Chong Law Office

About Chong Law Office

Chong Law Office is a small law practice in Surrey, British Columbia, run by lawyer Jay Chong. Chong holds a Doctor of Jurisprudence and a Doctor of Economics, is admitted to practice in both British Columbia and Alberta, and worked earlier as an economist, university professor, and management and real estate consultant before moving into legal practice. That mix of backgrounds shows up in the firm's focus on business transactions, corporate work, and real estate deals rather than courtroom litigation.

The day to day work covers residential and commercial real estate, from house and condo purchases to strip malls, hotels, and gas stations, along with the business transactions that come with buying or opening a restaurant, gas station, or retail store. The firm also incorporates companies and drafts shareholder agreements, handles uncontested divorces and separation agreements, prepares wills, probate, and powers of attorney, and provides notarization. Chong Law Office presents its site in English and Korean, and a team member also serves clients in Japanese.
