About Athena Law

Athena Law is a solo law practice in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, founded by Sonali Sharma. The firm limits its work to three areas: collaborative family law, wills and estates and personal planning, and estate administration. It was built around an unbundled service model, offering flat fees, income scaled hourly rates, and lawyer as needed help so clients can pay for only the part of a matter they actually need.

Sharma was called to the bar in British Columbia in 2014 after articling in Northern BC with a full service firm and the Ministry of Justice, and later practised family law with a mid sized firm in Richmond before opening Athena Law. Sharma completed collaborative training through the BC Collaborative Roster Society in 2016 and mediation and family violence training through the Continuing Legal Education Society of BC in 2022, and provides services in English, Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu. In 2023, Sharma received the Canadian Bar Association BC Branch's Innovation Award, given for rethinking the model of legal services and challenging institutional barriers to access.
