Saron has gone beyond the extra mile to ensure my success.

Saron has skillfully navigated the legal crosswords in our human rights matter and has mobilized the community’s support on behalf of Black workers in Canada. Her passion for advocating for the rights of visible minorities and other social justice causes is refreshing and empowering, as only a few dares take this uncomfortable path. Since retaining her services, Saron has gone beyond the extra mile to ensure my success. I wholeheartedly recommend the People's Lawyer, Saron Gebresellassi.”

She is an advocate who creates platforms for her clients and amplifies their voices

“When I witness Saron working with her clients, I think of the French word for lawyer, “avocat.” Saron does not merely represent people, she is an advocate who creates platforms for her clients and amplifies their voices. Her long-term vision for justice and equity is evident in the kinds of cases she chooses, in her support for vulnerable people in our communities who might not otherwise find representation. Saron clearly takes pride in scoring victories on behalf of her clients and the wider community. I am so proud to know Saron and to work in partnership with her.”
