Ronalee Carey Law – Trusted Immigration Advice
Ronalee Carey
I’ve been practicing law in Ontario since 1998 and started focusing exclusively on immigration law in 2008. Immigration law has become my passion. I truly enjoy my work because I get to help people land a dream job in Canada, reunite with family members, or even escape a potentially dangerous situation back home. It’s important work, and I take pride in doing it well.
I’m an active volunteer in my community and have taken on a variety of leadership roles for non-profit organizations.

Barbara Ann Doucet-Kehoe – Paralegal
I jointed the Ronalee Carey Law team at the end of 2021. I am a Paralegal Diploma graduate from Herzing College. I perform administrative and billing tasks and assist Ronalee by organizing documents and populating forms.
Pre-pandemic, I have worked in the child-care and foodservice industries, giving me over a decade of customer service experience. I have had the opportunity to work with individuals from around the world and hear of various diverse experiences. Outside of work, I have previously enjoyed fundraising for various local LGBTQ+ organizations and baking for animal rescue bake sales.

Milo – Office Dog
I have been the Office Dog since May 2020. I am a rescue from the Ottawa Humane Society. My duties include posing for photos for @ronaleecarey’s Twitter page, greeting visitors to the office, and calming anxious refugee claimants. I will admit to spending a lot of time sleeping on the job.
Indy - Assistant Office Dog
I am a rescue from Home Again Bancroft; I was found wandering the streets of a small community and given refuge. I have hearing, vision, and mobility issues, so I play a supporting role to the Office Dog. I remind the humans at the firm the importance of patience, compassion and resiliance.
