Westbrook offers considerate legal advisory services across investment immigration, commercial property matters, and regulatory compliance in Vancouver and throughout Canada.
We provide attentive guidance across three core practice areas, each designed to support your specific legal requirements in the Canadian context.
Knowledgeable guidance for high-net-worth individuals exploring Canadian immigration through investment pathways. Services cover federal and provincial investor programs, entrepreneur streams, and self-employed categories.
Careful legal support for businesses securing commercial premises in the Canadian market. Services include lease negotiation, term review, tenant improvement provisions, and renewal option analysis.
Systematic examination of business operations against applicable Canadian regulatory requirements. Services address industry-specific compliance, employment standards, privacy legislation, and corporate governance obligations.
Our approach emphasizes understanding your particular circumstances and providing guidance that respects both legal requirements and practical considerations. We believe effective legal counsel comes from careful listening and measured advice.
We take time to understand your situation before offering recommendations, ensuring our guidance aligns with your specific needs.
Legal matters deserve straightforward explanation. We work to ensure you understand options and implications without unnecessary complexity.
We aim to address inquiries promptly and keep you informed throughout the process, respecting your time and schedule.
We welcome the opportunity to learn about your situation and explore how our services might be helpful. Reach out to arrange a consultation at your convenience.
Timelines vary considerably depending on the specific program and individual circumstances. Federal programs may take 12-24 months, while provincial programs can differ. We provide realistic timeframe estimates during initial consultations based on current processing patterns and your particular situation.
We begin by understanding your business requirements and reviewing the proposed terms carefully. Our focus is identifying provisions that may present concerns and suggesting protective language. We aim to help you secure terms that support your business objectives while maintaining productive landlord-tenant relationships.
The review systematically examines your operations against relevant Canadian regulations. This includes employment standards, privacy requirements, industry-specific rules, and corporate governance obligations. We identify areas where practices may not fully align with requirements and provide practical recommendations for achieving compliance that acknowledge your resource considerations.
We provide transparent pricing for our core services. Investment immigration guidance is CAD $2,200, commercial lease work is CAD $680, and regulatory compliance reviews are CAD $1,100. These represent starting points; we discuss scope and provide clear estimates during initial consultations. Additional work beyond standard scope is billed separately with prior discussion.
While based in Vancouver, we work with clients throughout British Columbia and across Canada. Immigration matters are federal with some provincial components. Commercial property and compliance work may involve local regulations, and we coordinate with local counsel when beneficial. We're comfortable working remotely and arrange in-person meetings when helpful.
Client confidentiality is fundamental to our practice. We maintain strict protocols for document handling, secure communication channels, and limited information access. All team members understand and adhere to professional confidentiality obligations. We're happy to discuss specific security measures during our initial conversation if you have particular concerns.
Located in downtown Vancouver's business district, convenient for meetings and consultations.
We're available to discuss your legal needs and answer any questions you may have.
