The neighbourhood

ILM Law's office is in Hunt Street Plaza, a small commercial plaza on Hunt Street in downtown Ajax. Ajax is a waterfront town in Durham Region, in the eastern part of the Greater Toronto Area, about 11 kilometres from Toronto along the Lake Ontario shore. The town began as a planned wartime industrial community and had a population density of 1,900.8 people per square kilometre as of the 2021 census.

That location puts a practice built around immigration, business, real estate, family, and wills and estates work within easy reach of Ajax, Pickering, and Whitby, rather than inside a downtown Toronto office tower.
