WHAT WE DO

Practice Areas That Actually Matter

We're not trying to be everything to everyone. These are the areas where we've built real expertise - the kind that comes from actually doing the work, not just reading about it.

Corporate Governance & Compliance

Honestly, governance stuff can put anyone to sleep - but it's what keeps regulators off your back. We help set up board structures, compliance frameworks, and policies that actually make sense for how your business runs. Not just checkbox exercises that sit in a drawer somewhere.

  • Board governance setup
  • Regulatory compliance audits
  • Policy development
  • Risk management strategies

Intellectual Property Protection

Your ideas are your competitive edge, plain and simple. We've worked with startups and established companies to lock down their IP - whether that's patents for new tech, trademarks for brands, or trade secrets that give them an edge. It's about making sure nobody can just swipe what you've built.

  • Patent applications & strategy
  • Trademark registration
  • Copyright protection
  • IP litigation support

Technology & Data Privacy Law

Data privacy laws have gotten ridiculously complex - PIPEDA, GDPR, and whatever new regulations pop up next month. We help tech companies figure out what data they can collect, how to store it properly, and what to do when things go sideways. Because they will eventually.

  • PIPEDA compliance
  • Data breach response
  • Privacy policy drafting
  • Tech licensing agreements

Contract Drafting & Negotiation

Contracts are where deals either work out or blow up in your face later. We've reviewed thousands of agreements - vendor contracts, partnership deals, service agreements - and know exactly where companies try to slip in stuff that'll come back to bite you. Our job is making sure your interests are protected without scaring off the other side.

  • Commercial agreements
  • Vendor & supplier contracts
  • Service level agreements
  • Deal negotiation support

Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory

M&A deals are stressful enough without worrying about legal landmines. We've been through dozens of transactions - helping buyers do proper due diligence and sellers structure deals that actually close. It's about finding the problems before they become deal-breakers and making sure everyone walks away satisfied.

  • Due diligence reviews
  • Deal structuring advice
  • Purchase agreement drafting
  • Post-merger integration

Employment & Labour Law

Employment law changes faster than most businesses can keep up with. We help companies draft employment contracts that'll hold up, handle terminations without getting sued, and navigate workplace disputes before they escalate. Plus, making sure your HR policies aren't stuck in 1995.

  • Employment contracts
  • Termination advice
  • Workplace investigations
  • HR policy development

WHY UNIFIED VECTOR

We're Not Your Typical Law Firm

Most law firms are still operating like it's 1985 - stuffy offices, incomprehensible bills, and lawyers who speak in riddles. We decided to do things differently because frankly, that old model doesn't work for modern businesses.

Plain English Communication

We'll explain things in terms you can actually understand. No legalese unless it's absolutely necessary, and even then we'll translate it for you. Your time's valuable - we're not gonna waste it making you decode legal jargon.

Tech-Focused Approach

We actually get technology. Half our clients are tech companies, and we've worked on everything from SaaS agreements to blockchain projects. When you explain your product, we won't just nod and smile - we'll understand what you're building.

Transparent Pricing

You'll know what things cost upfront. No surprise bills that make you spit out your coffee. We offer flat fees for standard work and clear hourly rates when that makes more sense. The goal is predictability, not billing gymnastics.

CLIENT FEEDBACK

What People Actually Say About Us

These are real testimonials from clients we've worked with. No marketing fluff - just honest feedback about what it's like to have us in your corner.

HOW WE WORK

Our Process Is Pretty Straightforward

We're not gonna overcomplicate this. Here's basically how things work when you bring us on board.

1

Initial Consultation

You tell us what's going on - no holding back. We'll ask questions, figure out what you actually need (not just what you think you need), and be upfront about whether we're the right fit.

2

Strategy & Proposal

We'll lay out a game plan with clear timelines and costs. No vague estimates or surprise fees later. You'll know exactly what we're gonna do and what it'll cost before we start.

3

Execution

We get to work. You'll get regular updates - not radio silence for weeks. If something changes or we hit a snag, you'll know about it right away. No hiding behind legal jargon.

4

Follow-Through

We wrap things up, make sure everything's in order, and stick around for questions. Many of our clients end up keeping us on retainer because things always come up.

FAQ

Questions We Get Asked A Lot

Here are the answers to stuff people usually want to know before reaching out.

Depends on what you need, honestly. For routine stuff like contract reviews or standard agreements, we usually do flat fees - you'll know the exact cost upfront. For complex matters like M&A or litigation, we work hourly but always give you a realistic estimate range. Our standard hourly rate is $450, but we're flexible for startups and can discuss retainer arrangements if you need ongoing support. Bottom line: no surprise bills, ever.

Both, actually. We've helped plenty of startups get their legal foundation right from day one - incorporation, founder agreements, early-stage IP protection, that kind of thing. We get that startups have different budgets, so we're willing to work with you on pricing and prioritize what actually matters at your stage. That said, we also handle complex work for established companies doing M&A, regulatory compliance, and multi-million dollar deals. Size doesn't matter as much as having your stuff together and being straight with us about what you can afford.

For clients on retainer, we aim to respond within a few hours during business hours, often faster if it's genuinely urgent. For everyone else, we try to get back within 24 hours. If you've got a legit emergency - like you just got served or there's a regulatory deadline tomorrow - call us directly and we'll make it work. We're not gonna leave you hanging when things are on fire.

Look, we're not gonna pretend we're the only good lawyers in town - there are lots of talented firms out there. What sets us apart is we actually understand technology and don't talk down to clients. We've worked in-house at tech companies, understand how software works, know what SaaS metrics mean, and can read a cap table without needing a translator. Plus we're just more straightforward - no billable hour games, no intentionally confusing explanations to make ourselves seem smarter. We're here to solve problems, not create mystique around what we do.

We're licensed in Ontario, so that's where we can directly represent you in legal matters. That said, we've got a network of trusted lawyers across Canada and internationally that we work with regularly. For federal matters like IP protection, incorporation, or regulatory compliance that crosses provincial lines, we can usually handle it directly. If you need something done in another province or country, we'll coordinate with local counsel and manage the whole process so you're not dealing with multiple law firms.

That works for us. Not every legal issue needs a full engagement. Sometimes you just need someone to review a contract, give you a second opinion on something, or help you understand your options. We offer limited scope services where we handle just the specific piece you need help with. Could be as simple as a one-hour consultation to talk through a situation, or reviewing specific documents. We'll be clear about what we can and can't do within that scope, and if it turns into something bigger, we can always expand the engagement.

Yeah, we do a fair bit of employment law work. Terminations are tricky - do them wrong and you're looking at a wrongful dismissal lawsuit. We help companies structure terminations properly, calculate severance that's actually compliant, and handle negotiations with departing employees. We also draft employment contracts, non-competes, and confidentiality agreements that'll actually hold up. If you've got workplace issues brewing - harassment complaints, performance management, restructuring - we can guide you through it or conduct workplace investigations when needed.

First consultation is usually about 30-45 minutes, and we offer it free for most situations. You tell us what's going on, we ask clarifying questions, and we'll give you our honest assessment of what you're dealing with. We'll talk about potential approaches, rough timelines, and ballpark costs. If we think you don't actually need a lawyer, we'll tell you that too - happened more than once. If it makes sense to work together, we'll send over an engagement letter outlining exactly what we'll do and what it'll cost. No pressure, no hard sell, just straight talk about your options.
