About Darren K. Ho Law Firm

Darren K. Ho Law Firm is a sole proprietor general practice founded in 2021 by lawyer Darren Ho, with an office on Finch Avenue East in Scarborough's Agincourt neighbourhood. The firm focuses on family law, wills and estates law, and real estate law, and it serves clients in Toronto and Markham as well as Scarborough. Before opening the firm, Ho worked as a licensed paralegal and spent years alongside senior counsel on family, wills and estates, and real estate files starting in 2013.

Ho's academic background includes an LL.B. from the University of London, a Graduate Professional LLM from the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, and a second LLM from Osgoode Hall Law School, plus a Bachelor of Arts with Honours from York University. Ho articled at the Law Office of Annie A. Cheng and holds a Certificate of Qualifications from the National Committee on Accreditation and membership with the Law Society of Ontario. Staff and lawyers at the firm serve clients in English, Cantonese, and Korean, and the firm can arrange consultations by phone or video conference.

The neighbourhood

The firm's office sits on Finch Avenue East in Agincourt, a Scarborough neighbourhood that grew into what's often called a suburban Chinatown after an influx of Hong Kong Chinese and Taiwanese immigrants during the 1980s brought Chinese shopping plazas and malls to the area along Sheppard Avenue nearby. For a firm whose staff and lawyers serve clients in Cantonese as well as English and Korean, an Agincourt address puts it inside a Chinese Canadian commercial district, close to Toronto and Markham, which the firm also serves.
