Lina is an Associate with Virgin Law Group. She originally joined Virgin Law Group as an articled student in 2020 after obtaining her J.D. from Thompson Rivers University. During her articles, Lina has had an extensive experience representing clients in family law and insurance defence matters by way of appearing in court, among others. Lina has appeared before the Supreme Court of British Columbia and the Provincial Court of British Columbia. 

 

Lina recognizes that her clients should obtain their desired outcomes as efficiently as possible. She also recognizes that there are cultural and language barriers to accessing justice. With these in mind, Lina makes every effort to be attentive to each client’s needs and expectations and to deliver results.

 

During law school, Lina was active in her roles as executive member for the TRU Indigenous Law Students’ Association and as volunteer with multiple legal aid clinics. Prior to law school, Lina worked for a boutique law firm in Vancouver after receiving a Bachelor of Arts in International Relations from the University of British Columbia.

 

In her spare time, Lina likes to travel, spend time with her family and explore new trails with her dog. Her favourite time of the day is spent going for a stroll around her neighbourhood at dusk.
