Ashley Iyathurai, family lawyer, standing with an aggressive pose

Ashley Iyathurai

Associate Lawyer

After completing law school at the University of Ottawa, I was admitted to the Ontario Bar in 2016. Since then, I have been focused on family law and have gained significant experience representing clients and assisting them with their most personal issues. I take great pride in my legal drafting. I am precise, detailed, and thorough in preparing your materials.


I have worked on a variety of matters ranging from complex property and support issues to protracted disputes about parenting time and decision making. I have negotiated and drafted domestic contracts, resolved matters for clients through settlement and negotiations, and represented clients at the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice.


I understand that litigation can be emotionally and financially draining. Many family cases are decided before my clients ever set foot in a courtroom. Where possible, I endeavour to effectively resolve matters outside of court to find a workable solution for my clients. Navigating a separation can be daunting. I aim to provide my clients with a patient and empathetic ear. I focus my clients’ energies and attention on the main issues at play. I work closely with my clients to map out a plan of action after fully weighing the pros and cons of each.


My Hourly bill rate is $395
