Biography
After 15 years’ practicing family law in both Vancouver and Fraser Valley law firms, Kendelle decided to start her own Surrey/White Rock-based firm so that she could provide a more personalized and supportive service to those navigating divorce, adoptions, spousal and child support, and custody and guardianship.
As a family lawyer and neutral family mediator, Kendelle focuses her practice in the following core service areas:
She also has considerable experience in both division of family property (family assets) and business property (both privately held and corporations). In particular, Kendelle has experience assisting high net worth clients and business owners deal with their complex asset structures upon marriage breakdown.
In 2016, Kendelle traveled to Toronto to deepen her understanding and skill in family law negotiation and obtained a Certificate in Negotiation from Osgoode Hall Law School (York University). This course allowed Kendelle to delve into the theory and practical nuances of family law negotiation, providing her clients with a tactical advantage at the negotiation table.
Further, she has completed over 200 hours of family mediation training (well beyond the standard 80 hours required by the Law Society of BC), so that she can offer superior services whether she is acting as a neutral third-party mediator or as an advocate for her clients at a mediation.
