Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day. You never know what someone may be carrying behind a smile, a busy schedule, or a successful career.

At Koffman Kalef, we recognize that supporting mental health requires more than a conversation once a year. It requires a workplace culture that helps people thrive, both professionally and personally. We are continually working to create an environment where wellbeing is intentionally integrated into how we work because we believe people do their best work when they feel supported as whole individuals.

Some of the ways we support our team at an organizational level include:

• Hybrid work arrangements for most roles
• 4-6 weeks of vacation plus 10 personal days each year
• Comprehensive family-building support, including fertility, adoption, and surrogacy coverage
• Enhanced parental leave, including support for secondary caregivers
• Extended health coverage with access to counselling services
• A flexible wellbeing benefit and health spending account
• Regular in-house activities and educational sessions focused on mental health and wellbeing
• Ongoing opportunities for professional growth and mentorship

Mental health matters every day and requires intentional action. Take a moment to check in with yourself, and with someone you care about.

Real estate development projects involve multiple phases of legal work. Our Commercial Real Estate & Development team guides clients through all phases and types of development, such as:

- Rezoning entitlements
- Development permits
- Land assemblies and land exchanges
- Subdivision matters, including airspace parcel subdivisions
- Strata development
- Mixed-use projects
- Hotel, office, and recreational development projects

Each project is unique, and having experienced legal counsel can make the difference between a smooth transaction and costly delays. When your business needs legal counsel that understands both the law and your industry, experience makes the difference.

Today, we honour the survivors of residential schools, their families, and their communities. Truth and reconciliation is a shared responsibility, and meaningful progress can only be made by intentionally listening, learning, and building stronger relationships founded on mutual respect.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation invites all Canadians to reflect on our shared history and the lasting impacts of the residential school system. At Koffman Kalef LLP, we recognize that reconciliation is an ongoing commitment that extends beyond a single day. As legal professionals and members of the British Columbia business community, we remain dedicated to fostering respectful relationships and supporting opportunities that contribute to a more equitable future.

What's a little competition between friends?

We regularly run Strava Challenges with our team as opportunity to prioritize health and well-being, connect with each other over shared interests and...well this is Vancouver so who doesn't have a Run Club or Strava Group?

From time to time, we like to take on the teams at other firms across the city and bring some friendly, extra competitive energy. This month, we're taking on our friends over at Guild Yule!

Finding way to promote health and well-being are important parts of our firm culture, and initiatives like this remind us that community extends well beyond office walls.
