-wide excellence, but it specifically highlights our expertise in our key practice areas: employment law, disability law, and personal injury law.

Client advocacy at its finest

Our firm has successfully represented tens of thousands of clients across Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia in employment matters, and assisted individuals in all provinces (except Quebec) with disability issues.

We have achieved strong results in severance package negotiations, while prevailing over insurance companies in long-term disability claim disputes.

Samfiru Tumarkin LLP’s approach combines skilled mediation with courtroom tenacity — setting a high standard for legal excellence in our industry.

“This recognition underscores our commitment to the legal profession and our clients,” says Lior Samfiru, employment lawyer and National Co-Managing Partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.

“Our contributions extend beyond client representation, as we actively engage in shaping legal discourse and practice through media advocacy and thought leadership.”

The Firm’s achievements are further reflected in our standing as the most positively reviewed law firm in Canada on Google — a testament to our commitment to client satisfaction and excellence in legal services.

Legal pioneers

Samfiru Tumarkin LLP has not only made significant strides in legal education and public advocacy, but has also become a pioneer in these realms.

Through our innovative Employment and Disability Law Shows on Corus and Bell radio and TV stations, livestreams, and more than 1,000 media interviews, we have established ourselves as a key resource in clarifying complex legal issues.

Our unique approach, combining expert insights with accessible language, has resonated across TV, radio, and online platforms.

This dedication to public education goes beyond mere dissemination of information. It empowers individuals with the knowledge needed to navigate the legal landscape confidently.

Empowering the public with legal tools

“Innovative tools like the widely-used Pocket Employment Lawyer and the Pocket Disability Lawyer reflect our dedication to providing practical, user-friendly legal resources,” says Sivan Tumarkin, disability lawyer and National Co-Managing Partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.

“These tools have empowered millions of Canadians with crucial legal information, reflecting our firm’s ethos of making quality legal advice more accessible.”

Recognition among peers

The distinction of being among the 200 Canadian firms recognized in 31 legal fields follows a rigorous selection process, based on thousands of recommendations from legal peers and clients.

This recognition is a testament to the esteem we have earned in the legal community for our professional achievements and contributions.

The full list of Canada’s Best Law Firms is available on The Globe and Mail’s website — with an additional feature in the Report on Business Magazine’s December 2023 issue.

We extend our congratulations to all the law firms recognized and express our deepest appreciation to our team of dedicated lawyers and staff.

This accolade is a collective achievement — embodying our firm’s dedication to legal excellence as well as the trust placed in us by our clients and the legal community.
