COQUITLAM B.C. - SOLICITOR'S PRACTICE

 

This long-established solicitor's practice has a fairly even split between Real Property (Residential, Commercial and Development Law), Corporate/Commercial and Wills/Estates.

 

Wills and Estates is presently in growth mode and there is great potential for expansion in all other areas of practice as the seller is turning away work.

 

The office is centrally located in the Tri-City area. The seller owns the premises and is prepared to lease back to the purchaser, as well as to provide assistance through a transition period.

 

DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER - FAMILY/MEDIATION AND SOLICITORS PRACTICE

 

This practice has been providing Family Law, Mediation and Business Law services to its clientele for over 25 years. The practice is 70% Family Law and Mediation with the remainder constituted of Wills/Estates and Corporate/Commercial Law.

 

The seller is a well-respected practitioner and the clientele are typically high income individuals.

 

The practice refers out all Real Estate law; the purchaser could easily expand the practice by retaining Real Estate files. The practice location could be retained as a “turnkey” situation or alternatively the practice/client list could be incorporated into an existing practice located elsewhere.

  

ESTABLISHED SOLICITOR'S PRACTICE - WEST KOOTENAYS REGION

 

This busy established practice is almost equally divided between Real Estate and Wills/Estates with about 5% corporate commercial work.  There is a significant Wills bank, and Estate Administration work is in a growth phase. 

 

The area is underserviced in all areas of practice including family and litigation, such that there is almost unlimited expansion potential. 

 

The right buyer would enjoy living in a smaller community with a friendly, eclectic vibe and easy access to adventure in the surrounding mountains, lakes and rivers.
