Whether you enjoy exclusively focusing on Family Law or you would like the opportunity to broaden your horizons in other areas of Civil Litigation (that's the +) while maintaining at least 50% Family, we have an opportunity for you!
This Opportunity:
We're looking for a lawyer who is capable of running Family files from start to finish, and wants to lean into complex legal issues. We think to be able to achieve this you need to have been practicing Family Law for at least 3 years and have some trial experience. However, we also know that years of practice is not equivalent to experience and what we need is some experience. That's really about it.
You will be working alongside a team of legal assistants who are good at what they do, enjoy what they do and are genuinely good people. The Family team ranges in experience from a couple of years to a couple of decades and have dubbed themselves the "Dream Team". We also have a team of about 10 litigators who are always happy to help strategize or commiserate, and about 10 solicitors who love to hear stories and offer guidance when our worlds collide.
There truly isn't a box that you need to fit into. We understand "success" can mean different things to different people and it may change depending on what stage of life you are in. We want you to achieve success with us, whatever that means for you.
Our Firm:
We are well-established in the the Fraser Valley, having operated from the same location in Abbotsford since 1971 and recently expanded to a second office in Langley. As a full-service firm, for over 50 years we have been helping families, homeowners, businesses and Fraser Valley residents with all their legal needs.
As a firm we value flexibility. Our partners have an internal brand promise to come at every opportunity with an open mind and willingness to consider rather than a "no". We don't do "status quo" and are always on the lookout for ways to increase efficiency while also strengthening our core values.
This role can be performed from either office and remotely, while we expect the successful candidate will want to build relationships with their team and clients which is often done best in-person. We trust our associates to ensure all of their professional obligations are met.

Diversity and Inclusion:
We value our diverse and inclusive workplace and it is important to us that you do too. We strive for a culture of belonging, where we respect (and sometimes even celebrate!) our differences while remaining one united team that is reflective of the diverse communities that we serve.
Compensation:
We offer flexible options that can take you where you want to go financially. Our goal is to ensure our associates have the tools needed to exceed market rates, meaning files, staff support and other resources. How you are able to make use of these tools and systematize your practice, depends on you.
We also offer extended health and dental benefits package, as well as parental leave, etc.
