About Sofia Colley Aquino

Sofia Colley Aquino handles general litigation as an associate at Giffen LLP in Waterloo. Sofia was born in Mexico, later made Canada home, and is fluent in Spanish.

Community work matters to Sofia, who serves as secretary on the board of the Child Witness Centre, an organization that helps young victims and witnesses, along with their families, find their way through a difficult justice system. Free time goes to hot yoga, reading, puzzles and family.

Leadership showed up early. Classmates elected Sofia as their Student Bar Association class representative in every year of law school, and Sofia also took on the presidency of two student groups, the Hispanic Law Association and If, When, How: Lawyering for Reproductive Justice. Those years ended with a dual JD, earned cum laude, from Windsor Law and Detroit Mercy Law. Sofia then articled at Giffen and, once articles wrapped up, came back to join its litigation department as a junior associate.
