hit by the pandemic," Choi says. She also says
the fixed-price program can also work as a
great marketing tool. "We're hoping people
will remember us when they get through all
this and are looking for a law firm."
Aside from MT Access, Choi says the main
business of Miller Titerle has been chugging
along well during the pandemic. The firm's
practice covers a full range of business legal
services, including M&A, corporate commer-
cial law, employment law, resource and
project development, financial services, liti-
gation and Indigenous law.
Key clients have included institutional
clients such as Paper Excellence, Royal Gold
and KSL Capital Partners and "mission-
driven" small and medium-sized businesses
such as Habanero, InforifAI and ChopValue.
The firm's Indigenous practice includes First
Nations clients such as Squamish, Tsleil-
Waututh, Osoyoos and Sto:lo.
Choi says the team at the core firm, with a
staff that includes 25 lawyers, switched over
"quite seamlessly" into working from home
during the pandemic. The firm also commu-
nicated to clients about what was happening
and how, while the hope was that invoices
would be paid. The firm was there to help if
necessary.
While a lot of the firm's M&A work did get
postponed earlier in the pandemic, business
has picked up to the point where "all the deal
closings we've had recently has been making
us super busy."
