About Raoul Boulakia

Raoul Boulakia is a solo immigration, refugee, and citizenship law practice at 10 Alcorn Avenue in midtown Toronto, in practice since 1990. Boulakia is certified by the Law Society of Ontario as a specialist in Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Law and appears regularly before the Immigration and Refugee Board and the Federal Court. The practice covers family sponsorship and humanitarian applications, refugee claims and appeals, citizenship applications and revocation cases, and litigation that can reach the Federal Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada.

Boulakia studied political science at the University of Toronto and earned a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1988, then launched the practice two years later. The firm takes on legal aid cases and has represented some clients without a fee when they didn't qualify for legal aid. Boulakia has served on the executive of the Refugee Lawyers Association of Ontario. In 2009, Boulakia represented Suaad Hagi Mohamud, detained in Kenya in a passport dispute over Mohamud's identity, a case that drew national media attention.
