Sean N. Zeitz

Sean is known for resolving challenging and often exceptional cases with an emphasis on bankruptcy and insolvency, debtor-creditor matters, receiverships, proposals and security enforcement. Since joining LZW in 2004, he’s developed a unique expertise advising clients and litigating debtor/creditor disputes involving guarantees, fraud, transfers at undervalue, injunctive relief and bankruptcy disputes that intersect with Family Law. He is also a “lawyer’s lawyer” acting as counsel to LawPRO, the company that provides professional liability insurance to Ontario lawyers.

Sean’s clients include financial institutions, secured and unsecured creditors, debtors, trustees in bankruptcy and receivers. Straightforward and approachable, Sean’s clients appreciate his creative and often “outside the box” solutions, attentiveness to their needs and candid advice.

He holds a dual certification by The Law Society of Ontario as a Specialist in both Civil Litigation and Bankruptcy and Insolvency Law in recognition of his ethical standards as well his procedural and substantive knowledge in these specialty areas.

While not litigating, Sean enjoys travelling and spending time with his wife and two kids. He very recently took up golfing five years ago and readily acknowledges his swing leaves much to be desired.
