Our Commitment

Wirring Law uses advocacy to help build thriving communities that embody resilience. Our goal is to provide legal services for those seeking justice in a manner that honours their dignity and identity. From defending clients before Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Board to exposing rights violations before the United Nations Human Rights Council, Wirring Law helps clients assert their dignity and rights across borders and before some of the world’s most powerful institutions.

Why people choose Wirring Law

You may be up against deportation, national security screening, criminal allegations, or intimidation by foreign states. Wirring Law understands how power operates across borders–and how to resist it using the law, strategy, and effective advocacy. This means a holistic approach inside–and outside–the courtroom. Our clients include asylum seekers, everyday citizens, political activists, and human rights defenders. Whether your case involves a refugee hearing, inadmissibility proceedings, criminal prosecution, or advocacy before an international body, you can count on principled, strategic, and bold legal representation.

Immigration and Refugee Law

From refugee hearings to complex inadmissibility cases, judicial reviews or appeals, procedural fairness letters, and removals, we help clients assert their rights and protect their future. Our approach blends rigorous legal strategy with a deep understanding of how borders and state structures shape people’s lives. We bring dignity, clarity, and strategy to every step of the journey.

Criminal Defence

Wirring Law defends individuals whose liberty is threatened by the criminal justice system. We provide principled, strategic, and fearless advocacy while ensuring clients' rights and dignity are maintained at every stage of the process.

National Security Issues

Wirring Law defends individuals targeted by national security measures that restrict their liberty, mobility, or reputation. These cases often involve complex and opaque state actions which may range from passport denials, security screening delays, addition to Canada’s "no-fly list", or the use of secret evidence in administrative or immigration proceedings. We strive to ensure that national security powers are not misused to discriminate or silence political opinions while advocating for public accountability of state actors.

Human Rights and Constitutional Law

Wirring Law represents people whose rights have been violated by state actors or discriminatory laws. Whether the issue involves freedom of conscience, equality, state misconduct, or targeted discrimination, we take a principled approach to holding institutions accountable and advocating for systemic change alongside individual remedies.

International Human Rights

Wirring Law helps clients expose rights violations and seek accountability beyond Canada’s borders by supporting advocacy before international bodies that address abuses committed by governments or security forces around the world. Wirring Law provides clients with a unique pathway to ensure marginalized voices are heard in some of the world's most powerful institutions.

About Prabjot Singh Wirring

After graduating on the Dean’s List from the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University, Prabjot Singh Wirring clerked at the Alberta Court of King’s Bench and articled at one of Edmonton’s top criminal defence firms. He made national headlines early in his career when he challenged the constitutionality of Alberta’s Oath of Allegiance, refusing to swear loyalty to the Crown as a condition of becoming a lawyer.

Since then, Prabjot has established himself as a trusted and fearless advocate for those targeted by state power, including transnational repression, criminal allegations and discriminatory state policies. He has appeared before Canada’s Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference, where he cross-examined the heads of Canada’s intelligence establishment alongside the Prime Minister and various Ministers. He has briefed lawmakers in the UK Parliament and US Congress, and helped secure international attention for abuses by state actors through United Nations mechanisms.‍

Expertise Beyond the Courtroom‍

Prabjot received an MA in South Asian Area Studies (Distinction) from the School of Oriential and African Studies, University of London where he studied ethnic conflict in India. He is an expert on human rights violations and political conflict in the region, with a particular focus on violations against the global Sikh community. ‍

Prabjot has briefed officials in the Parliament of Canada, US Congress, UK Parliament, and the UN on important policy issues tied to human rights, foreign policy, and national security. He has also authored peer-reviewed scholarship on human rights and national security, and regularly provides critical insight to international media on these global issues.

Prabjot continues to provide training and advocacy support to grassroots organizations, ethnic communities, and international coalitions seeking justice and accountability.
