About Dahab Law

Dahab Law is a litigation focused firm in Richmond Hill, Ontario, founded in 2015 by principal Mireille Dahab. It's a small practice built around three lawyers and law clerks who handle motor vehicle accident and slip and fall claims, long term disability denials, immigration matters, general litigation, corporate and commercial work, wills and estates, and notary services. The firm also lists a second office in Markham.

Dahab built a decade of litigation experience before starting the firm and has appeared before the Federal Court, the Federal Court of Appeal, the Court of Appeal for Ontario, the Superior Court of Justice, and the Licence Appeal Tribunal. The firm's reported decisions include a Court of Appeal ruling in Lingard v. Milne-McIsaac that an insurer had to provide uninsured vehicle coverage, and a Divisional Court judicial review in TTC Insurance Company Limited v. Kolapully that upheld a client's benefits and left the insurer paying $25,000.00 in costs. More recently, the firm filed a proposed class action, Smith v Bluewater Health et al., on behalf of people affected by an October 2023 data breach at five Ontario hospitals.

The neighbourhood

Richmond Hill is one of Ontario's fastest growing municipalities, more than doubling in population since 1991 and reaching over 202,000 residents by the 2021 census. It's also one of the most multicultural communities in York Region: roughly two thirds of residents are visible minorities, and Mandarin, Persian, and Cantonese are among the most common languages spoken at home, alongside English. That mix shapes the kind of legal work a general practice sees locally, from family sponsorship and business immigration applications to routine notarizations for clients from many backgrounds.

Dahab Law's office sits on Elgin Mills Road East in Richmond Hill, and the firm's team reflects some of that local diversity, with staff who speak Portuguese and Spanish in addition to English.
