Lawyers & Notaries
Small Richmond practice in Keltic Place handling corporate-commercial work, residential and commercial conveyancing, and wills, probate and estate administration. Often used by Richmond business buyers and by families sorting out planning documents.
Small practices have one advantage a downtown tower cannot match. The person you meet is the person doing the file, which means nothing quietly gets handed to an associate you never speak to. Conveyancing, incorporation and estate work are the three legal jobs most people will ever actually need, and none of them require a Vancouver address. Solomon Chiu Law Corporation covers all three, handling corporate-commercial matters, residential and commercial conveyancing, and wills, probate and estate administration.
Buying an existing business is a specific kind of transaction, and it comes up in Richmond more often than in most suburbs, given how much of the local economy runs on small owner-operated commerce. Those deals involve leases, licenses, staff and inventory rather than a purchase price alone, and they go wrong in predictable ways when nobody checks the assignment clause until the week before closing.
Keltic Place is on No. 3 Road in Brighouse, in the office cluster around Richmond Centre and Brighouse station at the south end of the Canada Line. Professional services have concentrated along this part of the corridor for decades, and the logic behind it is practical. Notaries, accountants, brokers and lawyers within a few blocks of each other helps enormously when a property deal needs three of them in the same week. If you have been meaning to sort out a will, the barrier is almost never the cost or the complexity. It is making the phone call, and that part is on you.
In the Brighouse neighbourhood of Richmond.

Longer reads from the editor, with the places worth a detour linked inside them.
The Night Market's final season is the loud story. The quieter one: free admission at the Cannery ends Monday, Britannia keeps summer hours through Sunday, and Steveston does sunsets better than anyone.

Nothing on Alexandra Road is a secret. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
