Our Team

To give clients the quality of care they deserve, Rena is adamant that lawyers need to be balanced and maintain their own mental health. Many legal firms today focus on billable hours and profit, which can sacrifice the dedication required to care for a client’s legal needs.

This is why C & Co Family Law exists.

‍

Rena knew family law was where she was meant to be - creating a harmonious home life and positive relationships has always been a cornerstone to her own life. According to her, “We all seek secure attachment and we are nurtured and shaped by the relationships around us.” For Rena, family relationships such as between partners, spouses, and their children are sacred - and how we can positively manage them through a transitional period is crucial.

‍

After earning her law degree and being called to the B.C. Bar in 2015, Rena discovered that traditional courtroom advocacy wasn’t enough - she had witnessed too much vitriol and conflict in both general and complex family law cases. Rena then vowed to find a different way to practice family law, and spent over 100 training hours upgrading her skill-set to become a mediator and certified collaborative family lawyer. Rena continues to be inspired today by each individual she works with and is incredibly humbled to be part of their healing journey.

Enjoying the quiet of each morning to self-reflect and allow the freedom of creativity to start her day keeps Rena calm and grounded, as does counselling, breathwork and self-awareness.
