About Elias
Founder. Sole counsel. Your advocate.
A 2021 graduate of Osgoode Hall Law School, Elias Rabinovitch is the founder and sole counsel of Elias Rabinovitch Law, a boutique practice built on two pillars: criminal defence and civil litigation.
His practice splits about evenly between criminal defence and civil litigation, the latter spanning expropriation, WSIB appeals, debt collection, and wrongful dismissal. Every client gets Elias personally, no juniors, no shuffling files. Read more on the blog or our FAQ.
Outside the courtroom, Elias volunteers with the Rexdale Community Health Centre and the Handcuff Status Foundation. He is a member of the Criminal Lawyers Association and Jewish Lawyers of Canada.
