  • A commitment to providing top-tier client service and a motivation to build and manage a growing practice.
  • Membership in good standing with the Law Society of British Columbia.

What’s Offered

  • Highly competitive compensation ($145,000 - $300,000 per year) with commission and profit-sharing potential.
