About Du Law Office

Du Law Office is a solo practice in Scarborough run by Heng (Pandora) Du, a barrister, solicitor, and notary public with an LL.B. Du grew up in Ontario and studied at the University of Western Ontario's Faculty of Law and its Ivey School of Business before articling in Toronto with a focus on litigation. After being called to the Ontario Bar, Du worked for several years at a Toronto litigation practice founded by lawyer Edward Hung, working alongside specialized litigation lawyers.

The firm handles family law matters including divorce, property division, child custody, and Children's Aid Society cases, along with criminal litigation such as bail hearings and CBSA related matters, and civil and Small Claims Court disputes. Du is fluent in Mandarin and English and is one of a small number of Mandarin speaking litigation lawyers in Toronto. The office also works as a notary public and Ontario Commissioner of Oaths, including the three step authentication process needed to use Canadian documents in China, done in coordination with the Chinese Consulate General in Toronto.

The neighbourhood

The office is in a multi tenant building at 55 Town Centre Court, just south of the Scarborough Town Centre mall, one of Scarborough's main commercial hubs. The area has drawn a wave of redevelopment proposals in recent years, including new high rise residential towers planned for nearby sites and for the mall property itself, as the district shifts from low rise office buildings toward denser mixed use development.
