Our Story
We have a personal passion for justice. Candace and Judith were both raised and educated on the east side of Vancouver. We each pursued careers in law before joining forces: Candace as a sole practitioner and Judith in various-sized law firms. We joined forces in 2012 and since then, we’ve assembled a team of like-minded lawyers who dig deep to find creative solutions to complex conflicts.
Why the name “Onyx”?
Our namesake is the Onyx gemstone which is known for its ability to heal sorrow and grief. It was worn to diffuse tension and defend against negativity by fortifying self-confidence and sharpening the senses. By calling ourselves Onyx, what we’re saying is simple – we will support you, build your confidence and defend you.
Focused Practices
By dedicating ourselves to the niche areas of estate and family law, we’ve built a level of competence, detailed knowledge, and experience that you won’t find elsewhere. Our lawyers specialize in finding creative approaches to even your most complex and troubling personal legal situations.
Multiple Languages
We speak Cantonese, Mandarin, Russian and can cater for other languages like French and Spanish. If you need help with legal translations, we have partners we use to support additional language requirements.
Results Oriented
We know our clients are under stress, which is why we commit to finding a fair and just result tailored to each client’s needs. We prepare for trial, but are attuned to opportunities for early resolution.
Free Local Consultations
Choosing your lawyer doesn’t have to be as daunting as it sounds. We offer a free 30-minute consultation where we get to know you and your situation, and see how we can help. That way, you can make sure our law firm is the right fit for you.
