About Counsel Direct Professional Corporation
Counsel Direct Professional Corporation is a small law firm based in Mississauga, Ontario, serving clients across the Greater Toronto Area. It was founded by lawyer Sharoz Khan, who holds an LLB with Honours and an LLM, and its practice covers real estate, expropriation and development, personal injury, and business and corporate law.
The firm's expropriation work draws on Khan's earlier career as a legal and commercial advisor to transit and infrastructure agencies, including Metrolinx, before founding Counsel Direct. That background now runs the other way: the firm represents property owners responding to government takings, easement negotiations, and the property impacts of transit projects such as the Ontario Line. On the real estate side, the firm handles matters from first home purchases to commercial plaza acquisitions, sale leasebacks, and distressed properties sold through bankruptcy or receivership. Its personal injury work covers car accidents, slip and fall claims, and defective product cases, offered on a free consultation basis.
