About Beffa Law

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Beffa Law is located on Lakeshore Road West in Oakville, Ontario, close to the town's downtown core. Monica Beffa founded the firm after being called to the Ontario bar in 2018. Beffa holds a bachelor's degree in civil law from the University of Bucharest and a Juris Doctor from the University of Ottawa, and the firm's site notes legal experience in both Canada and the European Union. Before opening the practice, Beffa worked with Bay Street law firms and volunteered with Pro Bono Students Canada.

The practice covers real estate, family law, wills and estates, business law, and immigration, along with notary and commissioner of oaths services. Its notary work includes procura documents and apostille related authentication for clients with ties to Romania, a specialty that traces back to Beffa's civil law training there. The family law side also prepares international divorce opinion letters for clients with matters outside Canada. Beffa has published legal commentary in SLAW and commentary attributed to Beffa appeared in a CTV News interview on landlord rights during the dispute over Hudson's Bay's store lease transfers, according to the firm's own blog.

The neighbourhood

The office is on Lakeshore Road West in Oakville, close to the town's downtown core. Street parking is available out front, and there is free parking one block south on Burnet Street.

The real estate practice reaches beyond Oakville into Milton, Burlington, Mississauga, and Hamilton, so most of the work is regional rather than tied to a single courthouse or registry office nearby. The notary practice reaches further still: clients with family or property ties to Romania come to the Lakeshore Road office for procura documents and apostille related authentication, a service that traces back to Beffa's civil law degree from the University of Bucharest.
