About Mors & Tribute

Mors & Tribute is a small tax law firm in downtown Toronto, founded in April 2022 by tax lawyer Bhuvana Rai. The name comes from the Latin words for death and taxes, life's two certainties. The firm says it doesn't pay for, or accept, referral fees, so referrals go to whichever lawyer suits the client's matter rather than a financial arrangement.

Rai graduated from the University of Toronto's law school in 2014, after an undergraduate degree in philosophy at the University of Calgary, and was called to the bar in 2015. The same year, Rai began a clerkship at the Tax Court of Canada and a part time LL.M. in taxation at Osgoode Hall Law School, completed in 2017. Tax litigation counsel work at the Department of Justice in Ottawa came next, then private practice at Borden Ladner Gervais LLP in Ottawa and EY Law in Toronto, before founding Mors & Tribute in 2022.

The firm's second lawyer, Mukta Batra, handles commercial and estates litigation, professional regulation, and labour disputes, with earlier litigation experience in Ontario, California, and India. The two lawyers together cover CRA disputes, tax litigation before the Tax Court of Canada and the Federal Courts, tax planning, and estate planning.
