Working with Leena was a deeply grounding experience during one of the most stressful times of my life. She’s not only knowledgeable and strategic, but also carries a quiet confidence that gave me reassurance when I needed it most. Leena took the time to really understand my case, offering guidance that was both realistic and compassionate. She never made me feel like just another file—she made me feel heard.
What stood out most was her ability to stay calm and composed, even in complex or emotionally charged situations. She knows how to navigate the system with precision while still honouring the human side of family law. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, thoughtful, and truly invested in her clients’ well-being, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leena.

It can be so difficult to come by a genuinely honest, passionate, and caring family lawyer. However, Ms. Yousefi and her entire firm are trustworthy, reliable, extremely friendly and always professional. I really don’t know what I would have done without her on my side. I would not wish a divorce or custody battle on my worst enemy but if you have to go through it, you will need Yousefi and her team.

I am normally not the type to write a review but I am so thankful for everything that Leena has done for me that I recommend her and her firm to anyone who needs help. I spent three years with my previous lawyer while my case went no where and they ran up my retainer. Within 6 months of hiring Leena we were able to settle my case. She put opposing counsel and my unreasonable ex in their place. Because of her I was able to spend Christmas with my son and we still have a roof over our heads. Thank you so much Leena!!!

I would highly recommend Leena Yousefi and all the staff at YLaw. They have all been very supportive and professional throughout this very difficult time. I finally feel like I have a voice

I do not recommend Leena or YLaw. I feel robbed. I retained this firm with specific requests and NONE of my requested were completed or even attempted. Instead I was billed for things that I did NOT request. My retainer we burned through within few weeks of retaining YLaws services. When I wanted to discuss my bill, they refused to talk to me at all unless I gave them 5k immediately. This firm is unprofessional and unethical. I’ve rated this firm as low as possible as this is accurate for what I experience. Going with YLaw was a mistake and one I seriously regret. I was just a number from start to finish.

My Ex lied to police and MCFD,took my son away and prevented access for about 15 months. Legal matters were complex. Leena had represented me with integrity. Leena had to deal with many false accusations and other problems created by my Ex and her lawyers. I had to hire another lawyer due to timing and how things proceeded. We still kept in contact. I had to attend trial myself for 10 days against her team of lawyers. The judge gave me additional time to prepare for a final day of submissions. Leena dropped everything to work on my case immediately after getting back from vacation and attended trial to represent me with less than a week to prepare! There are no words to describe what she has done for my son and my family! Leena presented arguments as if she was present during the entire trial. Without a doubt, my son has been given a second chance with my family and me due to Leena’s selfless act. Leena had many family obligations and brought her 3-month-old baby while attending trial!

There is no feeling in the world like the feeling that you are completely lost and drawing and someone is just there holding you up and taking you to safety.I don't know what I would have done if Leena wasn't there protecting me throughout out my divorce journey. She was very quick at moving my case forward and made such strong arguments in front of the mediator and my ex that they didn't have any choice but to agree and settle on really good terms. My children didn't have to suffer for years as a result of a nasty divorce and I am finally able to move on and onto a new life. Couldn't recommend Leena more. She is sharp, fair, unbiased and truly cares.

Leena is a very competent lawyer with an in-depth knowledge of family law yet what's more, she has the necessary smarts to know how to apply it with an acute clarity that commands respect in the courtroom. A single consultation was all I needed to put my trust in her and she did the rest, allowing me to get on with my life on my terms. She's honest and at the top of her game.

I do not agree with the (only) negative comment below for various reasons. The person who wrote that comment is someone who told Leena not to work on her file due to financial reasons and after several months, expected Leena to remember all the deadlines on the case and to assist her despite telling Leena to do the opposite (read the response to the comment). I have also worked with Leena for several months at her new office and have experienced nothing but professionalism and efficiency when it comes to her work and her staff. She gets back to my calls and emails almost always on the same day and at the latest the next day. Leena as my lawyer guides and simplifies my divorce process for me is one of the hardest working people I know.
Yours Truly,Alice Titman

The below comment is not accurate based on my experience with ms. Yousefi. I have been a client of Ms.Yousefi for 6 years for a reason. Her quality of service has never changed. it has even gotten better. There have been times when she emails or works in my case at midnight on a Friday night if my case is urgent. What i love about her is that she has always been humble and gives a piece of her heart to her cases. I have watched her grow over the years through her toreless efforts and wish her all the best. I will always be her client.

Used to be good, but ever since move to new office has dropped the ball. Not keeping appointments, not communicating; unprofessional conduct (making things personal). Seems more concerned with optics than the legal situation of the client. Was impressed after reading comments and I do not like writing negative reviews but they only added to my stress and set my case back weeks. Be careful if you do decide to retain anyone in this firm.

I've worked with Leena for few months now related to my divorce and I've found her to be a very caring, knowledgeable lawyer who really wants to do the right thing for her client. It is very easy to talk to her without getting the feeling that she is trying to overcharge you. In fact, she usually has charged me for less time than she has actually spent. With her being on my side, I've had a high confidence about going through a tough phase of my life with less pain and I'm very appreciative of her support to make this happen. Highly recommended.

Leena Yousefi is a top family lawyer and the best family lawyer I have ever encountered, no questions about it. Her team and herself will bend over backwards to make sure you feel like you are at home with a family that is there to support you through every stage of your journey. She is extremely sharp and compassionate, and will do anything to make sure you walk out of her door a happy and satisfied client. Leena Yousefi and I will be life long friends because that is how she treated me - not a mere money sign but a real person. Thank you Leena and team for everything you have done for me.

After very frustrating experience with a "prominent" senior lawyer(QC), Leena was like a fresh breeze. Dedicated, compassionate, creative, persistent and caring, she always looks for a solution and would never gives up. Leena is truly a remarkable lawyer and a beautiful human being that puts her heart and soul in to my case. Leena is very honourable and honest. Contrary to the opposing pervious lawyer, Leena always wanted to bring an end to the lawsuit asap and not to prolong the case. She was very frustrated with the previous opposing lawyer who wanted to unscrupulously antagonize and drag the case. I sincerely believe in Leena and think she is the best lawyer I have ever encountered. Leena and her wonderful assistant Victoria helped me in difficult times. Although, due to complication of my case and intransigence of my ex, we are still fighting to resolve the issue and we have a trial soon. However, I have no doubt and I am absolutely confident, we are going to prevail and win.

After 5 years of fighting in a very acrimonious divorce and of getting nowhere with my previous lawyer, I was extremely fortunate to meet Leena. It took her 5 months to get me out of an incredible mess. If you are looking for a caring, knowledgeable, efficient and passionate young lawyer, look no further. I promise you: you will not find a better lawyer or a better person! I am forever grateful.

I was involved in a 7 year very acrimonious case and after sending over $200,000 on my previous lawyer who got me no results, I hired Leena Yousefi. Leena waved a white flag and at the same time got me a settlement which was better than my wildest dreams! She finished my case in less than 2 months and charged me a fraction of how much I previously paid. Couldn't recommend Ylaw and Leena enough.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Leena has been. She is extremely knowledgable, sharp, effective and caring. She guided me beautifully on getting through my Separation Agreement. I had a pressing issue while she was on holidays and she took the time to work on my case. She has always gotten back to me in a timely manner and guided me on how to get the best possible resolution in an effective manner. I am so grateful to her for helping my family get this done. If it wasn't for her I'd probably still be trying to get things settled with my ex and would be paying ridiculous legal fees. I will forever refer Leena to anyone who needs a family lawyer.

Leena Yousefi looks at me as if I am her family. She has won every single court hearing on my behalf, and every single time she set foot in court my evil husband even had to pay for her legal costs. She got me everything I could imagine and more. She made sure I do not get bullied and pushed in to a corner because even tough I was being attacked by an entire family with a lot of money, I had Leena in front of me, beside me and behind me - always protecting me. I could not image a better lawyer and human being on my side. I am forever grateful for her helping me during these extremely stressful and scary times. Highly recommended.

Leena Yousefi acted as our legal counsel during our recent family law litigation.Although our case was somewhat uncharted territory, Leena did extensive research and was well-prepared to advocate for us in court.This resulted in a judgement in our favour, for which we are very appreciative.During the course of our case, Leena has acted professionally,wisely,and with genuine caring to help us achieve our goals. Her knowledge, confidence and integrity are apparent to all, and we believe we made the best decision having her represent us.

It took Ms Yousefi only one month to help and solve my case in the best interest of my child. My first "high profile" lawyer could not help me and took me to court for almost 3 years and left me just before the Trial...because I had no more money and could not "afford her service". Thank you Ms Yousefi for your knowledge, your work quality and most important thank you for your support!! I would like to thank Victora, Ms Yousefi assistant, for her patience and fast response. Ms Yousefi is now my lawyer for life and I am recommending her to all my family and friends. Thank you ladies for all. Mirela

Leena Yousefi is that rare professional you find who not only does her job extremely well but takes the time to understand you and listen to what you need and want. I'm so sick of meeting a doctor or realtor or financial advisor that does work that isn't great, doesn't answer your questions and seems to only care about taking your money. It's too bad that it's rare to find those gems of professionals who are both competent and someone you really admire as a person. Trust me, Leena is a one of those gems. She's a huge one of those gems!!

Leena is not just another pretty face, her mind is among the sharpest I have ever seen, and her passion, positive mental outlook, and "humane" kindness is evident in how she handles her clients. This professionalism is also displayed by her assistant Victoria, who completes their team... My case is currently in progress and she is saving my 11-month old daughter's life! If it weren't for my present legal representation with Leena, I might be watching my daughter leaving Canada "forever" (where I will never see her again) - to lead a life of hopelessness and poverty, but *instead* she is going to stay in Canada and have a life of unlimited potential. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

It was a lucky turn of events that led to Ms Yousefi being my lawyer after I worked with three different lawyers on my divorce . She is passionate about what she does and knowledgable about the family law . She is open about explaining the process and answering my questions and helping to make decisions . This was very valuable. I believe that she genuinly had my interest and my daughter's interest at heart. I strongly recommend Ms Yousefi as a family lawyer.

The only lawyer that actually cared more about me than my money. She is extremely passionate about what she does and specializes in custody. She is very fair and intelligent. My wife was going to clean me out and this lawyer set her straight. Thank you Leena!

I sought Ronak's services for my father who had lost all faith in the justice system. Ronak and her assistant Victoria were open to our unusual situation of having me handle my father's divorce and parental matters from afar and they were truly exceptional. They always ensured prompt communication, were flexible, and so thoughtful. Ronak provided updates to me during the break from court and Victoria sat with my father during the trial which eased his nerves and gave him moral support. It was a small gesture that meant much more. Ronak has the perfect mix of compassion and tenacity. My father was in awe of her intelligence and fearlessness. She won this extremely rare case and my father is now able to share his daughter equally and sell the family home among other great things. This win helped him regain his dignity, happiness, and faith in the justice system and these are truly priceless. I couldn't be happier having Ronak as our lawyer and would never hesitate to recommend her.

I am so thankful to have Leena as my lawyer. When I first met with her, she was very easy to talk to, listened to all of my concerns, and I truly felt like she sincerely wanted to help me. She is very knowledgeable about the family law process and always knew what strategies to use and when to use them. She has helped me immensely through a very difficult time in my life. I highly recommend Leena and her team.

After seeing two lawyers previously, I was looking for someone who really wanted to represent me. I found her in Ms. Yousefi. She took the time to understand the relationship history between me and my ex-spouse of 10 years. She understood the issues I was most concerned about from the beginning and went to work immediately to solve the issues. Her knowledge of the law and the FMEP were excellent and I was very satisfied with the results we negotiated with my former husband. I highly recommend Ronak Yousefi.

Leena is a outstanding lawyer. She has been working on my case for about 6 months now. Everytime she has set out to do something the results have been better then expected. I come from a very strict European family that does not agree with divorce. Leena has been there for me even when nobody else has. Since my separation my wife has done everything in her power to drain me of every last dime even though she has been making way more money than me. If it wasn't for Leena getting me interm support, I don't know where I would be. I do believe this is a very big step considering I'm the male in the relationship. Leena has shown and proven that she will do everything she can for what is right. I can't say enough about how professional of a lawyer Leena is. Through out all of the rough times I've been having, Leena has not only been there as my lawyer but has also made me feel like a friend. Thank you Leena.

Leena is passionate, hard working and knows the law. She put 110% into my case. I have fought what has felt like a losing battle for 6 years and had various different lawyers during this time. Leena is the only one who actually produced postive results for my children. I highly recommend using Leena to help you. I had major issues with FMEP and an ex who was very resistent in allowing our children the right to have a father in a court system that always seemed to agree with my ex regardless of how unjust it all was. I am now a satisfied father who has equal guardianship rights and EVERY weekend. Not 1 or 2 weekends. EVERY weedend with my kids!!! That speaks volumes. I now have more face to face time with my kids than my ex does.

Lorne Maclean and his team did an excellent job on my recent hearing. They had very time to prepare for my hearing and review my extensive file from previous lawyers. Leena Yousefi represented me in court because we were presented a hearing date from the opposing bullish lawyer on very short notice and Mr. Maclean was on a trial. Leena did a wonderful job. She was strong and stood her ground on my issues. She did such a wonderful job that I was successfully awarded more than I had originally hoped for. Even the judge was impressed with Leena and made a comment on how well she handled herself. I look forward to working with Mr. Maclean's team again for my upcoming trial after seeing how well Leena preformed. It's a great feeling to feel protected and secure by my council.
