Our History

A counsel should fearlessly and diligently represent his or her client and bring to such task not only one's legal training in their law but also common sense and fairness.

Agro Zaffiro had its humble beginnings at the end of World War II, when John Agro, then a Captain in the Canadian army, returned to Canada and attended Osgoode Hall Law School. He was called to the Bar of Ontario in 1949 and set up practice in Hamilton. John Agro went on to distinguish himself as a pre-eminent and distinguished counsel. He established a tradition that lives on at Agro Zaffiro to this day - that a Counsel should fearlessly and diligently represent his or her client and bring to such task not only one's legal training in the law but also common sense and fairness.

John Agro and Nicholas Zaffiro, together with a number of distinguished pioneers such as Donald Cooper, John Parente, Edward Orzel, William Hubar and Michael Baker built the firm from its humble beginnings to the place it occupies today, one which can boast of having mentored the greatest number of articling students in the history of the Hamilton Bar.

Agro Zaffiro now has over 20 lawyers who practice in all areas of the law. While continuing to be located in Hamilton, they have represented clients in courtrooms across Ontario, including Toronto, London, Windsor, Barrie and throughout the Golden Horseshoe.

Agro Zaffiro represents both individual clients and several multi-national corporations in areas as diverse as Insurance, Manufacturing and Land Development.
