As many of you may have heard, I was elected to the BC Legislature as MLA for Maple Ridge - Mission in the 2017 election. I am really happy to have started a relationship with Tim Murphy and his team of lawyers at Murphy & Company. This move is great for you and my other clients as I can now offer a wider range of legal services through the firm's broad legal practice. Murphy & Company was establi
shed in 2011 with the goal of advising entrepreneurs to turn their vision into reality. Since then, M&C has grown into a mid-sized, Vancouver law firm that delivers comprehensive legal advice to a broad spectrum of clients, from start-ups to public companies. I am also very pleased to be working again with Kurt Dahl. Kurt started his practice with me and once again we will be working together to build the entertainment law practice at Murphy & Company. Kurt is deeply involved in the music and film industries in Canada and abroad. He has an extensive experience negotiating and drafting all forms of agreements in the entertainment industry, and his clients include some of the most successful and recognized musicians, record labels, managers, authors, models, and publishing companies across Canada. If you have any questions or legal needs, you can still reach me at all the same places (my present email and phone numbers will stay active), or through Murphy & Company:
