A Career Built on Expertise & Community

Diana has been practicing law in the Province of Nova Scotia since 2004. Originally operating a general practice, she now primarily focuses on real estate law — including purchases, sales, and mortgaging of residential properties, and extending to large commercial transactions such as shopping centre acquisitions.

Her practice also covers corporate and commercial law, including incorporations, purchases and sales of businesses, and related matters. Every file is handled with precision and genuine care for the client’s outcome.

Diana is Lebanese, although she was born and raised in Halifax. She graduated from Dalhousie University with a Bachelor of Mathematics in 1999, and completed her Bachelor of Law Degree at Dalhousie in 2002. She worked in the downtown core with a mid-sized firm until 2010, when she opened her own practice and relocated to Bedford.

Diana is known for helping those in need and provides extensive volunteer and Pro Bono services to members of the community. She was the recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Platinum Jubilee Community Hero Award in 2022.

Diana is fluent in Arabic and is also able to provide service in French, allowing her to serve a diverse community across Nova Scotia.
