About Hussain Family Law

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Hussain Law is a Toronto sole practice run by Ayesha Hussain that focuses only on family law and child protection matters. The firm is based in North York at 45 Sheppard Avenue East, near Yonge and Sheppard, and takes on divorce and separation cases, including parenting arrangements, child and spousal support, and the division of property. It represents clients in both the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice.

Beyond litigation, the firm drafts separation agreements, cohabitation agreements, and marriage contracts, and provides independent legal advice on them. It represents parents in child protection investigations and court proceedings, helps clients enforce existing court orders through motions to change, and offers limited scope retainers so a client can hire the firm for part of a case while staying in control of the rest. It accepts Legal Aid certificates and handles high-conflict matters, including cases involving domestic violence or allegations of parental alienation. Consultations are available in person or virtually, and the firm can serve clients in English, Urdu, and Hindi.

Who handles what

The neighbourhood

The office is on Sheppard Avenue East immediately east of Yonge Street, among the office towers that cluster around the Sheppard-Yonge subway station in North York. The Ontario Court of Justice's North York Family Court sits close by at 47 Sheppard Avenue East, also just east of Yonge on the south side of the street, which is a useful location for a practice built entirely around family law and child protection work. The station where the Yonge-University and Sheppard subway lines cross is a short walk away.
