About Joy Z. Wei
J.D., LL.M., LL.B.
I moved to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada in 2010 with my husband and first child.
Before moving to Ottawa, I worked as a legal counsel with Deutsche Bank China for over three years. After settling in my new home and country, I became a licensed paralegal with the Law Society of Ontario in 2013. I worked as a paralegal for three years, specializing in intellectual property and immigration law.
I moved to Canada to provide a better life for my children and to show them that anything is possible. So, I returned to full-time studies at the University of Ottawa, Faculty of Law and pursue a Juris Doctor degree.
I graduated from the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law in 2019. During the pandemic, I passed the Ontario Bar Exam and completed articling. I opened my own legal practice in early 2021.
If you put your mind to it – you can achieve it!
