Filkow Law welcomes lawyer Hapin Lyu to our team.
Hapin was called to the bar in January 2024 and joins our team following her time practicing criminal defence at Platform Litigation. She is a zealous advocate who provides compassionate and tailored support to individuals and families navigating a wide spectrum of legal challenges. She has experience dealing with various criminal charges, including allegations of assault, sexual assault, and murder, as well as property offences, customs matters, and driving offences.
Prior to her call, Hapin earned degrees from renowned educational institutions in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Born and raised in China, Hapin is the first in her family to work and live outside the country. Due to this background, she has unique perspectives on the challenges and barriers facing residents new to Canada.
Hapin is pleased to provide legal services in native Chinese. She is aware of the limited legal resources available for Chinese and Mandarin-speaking clients in the Province of British Columbia. She is also an active member of the Federation of Asian Canadian Lawyers Society, and is committed to contributing to the diverse representation of the BC Bar.
Welcome, Hapin!
