Business law in British Columbia: what to know

How to choose a business lawyer in Vancouver

  1. Confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with the Law Society of British Columbia.
  2. Ask how much of their practice is business, and how recent their experience is with cases like yours.
  3. Compare the Google rating together with the number of reviews, not the rating alone.
  4. Read recent reviews for comments on communication and responsiveness.
  5. Ask for the fee structure in writing before you sign, including what is billed separately.
  6. Meet with more than one firm if the matter is large, and trust the one that explains your options clearly.

  4. You sign and the lawyer files any required registrations.

Costs and fees
