About Aila Makooli, Barristers and Solicitors

Aila Makooli, Barristers and Solicitors is a solo law practice on Lawrence Avenue West in Toronto. The lawyer behind the firm, Aila Makooli, holds a degree in English Literature from the University of Toronto and a J.D. from Bond University in Australia. After law school, Makooli worked at a small immigration law firm, then at Andrew Rogerson Professional Corporation and N. Gregory McNally & Associates, gaining what the firm's site describes as both domestic and international legal experience.

The practice covers immigration law, including U.S. immigration matters, along with residential real estate, business and corporate law, and personal injury files. The firm's site also says Makooli has experience in international tax planning, international real estate syndications, and offshore transactions, which isn't the usual mix for a solo Toronto practice. Real estate clients get help with purchase and sale agreements for new, resale, and condominium homes, plus mortgage discharges and title insurance. Business clients get help with incorporation, shareholder agreements, and partnership agreements, as well as asset and share purchase agreements. The firm doesn't charge for an initial case evaluation, which for immigration matters includes determining a client's immigration and citizenship qualifications.
