CHARLIE FUHR

Lawyer

As an estate litigator, Charlie has been involved in many types of estate litigation matters at DSF. Some of them include will challenge matters, testator capacity matters, power of attorney disputes, removal of estate trustees and many others. His approach to litigation is suited for the often emotional and difficult nature of estate disputes as he recognizes the crucial importance of this particular time in his client’s lives. By constantly looking for innovative strategies to engage with, Charlie is able to minimize the pressure of litigation while still reaching favourable results for his clients with the least impact on their relationships. This mindfulness has helped Charlie stay ahead of his competitors.

Charlie Fuhr joined Devry Smith Frank LLP (‘DSF’) as an associate lawyer in our commercial litigation, insurance defence, estate litigation and personal injury departments. He graduated with a BSc (Hons) and earned a double JD from the University of Windsor and the University of Detroit Mercy. He was called to the Bar in 2020.

Prior to DSF, Charlie worked for a boutique firm in Toronto practicing in the areas of personal injury, civil and commercial litigation. He has represented clients in matters before various courts and tribunals, including the License Appeal Tribunal, Small Claims Court, Superior Court of Ontario, and Court of Appeal for Ontario.
