Prior to attending law school, Natalia grew up working at her family’s condominium management company where she developed a keen interest in everything condo. It was only natural that a legal career in condo law would follow.
Natalia summered and articled at Lash Condo Law where she further fostered her love for condos. Natalia developed an expertise in all the recent amendments to the Condominium Act, 1998 and the resulting forms, drafted dozens of condominium documents including by-laws, rules and agreements, and dealt with current issues such as Airbnb and the legalization of Cannabis.
Natalia has also represented clients before many levels of Courts and administrative tribunals, including the Toronto Small Claims Court, Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Divisional Court of Ontario as well as the Condominium Authority Tribunal. She has also represented condo corporations at mediations and arbitrations.
As a condo resident and former assistant condo manager, Natalia offers a unique perspective and understands the array of issues condo corporations face daily. Natalia hopes to use this perspective to provide condo corporations practical and cost-driven results.
On her off time, Natalia enjoys traveling, finding hiking spots around the GTA and is always on the hunt for the best seafood place in Toronto.
Natalia has represented clients successfully before the Condominium Authority Tribunal.
