About Law Offices of Mak Sultan Professional Corporation

Law Offices of Mak Sultan Professional Corporation is a solo law practice founded in Toronto in 1998. It's based on Dundas Street West in the Islington Village area of Etobicoke, with a second office in Scarborough. Founder Mak Sultan was called to the bar in Ontario by the Law Society of Upper Canada in 1998, after an earlier bar call in Bangladesh in 1980. The academic background behind the practice includes an LL.B. (Hons.) and LL.M. from the University of Dhaka, an M.C.J. from Howard University, and an NCA LL.B. from the University of Ottawa, along with later specializations in maritime and shipping law from the University of Southampton and in international humanitarian law from the University of Ottawa, both completed in 2012.

The firm's practice covers real estate transactions (both residential and commercial), business and corporate law, family law, immigration and citizenship law, civil litigation, and wills and estates. It also advises on maritime and shipping law, including matters before courts in Bangladesh and arbitration in London and Singapore, a specialization not common among general Toronto practices. Sultan also spent four years as a board member of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada, an appointment made by the Governor General of Canada.

The neighbourhood

The firm's main office sits on Dundas Street West in Etobicoke's Islington Village, a commercial strip that has organized as a Business Improvement Area since a former City of Etobicoke bylaw in 1986. The BIA runs the length of Dundas Street West between Montgomery Road and Kipling Avenue and promotes the corridor's independent shops and offices, including a public mural map showcasing local street art along the strip. It's a walkable, small-business stretch rather than a downtown office tower district, which fits a solo practice built around real estate closings and personal legal matters for people living and working nearby. The firm keeps a second office in Scarborough for clients on the other side of the city.
