Chinese Family Lawyer in Markham

Family Law Services We Provide in Markham

Family law cases in the Markham Chinese-Canadian community frequently involve cross-border assets, authentication of marriages registered in China, and property division spanning two legal systems. Miao He holds dual licences in Ontario and China — making her one of the very few lawyers who can handle these matters as a single point of contact.

Divorce Litigation

Ontario divorce requires either one year of separation or grounds such as adultery or physical/mental cruelty. Miao He assists clients through both uncontested and contested divorce, handling Equalization of Net Family Property, Spousal Support, and all child-related matters.

Child Custody & Access

Ontario courts decide custody based on the Best Interests of the Child. Miao He represents clients seeking primary decision-making responsibility, joint arrangements, and urgent situations — including preventing a child from being removed from Ontario.

Marriage Contract (Prenuptial Agreement)

Marriage contracts are increasingly common in Markham's Chinese-Canadian community, particularly to protect property held in China, family business interests, and assets gifted by parents. Miao He drafts in both Chinese and English, ensuring the agreement will withstand Ontario court scrutiny.

Cross-Border Asset Division

Markham families often hold Chinese real estate, bank deposits, and shareholdings that become contested in divorce. Miao He's dual-licence advantage allows her to assist directly with asset disclosure, investigation of overseas holdings, and enforcement — without referring you to a separate firm.
