Mediation · Ontario, Canada
Lawyer · Clark Farb Fiksel · Toronto
Gary Farb is a partner in his 38th year of practice as a lawyer. He is the visionary and architect behind two firms bearing his name; a 6 person law firm and an arbitration and mediation firm.
He serves as the firms’ general counsel and as a commercial litigator and a mediator, holding a Master of Laws, specializing in a new form of mediation called Transformational Mediation.
Gary has devoted his life’s work to generating high levels of performance from himself, and to calling forth powerful, effective action from those with whom he works. His clients appreciate his candor, and the example he sets for what’s possible in the practice of law.
Aside from his exceptional skill and depth of knowledge related to his profession, Gary has the ability to ‘think outside the box’ when considering a course of action or assessing possible consequences of a particular decision. Very few lawyers seem to have this ability naturally.
As Gary regularly acts as a liaison between high-level staff such as CEO’s, Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents and Officers within his clients’ organizations, he knows firsthand how key legal decisions are made and what clients want from their outside counsel.
Effective lawyers are good at communicating technical information. Gary helps clients leverage that skill for the purposes of relationship building.
