Rachel A. Sachs
Lawyer | ON Call to the Bar: 2017
Lawyer & Founder Rachel Sachs (she, her) is a Filipino-German Canadian lawyer striving to improve accessibility to the law for her clients. Rachel runs her own practice, serving seniors, their families and individuals. Rachel intentionally set out to work with older adults following her experiences caring for a much loved grandparent. She is a mother to a young child, a lover of animals and coffee, and an advocate for better services and policies for seniors, women and improved inclusion and diversity initiatives within the legal profession and beyond.
In her tens and twenties, Rachel volunteered with the Sunnybrook & Women's College Health Science Centre Veterans wing and when home from school, would regularly join her father and grandmother for morning coffees with other local seniors, listening to their stories and arguing politics. Later, Rachel experienced firsthand life living with and caring for an adult with dementia.
Rachel was educated in Canada and abroad. She holds a Masters degree from the University of Edinburgh School of Business. Before realizing her passion working with aging adults and the law, Rachel worked with charities and not-for-profits, financial institutions, and small businesses in areas ranging from energy, environmentalism to anti-money laundering.
Rachel provides free public legal education through her Seniors, Ask Me Anything virtual webinar series, and various volunteer organizations. She hopes to give in-person sessions once we are past the COVID-19 pandemic.
Rachel is the 2020-2021 Chair of the Ontario Bar Association's Women Lawyers Forum and a founding member of the the Filipino Canadian Lawyers Network. She volunteers regularly with Pro Bono Ontario, the Ontario and Canadian Bar Associations and Women in Leadership Toronto. Rachel also mentors with EmpowHer-Peel, the Women Lawyers Association of Ontario and Global Lawyers of Canada.
