DeRusha Law Firm

About DeRusha Law Firm

DeRusha Law Firm is a family, civil, and business law firm based in Mississauga, Ontario, operating from an office on Matheson Boulevard East for more than 25 years. Lawyer Haig DeRusha founded the firm in 1994. Three lawyers now practice there, working in family law, family and estate mediation, business and corporate law, criminal defence, employment law, civil litigation, and wills and estates. Between them they speak English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, and Punjabi, and the firm serves clients across Mississauga, Brampton, Toronto, Vaughan, Milton, and Oakville.

The firm leans heavily on mediation as an alternative to litigation. Haig DeRusha is certified through the Family Dispute Resolution Institute of Ontario as a mediator and can draft a legally binding separation agreement directly rather than referring clients elsewhere, and the firm works alongside a registered social worker who practices as a marriage and family therapist to support clients through separation. Haig DeRusha, a Family Law Specialist certified by the Law Society of Ontario, has also taught in the Bar Admission Program for new Ontario lawyers and was designated by the Superior Court of Ontario as a Dispute Resolution Officer in family law conferences.
