She obtained her LL.B. from the University of British Columbia in 1997, was called to the Bar in British Columbia in 1998 and has completed extensive mediation training that includes the Mediation Practicum (Provincial Court of British Columbia).

In that regard, Jeevyn is experienced in developing corporate immigration strategies to assist employers in their engagement of foreign workers, be it by way of intra-company transfer or international treaty, such as NAFTA or GATS, or as part of a more permanent solution through Provincial Nominee Programs. Jeevyn has represented clients' interests in the fields of construction, biotech, hightech, pharmaceutical, engineering and mining services. As part of her practice, Jeevyn provides strategic advice to position our clients to minimize the risk of litigation and disruption to their operations in compliance with both Federal and Provincial legislation. Jeevyn has written and presented seminars on a variety of immigration and employment related topics.

Jeevyn is active in the legal community and is president of the South Asian Bar Association of British Columbia. Her community involvement extends to singing at charitable and sporting events and has, over the years, been a frequent guest anthem singer for the Vancouver Canucks NHL hockey team.
