Today is a very exciting day for our law firm - as Kormans.ca is now active! Our electronic home is alive and available for your viewing pleasure.
The message behind our website is real. We are experienced real estate & corporate lawyers that truly care about our clients. We look to build relationships and provide the legal expertise that our clients require. In this fast-paced digital world of ours, it is comforting to know that there are real people behind the names and titles. When you get introduced to our law firm for the first time, it is nice to have a reference point about the lawyer that you will meet. Where did they go to school? How many years have they practiced law? What are their practice areas?
In the course of life, there are many real estate and corporate events that many people encounter. Purchasing your first home. Selling that home and purchasing another home. Refinancing. Purchasing a business. Incorporating. Preparing Wills and Powers of Attorney. Each of these matters can be very stressful if you do not have the right support system in place. At Kormans LLP, our job is to make your life easier. When you work with one of our lawyers, you will be walked through the process of your transaction. From beginning to end, our trained professionals will support and guide you. We believe that strong communication and managing expectations are the keys to a successful long-term relationship. We do not view our clients as one-off transactions.
Please feel free to fill out an information form and one of our lawyers will get back to you shortly. We also encourage you to sign up for our newsletter- and receive an update as soon as the latest blog entry is posted. Our blog will have many parts – it will be educational, informative and of course, fun!
Thank you for visiting Kormans.ca and be sure to check back often. Please bookmark our site. Tell your friends and family. We look forward to working with you and having you join our legal family!
Jonathan
Jonathan (aka “The Chosen Lawyer”) was called to the Ontario Bar in 2002, graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in 2001 and completed his Bachelor of Business Administration at The Schulich School of Business (York University) in 1998. In addition to being a Partner at Kormans LLP, Jonathan’s journey in law started as an Associate with a large Bay Street law firm, as well as enjoying a secondment working in-house at Tim Hortons (TDL Group) for almost a year!
Jonathan was an Instructor with OREA, teaching the Real Property Law course to future realtors in Ontario. The Chosen Lawyer is a sought-after lecturer at seminars, team meetings and conferences—often speaking to groups including realtors and mortgage brokers on a variety of legal topics including real estate, corporate/commercial and wills/estates law. He also speaks on non-legal topics including Organization, Productivity, Motivation, Work/Life Balance and Mindfulness. Jonathan adopts a zen-like approach to the practice of law and shares his real-life experience with others in order to help them achieve success and happiness! In order to book The Chosen Lawyer for your next session, please email Jonathan at info@kormans.ca
Before entering the legal field, Jonathan chose to study business as he envisioned having a background in all aspects of business (including accounting, economics, finance, marketing and HR) would prove to be very useful as a lawyer—in understanding and communicating with business clients on their respective businesses and industries. Jonathan has a diverse client base, including many first-time home purchasers, residential clients (purchases, sales, refinances, assignment transactions), corporate/commercial clients (real estate transactions, leases, incorporations, shareholder agreements), as well as assisting clients with preparing wills and powers of attorney.
When he is not in the office or in front of a computer, Jonathan can either be found in the gym, boxing ring, learning a new recipe in the kitchen or on a yoga mat. Jonathan has competed with UFE (Ultimate Fitness Events) and is a double medal winner in the physique category! Jonathan is also an avid animal lover and can usually be found with his trusted pal Ollie (Shih-tzu dog) by his side.
Don’t forget to watch episodes of Podcasts/Docuseries hosted by Jonathan “The Chosen Lawyer”TM on the Kormans LLP YouTube channel or listen to it across all podcast players, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

Good news for first-time home buyers! On May 27, 2025, legislative proposals were introduced in the Parliament to amend the Excise Tax Act by creating a new GST rebate specifically for first-time home buyers.
Purchasing a condominium in Ontario demands more than selecting the right unit! One of the most important aspects of this transaction is a thorough review of the status certificate.
As part of a commercial real estate sale transaction, our office often gets retained during the early part of the transaction in order to review the Agreement of Purchase and Sale (the “APS”).
