About New Wave Lawyers

New Wave Lawyers is a small Toronto firm built around a technology-enabled, appointment-based practice rather than a traditional storefront office. It handles employment law for both employers and employees, business law (incorporation, contracts, and shareholder agreements), privacy law (privacy policies, Privacy Impact Assessments, and PIPEDA and GDPR compliance), and immigration and visa work, including Federal Court judicial reviews of refused applications. The firm's stated approach is to keep legal support practical and responsive rather than tied to a single fixed office model.

The firm is led by Amie Rose Lisking Onda, who is licensed in both Ontario and the Philippines and holds CIPP/C, CIPP/E, and CIPM privacy credentials, with prior experience as a court attorney at the Philippine Court of Appeals. Christian Peliña, of counsel, is licensed in the Philippines and has appeared before all court levels there in property, family, business, estate, and criminal matters. Together they coordinate cross-border work for Canadian clients with property, family, or business matters in the Philippines and India, while keeping a single point of contact in Toronto.
