About AMH Law

AMH Law is a small law firm based in Scarborough, Ontario, with an office on Sheppard Avenue East in the city's Agincourt area. Ana Maria Hicks founded the practice and works as its Barrister and Solicitor and Notary Public, with courtroom experience before the Superior Court of Justice. The founder is fluent in English and Spanish, a fact reflected throughout the firm's client service. AMH Law concentrates on wills and estates, estate litigation, estate administration, real estate, and corporate law for clients across the Greater Toronto Area, describing its approach as forthright and personalized, particularly for clients navigating estate matters during difficult family circumstances.

A defining feature of the practice is its language and cross-border reach. AMH Law serves clients in English and Spanish and has built a network of correspondents in Mexico, Colombia, Costa Rica, Spain, and Venezuela to assist with legal matters that cross into those jurisdictions. The firm also offers notarization, authentication, legalization, and apostille services, along with certified English to Spanish translation.

The neighbourhood

AMH Law's office sits on Sheppard Avenue East in Agincourt, a Scarborough neighbourhood that grew into one of the Greater Toronto Area's major Chinese Canadian commercial districts after waves of Hong Kong and Taiwanese immigration in the 1980s. The firm's own client base draws on a different strand of the city's multilingual character. Ana Maria Hicks built the practice around English and Spanish service and a network of correspondents across Latin America, a niche that sits alongside, rather than inside, the Chinese malls and plazas the corridor is best known for.
