Samin Mortazavi, LLD, DBA, is the founder and a lawyer of Pax Law Corporation, a North Vancouver-based law firm dedicated to providing trusted and effective legal representation in immigration, administrative, and family law matters.

A dual degree holder in Law and Business Administration from Warsaw Management University, Mortazavi brings a distinctive combination of legal insight and strategic business acumen to his practice.

His approach is characterized by thorough preparation, strategic advocacy, and a deep commitment to his clients’ rights and dignity. He is also an experienced advocate in family law disputes, regularly appearing in both the Provincial and Supreme Courts of British Columbia, and has acted in mediations involving parenting time, asset division, and support obligations.

Mortazavi is fluent in both English and Farsi, allowing him to serve a broad spectrum of clients, including the Iranian-Canadian community. His diverse educational background spans twenty-one years of academic training, including Canadian and European credentials in law, real estate, and finance. He holds degrees and certifications from respected institutions such as Thompson Rivers University, University of Augsburg, Bucerius Law School, the University of British Columbia, Trinity Western University, and several European law schools.
