Bio:
Monica has been practicing exclusively family law in the Langley area since completing her law degree at Thompson Rivers University in 2018. Monica has amassed considerable experience litigating, negotiating, and resolving family matters on behalf of her clients. Monica successfully provides legal representation at both the Provincial Court and Supreme Court levels, and achieves positive outcomes for clients in private mediations through skillful, efficient problem-solving and advocacy.
Monica was raised in White Rock, B.C., and developed an interest in family law and alternative dispute resolution in her first year of law school. Having personally experienced the divorce process, she understands it is a stressful time that compels you to turn your mind to your entitlements. Her objective is to effectively use dispute resolution methods best suited to each client’s individual needs.
Prior to law school, Monica taught English to students from across the globe. Monica enjoys spending her free time outdoors locally and across the province, walking the family dog, painting landscapes and flora, and practicing yoga.
