About Dadson Law

Dadson Law is a solo family law practice based in Toronto, run by Dorothea A. Dadson. The office sits inside the Consumers Road Business Park in North York, one of the city's largest concentrations of office jobs. Dadson was called to the Ontario bar in 2002 and practices primarily in family law, appearing at both levels of court in Toronto, Oshawa, Brampton, and Newmarket. The firm handles divorce, custody and access, child and spousal support, Children's Aid Society matters, separation agreements, prenuptial agreements, and property and equalization claims.

Dadson's academic background includes an honours law degree from the University of Manchester, a law degree from the University of Toronto's Faculty of Law, and a master's degree in international human rights from the University of Ottawa, with a research focus on the rights of the child, a combination that lines up closely with a custody heavy practice. Dadson Law is listed in Legal Aid Ontario's directory of family lawyers and can serve clients in English and Twi. Law clerk Zarah Chowdury, a Humber College Paralegal Studies graduate, has worked with the firm for more than three years handling court filings and appearances.

Who handles what

The neighbourhood

Dadson Law's office sits inside the Consumers Road Business Park, a nearly 100 hectare stretch of North York and Scarborough bounded by Victoria Park Avenue, Highway 401, Highway 404, and Sheppard Avenue East. The City of Toronto has described the area as one of the city's most concentrated areas of office jobs, home to more than 18,000 employees. It's a working district rather than a retail strip or a courthouse block, the kind of address suited to a practice built around scheduled meetings and case files rather than walk-in traffic.
