Michael believes in a client-centered approach to practicing law and will work closely with you to determine your immigration needs and develop strategies to help you achieve your goals.

Experience

Michael was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba but turned West to pursue his dream job with Ackah Law. During his time in law school, Michael developed a passion for assisting refugee claimants. He previously worked for Legal Aid Manitoba where he assisted asylum-seekers. As a result of his passion, Michael co-founded a law school volunteer program allowing law students to assist refugee claimants.

Michael continues to maintain strong relationships with the newcomer community in the prairie provinces, including Alberta. These relationships are crucial to his success, as it allows Michael to tailor his legal services to his client’s needs.

In 2010 Softtek was a new foreign company in the Canadian Market and although we were already very experienced with immigration matters in other countries, Canada was an exciting challenge that we needed to take with the best immigration support and our search led to Ms. Evelyn Ackah, whom at that time decided to start her own law firm. Working with Ms. Evelyn Ackah and her team has been a very pleasant experience, they understand our business and support our needs very professionally. Their support has been critical for our operation in Canada, we trust their knowledge, discipline and commitment. We hope to continue working with them for many years.
