A high-profile Canadian employment lawyer is likely to face disciplinary action for his actions against dissatisfied clients of his law firm.
Lior Samfiru, national co-managing partner of Samfiru Tumarkin, was said to be “abusive, offensive or otherwise inconsistent” with professional standards when he threatened to sue, or did sue, three former clients of his firm, according to the Law Society of Ontario.
He’s expected to be formally reprimanded and ordered to pay $5,000 in costs, according to a CBC report.
