Bryan has been described by clients and colleagues as a “business disputes specialist” (and on occasion by his friends and family as a “disputes enthusiast”).  He takes a very practical approach to the practice of law, focusing on obtaining positive outcomes so clients can focus their energies on running their businesses, organizations, and personal lives.

Maintaining a broad corporate and commercial litigation practice, Bryan has particular expertise in shareholder, director, complex contractual, and real property disputes.  He also has experience representing clients in plan of arrangement proceedings, and a variety of restructuring and insolvency matters.

Bryan appears regularly in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, and has also appeared before the British Columbia Court of Appeal, Federal Court, and has assisted clients with regulatory investigations.  He has also achieved positive outcomes through alternative dispute resolution, and informal “boardroom litigation”.

Best Lawyers has recognized Bryan in the areas of corporate and commercial litigation, as has Benchmark Litigation.  Prior to joining Allen / McMillan, he practiced at two top ranked national business law firms.

Bryan resides in North Vancouver with his wife and son but has been told he lives in the 1990s when it comes to music, television, film, and fashion, which he takes as a compliment.
