About Nixon Wenger LLP
People rarely go looking for a law firm out of curiosity. There is a house closing on a date that cannot move, a will that should have been written years ago, a farm or a business changing hands, an injury claim, an employment dispute, or a separation that has reached the point where both sides need advice rather than argument. Nixon Wenger LLP is at 2706 30 Ave in downtown Vernon, in the professional core of the North Okanagan's main service centre.
Law firms differ in what they cover. A full service practice typically runs several groups: real estate and conveyancing, wills, estates and trusts, corporate and commercial work, civil litigation, personal injury, family law, and employment. Smaller offices and notaries handle a narrower band, with notaries in British Columbia dealing in conveyancing, simple wills and notarial services but not court work or contested matters. Knowing which side of that line your problem sits on saves everybody time, and it is the first thing anyone answering the phone will try to establish.
Before that first conversation, gather what you have. Contracts, correspondence, dates, the names of anyone else involved, and any deadline already imposed by a court, a lender or a purchaser. Ask how the file will be billed, whether that is hourly, a flat fee for a defined job such as a conveyance, or a contingency arrangement in an injury matter, and ask who will actually be handling the work. Vernon's downtown puts the government offices and the professional block within a few blocks of each other, which makes an appointment here easy to combine with the rest of an errand.
