Ms. Bakshi is a family law lawyer, certified mediator, and accredited collaborative family lawyer. Her work is driven by her passion for helping people through some of the most challenging moments of their lives.

Ms. Bakshi graduated from the University of Victoria with a Bachelor of Science and continued her education in England, where she obtained both her Bachelor of Laws and Master of Laws. Upon returning to the Lower Mainland, she was called to the bar in 2018. She is a member of the Canadian Bar Association and participates in the Fraser Valley Family Law, Women Lawyers Forum, and Young Lawyers sections.

Ms. Bakshi is deeply committed to empowering her clients throughout the post-separation process and guiding them through the stress and uncertainty that can accompany family law matters. Whether advocating in court or resolving disputes outside of court, she passionately defends her clients’ interests. Protecting children during difficult separations is central to her practice.

Outside of practicing law, Ms. Bakshi loves travelling with her husband, son, and daughter, exploring new foods, experimenting in the kitchen, dancing whenever there’s music, and finding joy in the everyday chaos of family life.

Ms. Bakshi is fluent in Punjabi.

I am a lawyer, mediator and arbitrator, who used the services of Pamela Bakshi for a mediation in a family law proceeding. She was organized and thorough. I appreciated her evaluative approach. What stuck out to me most was her ability to connect with each of the parties. She provided insightful and intelligent options for resolution. She put my client at ease. This mediation was on the eve of Trial so tensions were heightened. Pamela’s approach was helpful and resulted in the matter settling. Pamela was excellent and I will use her again for a Mediation.

I cannot say enough about the skill, patience, and genuine compassion that Pamela Bakshi brought to our mediation. Our case was a contested divorce involving complex financial issues including property division, debt allocation, spousal support, and pension matters. Both parties had deeply entrenched positions and the matter was heading toward a multi-day conventional trial in BC Supreme Court.

Pamela created an environment where resolution felt possible even when it seemed out of reach. She listened carefully to both sides, helped each party understand the other’s perspective without taking sides, and guided us through difficult conversations with remarkable patience and professionalism. Her approach was thoughtful and balanced — she never pushed us toward any particular outcome but helped us find our own path to resolution.

Because of Pamela’s genuine efforts and skill as a mediator we were able to settle all outstanding matters and avoid a lengthy and costly trial. For me personally as a self-represented litigant going through an extremely difficult period this resolution brought enormous relief and the opportunity to finally move forward.

If you are going through a difficult family law matter I would wholeheartedly recommend Pamela Bakshi. She is an exceptional mediator who brings real humanity to an incredibly stressful process. I am genuinely grateful for her help.

We had a very unique and challenging guardianship matter that felt overwhelming at first. From the moment we contacted Pamela Bakshi, she was professional, compassionate, and completely on top of every detail. She demonstrated an impressive knowledge of the law, explained every step of the process clearly, and always made us feel supported and informed.

What stood out most was her efficiency—there was no unnecessary delay, no confusion, and no wasted time. Pamela moved quickly, prepared thoroughly, and presented our case in court with confidence and skill. Thanks to her dedication and expertise, our issue was resolved faster than we ever thought possible, and the outcome was exactly what we had hoped for.

We are truly grateful for Pamela Bakshi's hard work and commitment to helping us through such a difficult situation. If you are looking for a lawyer who is both highly competent and genuinely cares about her clients, we cannot recommend her enough.

Pamela Bakshi provided excellent legal support throughout my divorce process. She was consistently professional, clear in her communication, and efficient in handling all aspects of the case. Her calm and respectful approach helped make a difficult process more manageable. I appreciated her responsiveness and attention to detail, and I would confidently recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and reliable family lawyer.
