About Harmony Law Group

One of the highest-rated law firms in Markham, going by its Google reviews.

Harmony Law Group is a small law firm in Markham, Ontario, working out of an office on Yonge Street near Steeles Avenue. The firm's principal lawyer, Kwang Hoon Shin, trained first as a scientist, earning a B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in plant pathology from Seoul National University and working as a researcher at Bongbu and Bayer. Shin later moved into law, completing a J.D. at Osgoode Hall Law School and working as an associate lawyer at the intellectual property firm Smart & Biggar/Fetherstonehaugh before founding Harmony Law Group. A second lawyer, Irene Kim, also studied at Osgoode Hall and is licensed as a barrister and solicitor in Ontario.

Day to day, the firm handles residential and commercial real estate transactions, mortgages, wills and powers of attorney, corporate and commercial matters, and notarizing and commissioning. Shin is also a registered trademark agent in Canada, which means the firm can carry a trademark application through to registration rather than only advising on it. Services are offered in English and Korean, and the firm has built a separate practice bridging Canada and South Korea: helping Korean companies establish and commercialize in Canada and helping Canadian technology ventures pursue Korean partners, with particular experience in intellectual property work for artificial intelligence, robotics, and autonomous systems.

In the community

  • Principal lawyer Kwang Hoon Shin holds several roles in the Canada-Korea innovation community outside of client work: advisory counsel to the Association of Korean Canadian Scientists and Engineers (AKCSE), legal advisor at AKCSE's annual Canada-Korea Conference on Science, Technology and Innovation, and head of legal affairs for the Korean Canadian Innovation Centre (KCIC).
  • Shin also serves as advising counsel to Global Youth Leaders and as a mentor with the Korean Next Generation Network.

The neighbourhood

Harmony Law Group's office sits in the Yonge Corridor, the stretch of Yonge Street that runs along Markham's southwestern edge near the Toronto and Vaughan boundary. The City of Markham has been studying this corridor for a secondary plan built around the Yonge North Subway Extension, which is expected to add a station at Steeles Avenue. For a firm that spends much of its time on real estate closings and small business work, it's a fitting location: a fast-growing, transit-oriented part of Markham where new homes and small commercial leases keep changing hands.
