BG Laws

About BG Laws

BG Laws is a law practice in Woodbridge, a community within the City of Vaughan, Ontario, run by Harmanjeet Singh Bal, a Barrister and Solicitor whose site describes over 15 years in the legal profession. Bal graduated from law school with an LLB (honours) and later earned a Master's degree in Criminology from Birmingham City University in the United Kingdom, then practised as a solicitor in the UK for close to 12 years at a Birmingham city centre firm, handling criminal law, immigration law, and litigation matters before qualifying to practise in Canada through the National Committee on Accreditation process.

At BG Laws, real estate work covers residential and commercial purchases and sales, including condo and investment transactions, and the firm encourages clients to bring in a lawyer early rather than at the last minute. Criminal defence spans bail hearings, driving offences, assault, fraud, drug charges, and firearms matters, with the practice built around the principle that clients are innocent until proven guilty and the Crown must prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. Immigration work covers express entry, provincial nominee programs, sponsorship applications, visitor and work permits, refugee claims, and appeals. Bal is a member of the Law Society of Ontario, the Canadian Bar Association, the Ontario Bar Association, and the Criminal Lawyers' Association.
