About

My name is Ameera Shums

My journey to becoming a Notary Public is deeply rooted in the community I serve. Growing up in Surrey and attending high school here, I developed a strong connection to this vibrant, growing city. That local foundation stayed with me as I pursued my Bachelor of Business Administration at SFU, followed by my Master of Applied Legal Studies, also at SFU.

​

My professional path was built on diverse experience across the legal and financial sectors. My experienceworking within the City of Surrey and for the Provincial Government (Crown Counsel) gave me a front-row seat to the importance of due diligence and the administrative precision required by our legal system. My finance background in the banking industry provided me with an insider’s understanding of mortgage lending and the financial pressures clients face during major transactions. Lastly, my exposure working alongside seasoned Notaries and Lawyers allowed me to identify a common "gap" between complex legal jargon and the client's need for clarity.
 

I saw firsthand that legal services can often feel cold or confusing. I founded my practice with the specific goal of closing that gap. I believe my clients deserve more than just a signature, they deserve a partner who can translate "legalese" into plain language and provide a smooth, stress-free experience. Whether you are navigating your first home purchase or planning your family’s estate, I bring the local knowledge and professional rigor necessary to protect your interests.
 

I believe in a healthy, active lifestyle to stay sharp for my clients. When I’m not in the office, you’ll likely find me working out at a local gym or planning my next travel adventure. Much like in my practice, I love exploring new perspectives and staying disciplined in everything I do.

​

I look forward to meeting you and helping you move forward with your next big milestone.
