Vancouver boutique Fraser Litigation is a new addition to Benchmark in this edition, but its prime mover and lead partner Barry Fraser has been an established pillar of the local legal community for decades. “We have dealt with Barry Fraser for years,” testifies one peer. “It’s not easy! He puts you through the paces.” Another peer extols, “They are an outstanding group, and very likely may have been the first legal group to win against the Alberta Insurance Council.” Clients have been appreciative of the advocacy provided by the firm. “Fraser Litigation represented our directors in several matters in the BC Supreme Court,” declares one satisfied client. “He and the firm also provided invaluable advice and service to our company for similar matters. Their principal partners consistently demonstrated sage acumen with the highest care for our individual directors. Fraser Litigation was also exemplary in terms of creative but regimented problem solving and strategic design. Finally, the firm performed effectively in all court sessions with commendable conviction, diligence, and clarity.”
