Associate Counsel- Corporate, Commercial & Real Estate Law

Remote People

About the Opportunity

We're looking for an established lawyer in corporate, commercial, and/or real estate law to join us as Associate Counsel. This isn't a traditional associate role — you'd be bringing your own book of business and running it independently, while we take care of the infrastructure, admin, and overhead that usually eats into a lawyer's time.

If you already work with a support person or assistant, we're happy to talk about bringing them on board too.

Who We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years practicing law in BC

  • An established, independent practice with your own client base

  • Experience in corporate, commercial, or real estate law (or some combination of the three)

  • Someone who wants more time practicing law and less time on the business of running a practice

How the Role Works

You operate your own practice under a management fee model — full autonomy over your files and clients, backed by our firm's resources. That includes:

  • Ongoing mentorship and support from our lawyers

  • A collegial, close-knit office culture

  • Legal support staff, including paralegals experienced in real estate and corporate work

  • Access to the boardroom, kitchen, and other shared building amenities

  • A branded web profile and custom business cards

  • A fully equipped workstation with an adjustable chair

  • Direct phone line, fax, internet, and Wi-Fi

  • Photocopier, scanner, and printer access

  • General office supplies and stationery

  • A new computer with multiple monitors and any additional equipment you need

  • Access to BC Online, LTSA, Unity Accounting, eConvey, and other practice software

  • A marketing budget, scaled to your projected billings

  • Firm infrastructure that lends credibility and support to your practice

  • Remote work support when needed, including secure email and data access

  • Ongoing IT support
