Puneet Khaira is a trial lawyer with 16+ years of litigation experience at BC Provincial Court, Supreme Court of BC and Federal Court of Canada.
With an engineering degree in hand, Ms. Khaira decided to take a plunge in the legal world by attending law school at University of Toronto. She articled at a downtown Toronto law firm, before embarking her legal career on the west coast with a reputed mid-sized firm where she practiced for 9 years. The calling to open her own firm came in 2017 when she established Citylaw Group.
Ms. Khaira is committed to providing each client with legal representation that is accurate, reliable, and refreshingly client-focused. She takes the time to understand what matters most to the people she represents, explains their options in plain language, and works toward practical results they can feel confident about. She has experience dealing with all array of cases ranging from complex personal injury cases, contentious family law files, estate litigation and general litigation matters. The best results are achieved by crafty, strategical and competent legal representation that can take form of a simple negotiation, mediation, undergoing a collaborative process, and/or litigation.
