Our current focus and passion is Canadian immigration law. We provide the following specific services that we have spent our time, energy, and resources to learn inside out. This is a process that we continue to invest in every day.<\/span><\/p>

You will see two sections. The first is our areas of specialization and focus. These are what we do most of and\/or hope to do more of at Heron Law Offices. The second is our full-range of services. These are areas of the law we have experience with and can assist on.<\/p>

For those areas that are outside of our scope of work, we have contacts with the best minds in Canadian immigration and refugee law and can assist (at no charge) by referring you to a suitable legal representative.<\/p>

We can also assist you in case managing and\/or providing a second independent legal opinion as required.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
