Immigration Paths

  • ”Worth Every Penny” - Erika R.

    My partner and I could not have been happier with the service we received at Sisu Legal. When we had first looked into the process of having my partner immigrate to Canada, it was completely overwhelming. The legal services at Sisu Legal are worth every penny for the peace of mind you will receive throughout the entire process. Emilia organizes everything so well and creates lists where we can keep track of our progress. She was always an email or a call away any time we had questions. Emilia is very thorough and double, even triple checks all the documentation to make sure there are no errors before submitting. I would definitely recommend Sisu Legal to anyone who is looking for support in their immigration process.

  • “Easy and Practical” - Tere G.

    It was very easy and practical to work with the Sisu Legal team. They are excellent and professional!

  • ”Proactive and Helpful” - Paul K.

    Emilia was recommended to me by word of mouth for her quality of work and high professional standard. She was proactive and helpful. I am very glad I went to her.

Why “Sisu”?

"Sisu" is a Finnish noun used to describe resilience, determination and courage, especially in the face of adversity.

Sisu is about taking a leap of faith and trusting that when the moment comes, we are able to keep up the practice, stand behind the vision and push through the obstacles. We believe many of our clients live with sisu and we join them as we explore what it means to practice law and life with resilience.
