Preet Dhaliwal

I am a family lawyer specializing in guardianship and parenting time, child support, spousal support, separation, and property division. Before joining England Lam Family Law, I practiced at a full-service law firm where I focused on business, real estate, and wills and estate law. This prior experience has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of how family law intersects with other legal areas, such as business and estate planning, enabling me to better assist my clients in navigating complex family law matters. I understand that family disputes can be emotionally challenging for clients and their loved ones. Therefore, my approach is to provide practical and pragmatic solutions tailored to each client's unique circumstances and goals.

My educational background includes a B.B.A. from the University of the Fraser Valley, a B.Ed. from the University of British Columbia, and a J.D. from the University of Victoria. I was called to the British Columbia bar in 2021 and have successfully represented clients in both Provincial Court and Supreme Court proceedings. Outside of my legal practice, I am actively involved in community service. I serve as a secretary for the Abbotsford Youth Commission, an organization that offers services and programs for youth in Abbotsford, BC. Additionally, I am a member of the South Asian Legal Clinic, an organization that provides pro bono legal services to enhance access to justice within the South Asian community.

I am fluent in Punjabi and Hindi, allowing me to effectively communicate with clients in both languages and better serve the diverse needs of my clientele. In my personal time, I prioritize spending quality time with my family and friends. I also enjoy traveling to new destinations, nurturing plants, and experimenting with new cooking recipes.
