Who we are
The Gastown Law Collective is a group of independent lawyers and small law firms that share an address. We are not a law firm. Some members of the Collective work in the same office, here on Water Street, and others work elsewhere in Gastown or even remotely. The Collective is a way for us all to come together to give you, the client, more access to more legal professionals, so you have a better chance at finding the right lawyer to help with your unique legal issues.
Syer Law provides legal services to clients in a range of civil litigation and administrative law matters. They can help you with employment law, housing law (landlord/tenant and strata), human rights issues, mediation, and other legal issues. They also offer legal coaching.
Gastown Mediation provides mediation and facilitation services to people having any kind of civil dispute. They provide mediation services whether or not there is a court case going on, and whether or not the parties have a lawyer. They want to help you resolve your conflicts on your own terms.
Our services include assisting clients on a variety of family law issues, such as parenting arrangements, child support and spousal support, and division of family property and family debt. We also recognize the importance of negotiating fair settlements, determining matters with efficiency, and choosing an amicable approach, including family dispute resolution processes, where advisable.
At Bright Law, we understand the intricacies of landlord-tenant relationships and have extensive experience helping landlords and tenants solve their disputes. We also understand that some disputes cannot be resolved, which is why we are equipped with the expertise to advance claims before the Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB), to assist in judicially reviewing RTB decisions, and to help with any subsequent collections proceedings.
​
Our firm routinely appears before the BC Residential Tenancy Branch, the Provincial Court and the Supreme Court of British Columbia for tenancy disputes.
Wittman Litigation is a downtown Vancouver boutique litigation firm specializing in personal injury claims, insurance denial claims, commercial disputes, wills and estates, and disability law. We focus on the client relationship throughout every stage of the litigation so that you feel as connected to and in control of the process as you wish to be. Our flexible approach allows us to tailor our strategy to your personal needs and circumstances, whether that means attempting to resolve your matter expediently or preparing and proceeding to trial.
Life can quickly become complicated when a relationship breaks down. My goal is to make you feel heard, provide you with grounded legal advice, and help you achieve a favourable result.
Every family is unique and consequently every family law issue requires a unique approach. Whether your case may be resolved outside of the court process through negotiated settlement or if a trial is required in court, I am here to guide you through the process and represent your interest.
