Additionally to being a lawyer, Laurence has great personal interest in the real estate industry and comes from a family of entrepreneurs in that field. Her paternal grand-father was a cabinet maker and her maternal grand-father was an electrical engineer. Both were successful business owners in Quebec. One of those businesses, Société Dupa, a real estate management company, has provided work for three generations of Dutils.

​

In Toronto, Laurence held law-related in-house positions in the parapublic sector in the thriving francophone community of Ontario, of which she is a proud member, namely at the Université de l'Ontario français. She then moved on to private practice at a small law firm where she became an associate practicing mainly real estate law. 

 

Born and raised in beautiful Quebec City, Laurence obtained her Bachelors of Law (LL.B.) at Université Laval, and for one semester completed an exchange program at Dalhousie University’s Faculty of Law in Nova Scotia. Laurence also holds a Master of Arts (MA) in World History & Cultures from King’s College London in the United Kingdom and completed a Master of Laws (LL.M) in Canadian Common Law at Osgoode Hall in Toronto. 

​

Laurence has a DIY attitude when it comes to home renovations and is a history enthusiast with a passion for the preservation and restoration of old homes.

​

In 2022, Laurence launched her own practice and is happy to offer services in both official languages of Canada, English and French.

Darlene grew up in the beautiful City of Stratford in southwestern Ontario. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Ottawa and then moved to London Ontario where she attended Western University to study law, graduating with her LLB in 1988. She always wanted to live in the City and after graduating from Western she moved to Toronto and spent a year articling at the firm of Fraser and Beatty.

 

On her call to the bar, Darlene went to work for a boutique litigation firm that focused on commercial litigation, Bliss & Associates. When the principal of that firm, Harvey Bliss retired he handed the reins to Darlene and she continued to practice litigation running the firm, Bliss & Richards-Loghrin.

In the early 1990’s Darlene decided to change her focus to real estate and has been helping people buy and sell houses in the Beach and Leslieville neighbourhoods for over twenty years.
 

In addition to running her law practice, in the last few years Darlene and her husband Michael have been active fundraisers for various charities providing programs for people living with Parkinson’s Disease. Recently she took a 4 month sabbatical and assisted in the organization and logistics for the Spinning Wheels Tour, a cross Canada cycling event raising funds for the Passion for Parkinson’s Foundation.

Darlene is now ready to focus on the law again and in 2024 joined Junction Law to continue her real estate practice.

Growing up in the Toronto Beaches and hailing from a family with a deep-rooted history in real estate law, Sue has cultivated a strong sense of community and forged numerous relationships over the years.

​

After earning her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Guelph, Sue embarked on a two-decade journey in Graphic Design within the catalogue industry. However, inspired by her mother's legal career, Sue made a transition into real estate law in 2016. This shift not only fueled her thirst for knowledge but also reignited her connection to her local roots in the Toronto Beaches.

​

Beyond her professional endeavors, Sue finds joy in gardening, undertaking her own renovation projects, indulging in her passion for music, and cherishing quality time spent with her family.
