Joshua Solomon Schachnow

Schachnow Law is a Toronto firm practising Canadian immigration law and Ontario employment law , founded by Joshua Schachnow. We act for clients across Canada and around the world. A lawyer licensed in Canada reviews and files every matter, working on software we built ourselves.

Josh is a Toronto lawyer who has practised immigration law for more than nine years. He has helped individuals and companies through work permits, permanent residence, study permits, citizenship, and LMIAs, and he leads the firm's Ontario employment work on the employee side.

He also cofounded a legal technology company, and that is why this firm runs on its own software. It does the assembly, the extraction, and the cross-checking, so a lawyer can read every page of a file and the fee can still be flat.

Josh believes quick, thoughtful communication matters more than almost anything else in getting a file through, and that clients should hear the realistic version of their odds rather than the encouraging one.
