About Mida Law

Mida Law is a small, client-focused law firm based in North York, serving Toronto and the wider Greater Toronto Area. Its office sits in the Consumers Road Business Park, a concentrated employment corridor near Highway 401 and Highway 404 that the City of Toronto has been studying for future growth under its ConsumersNext planning initiative. The firm's principal lawyer, Fahmida Akhter, is licensed by the Law Society of Ontario and brings over 15 years of combined legal experience across Ontario and abroad, including prior family and civil dispute resolution roles abroad and experience supporting Ontario family law matters.

The practice centres on family law: separation, divorce, parenting arrangements, child and spousal support, property division, and relocation, plus limited-scope help for clients who want to handle part of a matter themselves. It also prepares wills and powers of attorney, including Islamic wills drafted to be valid under Ontario law, and offers notary services, independent legal advice, and guidance on employment and immigration matters, from reviewing a severance offer to assessing which immigration category might apply. A distinct part of the work is Muslim family law: the firm is attentive to cultural context and can discuss how an Islamic marriage contract may be treated within Ontario's legal framework, while being clear it doesn't issue religious rulings. Services are offered in English, French, and Bengali, with consultations conducted virtually by default.

The neighbourhood

The firm's North York office sits inside the Consumers Road Business Park, an area the City of Toronto describes as one of its most concentrated clusters of office jobs, home to more than 18,000 employees. The business park falls between Highway 401 to the south and Highway 404 to the west, a location built more for regional commuters than local foot traffic. Toronto's ConsumersNext study has been looking at how to add housing and public space to the corridor alongside its offices. Mida Law's own practice fits that regional, drive-in character: consultations run virtually by default, and the firm describes itself as serving clients across Ontario rather than just the immediate area.

Frequently asked questions

I'm separating from my spouse in North York. Can Mida Law help with parenting and support?
Yes. The firm works with separating and divorcing clients on parenting time, decision-making, child and spousal support, and drafting or reviewing separation agreements, and it offers a free 30 minute initial consultation to start.
Can Mida Law prepare a will that reflects Islamic principles?

I was just handed a severance offer. Can Mida Law review it before I sign?
Reviewing a termination or severance offer and explaining general rights under Ontario law is one of the firm's employment law services, though the exact scope of what it can take on is confirmed with each client individually.
I'm looking into a family sponsorship or study permit application. Does Mida Law handle immigration matters?
The firm assists with family and personal immigration as well as academic and student immigration, including application reviews and post-refusal options, but it doesn't take on corporate immigration, humanitarian applications, or refugee matters.
Someone else drafted a separation agreement and wants me to sign. Can Mida Law give me independent advice on it first?
