About GDH Family Law

GDH Family Law LLP is a small family law firm based in Concord, a business district in Vaughan just north of Toronto. Co-founding partners Lucy D'Ercole and Shazia Hafiji have each practiced exclusively in family law since being called to the bar. D'Ercole earned a BA (Hons) from York University and a JD from the University of Windsor's Faculty of Law. Hafiji also holds a BA (Hons) from York University, along with a JD from the University of Ottawa. D'Ercole and Hafiji each articled and worked as an associate at a law firm in the GTA before co-founding GDH.

The firm handles the full range of family law matters, including separation, divorce, parenting time and decision-making, grandparent access, child and spousal support, property division, equalization, and the matrimonial home, through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation. Clients can choose full-service representation for their whole case or unbundled, stand-alone help, such as drafting a single agreement or attending one mediation session, so the level of support scales to what a client actually needs. GDH Family Law works from a single office in Vaughan's Concord district and serves clients across the wider GTA, including Markham, Richmond Hill, Mississauga, and Toronto.
