About Landings LLP

Landings LLP is a Toronto immigration and refugee law firm founded in 2020 by lawyers Erin Simpson, Jacqueline Swaisland and Warda Shazadi Meighen. The firm is based on Adelaide Street East in Toronto's downtown core and focuses exclusively on immigration and refugee law, representing people seeking refugee protection, permanent and temporary immigration status and Canadian citizenship. Its lawyers regularly appear before the Immigration and Refugee Board and at every level of court up to the Supreme Court of Canada, and the firm offers services in eight languages, including French, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Swahili and Haitian Creole in addition to English.

The firm's lawyers bring varied backgrounds to the practice. One partner is a former member of the Immigration and Refugee Board's Immigration Division who teaches as adjunct faculty at several Ontario law schools, and another spent years as an adjunct professor at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law after contributing to Rwandan genocide prosecutions at a United Nations tribunal. In 2026 the firm welcomed Allan Rock, K.C., a former federal Minister of Justice, Minister of Health and Minister of Industry who later served as Canada's Ambassador to the United Nations and as President of the University of Ottawa from 2008 to 2016. The Globe and Mail has named Landings LLP to its list of Canada's Best Law Firms for 2023 and again for 2025.
