Practicing primarily as a solicitor servicing the business community, Matthew’s practice is concentrated largely on corporate, commercial and international matters.
As an effective advocate, Matthew’s clients rely on him for his breadth and depth of knowledge across a wide range of legal areas, as well as for his practical solutions to strategic business, dispute resolution and risk management issues.
Matthew has an extensive industry background, from working with entrepreneurs and start-ups to multinational corporations and, before entering the world of law, in the technology industry with the world’s largest IT distribution company. Prior to joining MEP, Matthew served as senior counsel at an international law firm, where he oversaw the business and corporate law group for their Canadian operations.
While much of his time is now spent with clients focused on mergers and acquisitions, commercial real estate, buying and selling businesses, and financing, Matthew can also be found exploring the Lower Mainland’s hiking trails with his rescue dog, Maya, or earnestly seeking warmer locales with his wife.
