Community Involvement

Creating opportunity for newcomers…

Helping to strengthen the social fabric of our society is an important mandate at David Davis Law. We know that in order to do so, we all need to uphold our duty to engage in the community in a way that will have a ripple effect for decades to come.

This cultural mosaic, our nation, is the product of our collective efforts to invest in our future, work collaboratively, and reach our full potential. Robust social programs define the welfare of the country and in the business community, we’ve got to do our part to engage and invest our time to ensure these types of initiatives succeed.

The Knowles Centre is an organization the David Davis Law firm has been closely working with for over a decade. Their mission of helping the youth of our country heal from past struggles and teaching them to create healthier relationships with their day-to-day lives creates the foundational strength we need to prosper as individuals, and as a whole. In continuing efforts to better our society, David Davis Law also engages in volunteer work with a variety of other not-for-profit organizations in the community. In addition to the firm’s volunteer work, we’re deeply entrenched in the business community. The firm is a strong advocate for the fair treatment of all individuals who migrate to, or are in the process of migrating to Canada.

We know that if we want to help shape the narrative of immigration law in Canada, and continue to provide newcomers with opportunities to prosper, then we’ve got to get involved and advocate for people’s rights.
