The Dufferin County Law Association (DCLA) is a voluntary association of lawyers, practising law in the County of Dufferin. An Ontario non-profit corporation, the DCLA has about 55 members with offices mainly in Orangeville and Shelburne as well as a few in the Region of Peel. With funding from membership fees and various grants, the DCLA operates and maintains the Law Association and Library, located in the Orangeville Courthouse.

Membership in the DCLA is limited to lawyers who are members-in-good-standing of the Law Society of Ontario, who practise law or live in the County of Dufferin, and who pay their annual membership fee. We invite interested lawyers to join the DCLA and benefit from the services we provide.

The lawyers of Dufferin County are proud to provide professional and competent services to all members of the Public. The DCLA provides assistance in finding a lawyer in Dufferin County by listing our members, searchable by name and area of practice. Please note that our library is not open to the Public.
