Uphar K. Dhaliwal practices Family Law, Immigration Law (both in Canada and the United States), Wills & Estates and is a licensed mediator at DD Law Group. She is also licensed to practice law in the Yukon.

Uphar’s diverse legal career began at the prosecuting attorney’s office in Bellingham, Washington where she appeared daily in court as a Rule 9 intern to deal with criminal law and traffic matters. Uphar then went on to join a boutique law firm in downtown Seattle where her practice focused on supporting international business clients with their immigration and corporate needs.

She transitioned from this role to act as in-house legal counsel where she ensured corporate and state compliance with regulatory laws and managed the law firms retained by her company in all 50 states.

After spending years honing her legal acumen abroad, Uphar felt the call of home which led to a return to her roots in the Fraser Valley so that she could serve the community in which she was born and raised. Uphar knew that the best way to give life to her dynamic approach to the law was through the unfettered freedom of her own law firm which led to the creation of Dhanu Dhaliwal Law Group.

Uphar Dhaliwal is always an active member of any community she is a part of and takes great pride in being a founding member of the Washington branch of the South Asian Bar Association. Uphar has presented on various legal topics on numerous occasions to lawyers, law students and other legal industry related professionals.
