Our services

Kes Posgate Law offers services in the full breadth of Canadian immigration, refugee and citizenship law, with particular expertise in refugee protection, immigration enforcement, and inadmissibility. We also specialize in appeals and complex litigation.

Kes Posgate Law accepts legal aid certificates for some matters. We prioritize accepting legal aid for appeals and applications for leave and judicial review. We also aim to provide affordable rates for those who do not qualify for legal aid, recognizing there is a troubling gap between those who qualify for legal aid and those who can afford a lawyer.
