Our team of senior lawyersbased in Toronto

Maurice Vaturi serves as Senior Counsel at VC Lawyers — the firm's most senior advisor on complex civil and corporate matters. Maurice's caseload is intentionally narrow. He works alongside the partners on files that demand the most experience: high-value commercial disputes, intricate real-estate transactions, and personal-injury files where strategic judgement on settlement-versus-trial decisions matters more than procedural execution.

Maurice is part of the Vaturi family that gives the firm half of its name. The role of Senior Counsel exists, in part, so that even an associate-led file at VC Lawyers benefits from the instincts of a senior practitioner at the moments those instincts matter most.

To reach Maurice directly, email mvaturi@vclawyers.ca or call the firm. Detailed credentials, education, bar-admission year, and notable cases will be published on Maurice's individual profile page when content is finalised.

Avi Vaturi is one of the firm's two named partners and leads the real-estate and corporate-commercial practice. Real estate at VC Lawyers means residential and commercial purchases, sales and refinances; title insurance and mortgage closings; title-fraud rectification; and litigation when transactions go sideways. The firm's real-estate group has closed more than 4,000 files. Corporate work spans business incorporations under OBCA and CBCA, shareholder agreements, share and asset purchases, commercial leases, supplier and distribution contracts, and corporate governance.

Avi works directly with Toronto's Hebrew-speaking community alongside his English-speaking practice. He is the lawyer most clients meet when their need crosses both real-estate and corporate-commercial lines — a pattern especially common for small-business owners who are buying premises, structuring family ownership, or planning succession.

To reach Avi directly, email avaturi@vclawyers.ca. Detailed credentials and case history will appear on Avi's individual profile page when content is finalised.

Jae Hyon Cho is one of the firm's two named partners and leads the personal-injury and civil-litigation practice. The personal-injury group represents accident victims across the full range of motor-vehicle, catastrophic, premises-liability, workplace and disability files — including the SABS / Licence Appeal Tribunal disputes that decide whether an accident benefits claim is funded at the standard $65,000 limit or the catastrophic-impairment limit of more than $1 million. The civil-litigation group handles commercial disputes, contract enforcement, and Superior Court of Justice matters.

Jae handles Korean-language files end-to-end, alongside his English practice. He is the lawyer the firm's Korean-speaking clients most often work with, whether the matter is a car-accident claim, a wrongful-death file, an employment dispute, or a cross-border family-asset question. When a Korean-speaking client's matter touches Korea-side assets, family relationships, or court proceedings, Jae coordinates with the firm's Seoul lawyer network so both sides of the file move together.

Jae publishes legal education content for Korean-speaking accident victims on Instagram (@jaecho_lawyer) and YouTube (@jaethelawyer). To reach Jae directly, email jcho@vclawyers.ca.

Jun Ki Lee is an associate at VC Lawyers and works primarily on the firm's Korean-language personal-injury, civil-litigation and disability files. In practice that means he is on the file from the intake call through the SABS application, the medical-evidence assembly, the negotiation with the at-fault insurer, and — if necessary — the Licence Appeal Tribunal hearing or Superior Court trial. He works closely with Jae Hyon Cho on the Korean-language side of the practice.

Jun is also the firm's primary point of contact for Korean-speaking clients on questions that do not strictly need a partner's involvement — case status updates, document review, evidence collection, and the dozens of practical questions that come up between major file milestones. The intent of the structure is that a Korean-speaking client never has to wait for partner availability to get a substantive answer in their first language.

To reach Jun directly, email jun@vclawyers.ca. Detailed credentials and case history will be published on Jun's individual profile page when content is finalised.

Allan Weiss is an associate at VC Lawyers and works primarily on the firm's civil-litigation and corporate-commercial files. Allan supports both partners on the files that span both practices — commercial disputes, shareholder litigation, contract enforcement, and the corporate side of estate matters where business interests need to be unwound or transferred between generations.

Allan also supports the personal-injury group on appellate work and on civil-claim aspects of complex catastrophic files where the same incident gives rise to both a tort claim and a separate cause of action against a non-driver defendant.

To reach Allan directly, email aweiss@vclawyers.ca. Detailed credentials, education, and case history will appear on Allan's individual profile page when content is finalised.

Kate Min Kwon is the firm's Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC R529664; RQIC 11726, additionally licensed in Quebec). Kate leads the immigration practice — family sponsorship, spousal sponsorship, parental and grandparental sponsorship, work and study permits, permanent residence applications, and refusal appeals. Korean-speaking clients work with Kate end-to-end; the firm's lawyers consult on her files when an immigration matter intersects with criminal, family-law, or employment questions.

Immigration is regulated in Canada under the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC). Kate's RCIC and RQIC numbers are publicly verifiable through the CICC and the Quebec Ministry's registries respectively.

To reach Kate directly, email kate@vclawyers.ca. A detailed practice description — including the specific visa categories handled, success rates by application type, and notable refusal-appeal results — will be published on Kate's individual profile page when content is finalised.
