Miao He handled a very complex cross-border asset case for me. My ex-spouse held multiple properties and company shares in China. She successfully traced and recovered the assets. Professional, patient, and fully bilingual.
When CAS got involved, I had no idea what to do. Miao He stepped in immediately and helped keep my child at home. She knows Ontario family law inside out and is a very effective advocate in court.
先后就婚姻和房产的事情和 Mia 合作,唯一的遗憾是没有早点遇到!Mia 和团队非常专业,最重要的是很高效。在此之前我以为联系不上律师、沟通缓慢是正常的,和 Mia 共事我才知道原来律师可以回应这么快,可以灵活,可以积极帮客人寻找各种解决方案。近期接触的律师中,Mia 团队费用上和其他相差不大,但效率真是高了三倍不止!以后有需要我一定还会选择她们。
