About Emerald Legal Professional Corporation

Before that, Razzak had already built a legal career in Bangladesh, practicing law there from 1997 and later teaching commercial and corporate law as an assistant professor at East West University. Razzak holds an LL.B and LL.M from the University of Dhaka and a further LL.M in International Commercial Law from the University of Nottingham in the UK.

The firm handles residential and commercial real estate closings, business incorporations and closings, mortgage enforcement and power of sale proceedings, estate planning and administration, and civil and family litigation for clients across the Greater Toronto Area. It also acts for private lenders, preparing and registering private mortgage financing on their behalf. Its real estate work extends to severances of land under the Planning Act, and its estate practice covers wills, powers of attorney, probate and estate litigation.

The neighbourhood

The firm's office is on Danforth Avenue near Victoria Park Avenue, at the eastern end of the stretch known as East Danforth, close to the Scarborough border. It's a low-rise residential part of the Danforth that developed as a streetcar suburb from the 1910s through the 1930s and is now served by the Bloor-Danforth subway line. The area is home to a mix of long-time homeowners and newer immigrant communities, a fitting setting for a general practice firm handling residential real estate closings, wills and small business matters for local clients.
