North Vancouver Law Firm

About Pax Law Corporation

We are North Vancouver Lawyers and Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants. “Pax” is a Latin word meaning “peace”. Pax-Romana was a period of peace and prosperity in the Roman Empire, starting with the reign of Imperator Caesar Augustus and concluding with the reign of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. During that period of peace and prosperity in the Roman Empire, trade flourished across the Mediterranean. Consequently, Roman wealth increased considerably. Therefore, with this in mind, we chose this name for our firm, hoping our clients would benefit similarly. Just as Roman citizens did during that era, we aspire to ensure that, through our dedicated efforts, our clients will experience the same level of prosperity.

Our North Vancouver Lawyers, good-standing members of the Law Society of British Columbia, adhere to the highest level of professionalism. Similarly, our Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants, good-standing members of the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants, adhere to the highest level of professionalism.
