The neighbourhood
Dhillon Murthi Law's office sits in an office suite on Tranmere Drive in Mississauga, in Peel Region. Peel is one of the most ethnically diverse regions in the country: Statistics Canada's 2021 census found South Asian residents made up the largest racialized group in Peel, at 37.4% of the population. That context lines up with how the firm describes its own approach, family law work handled with attention to the cultural dynamics that can come up in a South Asian household, alongside real estate, wills and estates, and child protection files for families across the Greater Toronto Area.
Harminder S. Dhillon is a member of the Peel Law Association, the professional body for lawyers practicing in the region where the firm's office is based.
