Ruso & Associates is a family law firm based in Oakville, Ontario, with a second office in Richmond Hill. Founder Vincenzo Ruso was called to the Bar of Ontario in 2010 after articling in criminal defence at a Bay Street firm, then moved into family law and built a practice centered on separation, divorce, and high value property division, with particular focus on matters involving business owners and complex compensation structures. Ruso completed mediation training through the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School and now leads the firm's mediation practice alongside its litigation work.
Managing partner Laura Oliver brings nearly three decades in family law to the firm. Oliver was called to the Bar of Ontario in 1997 and founded an independent family law practice in Oakville in 2000, before later joining Ruso & Associates.

The firm's lawyers cover financially complex divorce, mediation and other alternative dispute resolution, domestic contracts, cross border family law, and adoption, and some speak Italian, Greek, Spanish, or French in addition to English.
