The neighbourhood
The office sits on Village Centre Court in Mississauga's City Centre, the planned downtown core that grew up around Square One Shopping Centre, which opened in 1973, and the Mississauga Civic Centre, completed in 1987. It's a district built from farmland into office towers and high rise condominiums rather than a historic main street, and it now doubles as Mississauga's municipal seat and commercial hub. That mix suits a practice that splits its time between commercial litigation for local businesses and wills, powers of attorney, and estate work for the growing residential population in the surrounding towers.
