About Onize Ajayi
Onize brings an international legal perspective and a strong commitment to social justice to her work as a Paralegal.
Onize Ajayi brings an international legal perspective, a strong commitment to social justice and a deep interest in the connection between law and human experience to her role as a Paralegal at DAL | Aequitas Law.
Originally from Nigeria, Onize earned her law degree and practised law before coming to Canada. Her experience included supporting individuals navigating family law and conflict, as well as broader social justice advocacy.
She is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Peace and Justice, where her studies include Indigenous rights in Canada, the impacts of colonialism, self-determination, treaty rights and systemic barriers within the justice system. This learning has strengthened her commitment to culturally respectful and trauma-informed approaches to legal service.
At DAL, Onize brings together her previous legal experience, ongoing academic studies and commitment to advocacy. She understands that clients may be navigating legal matters alongside stress, conflict and significant life changes, and believes legal service should be delivered with compassion, dignity and respect.
As she continues developing her knowledge of New Brunswick and Canadian law, Onize remains guided by the values that first drew her to the legal profession: using knowledge with purpose, listening to different experiences and contributing to a more compassionate and equitable approach to justice.
