We are litigation lawyers in Vancouver focused on the resolution of complex business disputes.
Our work is often innovative and sometimes on the leading edge of the law.
Our cases are rarely routine, and they are never repetitive.
We are looking for an associate who can contribute to our work by:
- Providing thorough and insightful legal analysis, on a wide range of topics, expressed in clear writing.

- Being part of the team in the office: collaborate with other lawyers and treat everyone with respect, including our clients, opposing parties, and each other.
- Helping launch a series of novel class actions that will contribute social value to the world.
This is a full-time position but we would consider part-time for the right applicant – we recognize that talented women in particular may be excluded from legal careers because of the challenge of balancing family and work in a traditional law firm model.
We are genuine and decent people. We treat everyone with respect, including our clients, opposing parties, and each other.
