Accepts Legal AidAccepts Legal AidAbout WazanaLaw
WazanaLaw is a solo immigration and refugee law practice based at St. Clair Avenue West and Lansdowne Avenue in Toronto's west end. Richard Wazana, the firm's founder, graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in 2005, articled at Green and Spiegel LLP, and was called to the Ontario bar in 2006. The practice has operated independently ever since, concentrating on Federal Court work such as judicial reviews and stay motions, and on appellate work at the Refugee Appeal Division.
Wazana came to law after fifteen years as a child care worker, in both frontline and academic settings, and holds an Honours B.A. from York University, a Master's of Education from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto, and a Master's of Social Work from the University of Toronto. That background in the social sciences shapes a practice built around a large clientele of undocumented persons, covering humanitarian and compassionate applications, sponsorships and appeals, and admissibility matters. Services are offered in English, French and Arabic.
