Rachel Anne Sachs

Rachel advocates for better services, laws, resources and policies for older adults, women, and improved diversity and inclusion initiatives within the legal profession and beyond. She cares deeply about her clients and upholding their rights.

You might catch Rachel speaking to lawyers about networking, leadership, diversity and barriers facing women and internationally- trained lawyers, or speaking with community members through her Seniors, Ask Me Anything sessions, both online and to various seniors groups in person. She looks forward to increased in-person engagement in 2025.

If you’d like Rachel to speak to your group of older adults for a special Seniors, Ask Me Anything session, please reach out. We’d love to hear from you and can speak to a number of legal subjects.

Rachel A. Sachs is a Filipino-German Canadian lawyer striving to improve accessibility to the law for her clients. Rachel’s pronouns are she/her. Rachel runs her own practice, serving older and aging adults, their families and individuals.

Rachel intentionally designed her practice for older adults, in memory of her much loved grandparents and as a way to honour the many, wonderful older adults who have impacted and influenced Rachel’s life.

In her teenage years, Rachel volunteered in the Veteran’s Wing of Sunnybrook & Women’s College Health Sciences Centre. Later, when she returned home from university, Rachel would regularly join her father and grandmother for early morning coffees with other local seniors, listening to their stories and arguing politics. Later, Rachel experienced first-hand the struggles of caring for and living with an older adult with dementia when her grandmother sadly succumbed to the disease.
