The neighbourhood
WhatAboutLaw's main office sits on Harwood Avenue South, the commercial spine of downtown Ajax, an area of shops, restaurants, and tree lined streets near the Ajax GO Station. The town takes its name from the British warship HMS Ajax, and its downtown streets carry the names of the ship's officers, a detail tied to Ajax's start as a Second World War munitions town.
The firm also keeps a University Avenue address in downtown Toronto, on the same street as several of the city's courthouses, a useful spot for a practice that includes family law, small claims, and Landlord and Tenant Board matters.
