About Starling Law
At Starling Law, we believe exceptional legal counsel should not be exclusive to large firms. We bring together diverse cultural perspectives, international experience and a commitment to delivering thoughtful, commercially focused advice on every matter.
Our practice is grounded in Ontario law, but our capabilities extend across borders. We support clients with domestic and cross-border transactions, business acquisitions and commercial disputes. Through our global network of advisors, local counsel and business partners, we coordinate the expertise needed to help clients navigate different jurisdictions and pursue opportunities internationally.
Our global profiles influence how we practise law. We understand that no two clients share the same background, challenges or ambitions. From entrepreneurs and family-owned businesses to established companies and industry leaders, we take the time to understand your circumstances and tailor our advice to what you want to achieve.
We also believe that personal service means meeting you where you are. Whether through a virtual conversation or an in-person meeting, we make time for direct, meaningful contact. We can travel across Ontario to meet you at your business or another convenient location, building our relationship around how you work.
We see people, not just files. Our relationships are built on trust, accessibility and a genuine investment in our clients’ success, wherever their business takes them.

Principal Lawyer
Ahmed advises shareholders, founders and boards on the matters that shape a business: governance and disputes, transactions and capital raising, and the reorganizations that carry a company and a family forward.
He does his best work in special situations, where the answer is not obvious and a matter needs to be solved, not simply advised on. His experience runs from heavy industry to high-growth technology, so he adapts quickly to new territory and sees the commercial reality behind the legal question from the perspective of the business.
Having lived and worked across North America, Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, and fluent in English and Arabic, he understands how business is done across cultures, which shapes how he structures and negotiates deals.
Ahmed holds a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Southampton and a Master of Laws from the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University.
