Tyas Family Law Professional Corporation is a Toronto family law firm. It was founded by Julie Tyas, who holds a B.A. (Hons) in Psychology from Wilfrid Laurier University and an LL.B. from the University of Windsor. The firm handles parenting arrangements, property division, child and spousal support, and domestic contracts such as cohabitation agreements and marriage contracts. It also offers flat fee divorces and takes on international divorce matters, and its parenting work extends to grandparent access issues.
Rather than defaulting straight to court, the firm works through several paths: negotiation, mediation, mediation-arbitration, Collaborative Family Law, and litigation when it's necessary. Two law clerks support the practice. Anahit Singh holds a Law Clerk Diploma from Seneca College and is fluent in Punjabi, and Lauren Turcotte is a Durham College law clerk graduate. The office sits in the former Gendron Manufacturing Company building on Richmond Street East, a heritage-designated structure built in 1895.
