Virtual appointmentsAbout J. Lee Family Law
JLEE Family Law is a solo family law practice with an office in downtown Toronto, founded by lawyer and mediator Justin J. Lee. Lee holds a J.D. from the University of Toronto and a B.Comm from Saint Mary's University, and was a Junior Fellow at Massey College. Early work at Downtown Legal Services covered separation, parenting disputes, and financial matters, and training followed at a family law firm in downtown Toronto before Lee opened an independent practice focused entirely on family law.
The firm handles the full span of family law work: parenting and custody disputes, child and spousal support, division of property, and domestic contracts such as marriage contracts, cohabitation agreements, and separation agreements, along with contested and uncontested divorce. Cases can move through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation, and clients who don't need full representation can hire the firm for unbundled services such as coaching or document review alone. Lee belongs to the Law Society of Ontario, the Advocates Society, the Canadian Bar Association, the Ontario Bar Association, the Federation of Asian Canadian Lawyers, and the Korean Canadian Lawyers Association, and practises in English and Korean. The firm doesn't accept legal aid and limits new client intake to keep caseloads manageable.

Frequently asked questions
- Does JLEE Family Law handle mediation as well as litigation?

- Can I hire JLEE Family Law for just part of my case?
- Yes, the firm offers unbundled services. Clients can choose specific pieces of help, such as legal advice, coaching, document drafting and review, or court representation, rather than paying for full representation.
- Does JLEE Family Law accept legal aid?
- No, the firm does not accept legal aid certificates.
- What languages does JLEE Family Law serve clients in?
- Justin J. Lee practises in English and Korean.
- Where is JLEE Family Law located?
- The office is on the fifth floor at 33 Bloor St E in downtown Toronto, near the Bloor-Yonge subway station.
- Can I get a divorce in Ontario if my spouse doesn't agree to it?
- Yes. Canada allows no-fault divorce, so a divorce can proceed once spouses have been separated for at least a year and the other spouse has been properly served with the application, even without their agreement. This is general information, not legal advice.
