Why the price is on the door
For most of a century, legal bills arrived after the work was done. Sized by the hour, and impossible to predict. We chose a different path. You see the number first, and decide with confidence.
Every matter is quoted as a fixed fee you agree to up front. Where a case carries real upside, you can choose contingency instead. No surprise invoices. No meter running in the background.
We get results for our clients.
We have obtained millions of dollars in settlements and judgments in the Supreme Court, and represented clients at every level of court. Established in Coquitlam in 1971, we are a family firm that treats your matter as our own.

Simple Legal
What is Simple Legal?
Simple Legal by Spraggs Law is an online service for fixed-price BC legal documents, like a will, a power of attorney or a bill of sale. You answer plain-language questions, pay the listed price, and download your document in Word and PDF. Its assistant, Vero, can explain what a question means, but it never answers for you or writes the document.
Is using Simple Legal the same as hiring a lawyer?
No. Using it doesn’t create a lawyer-client relationship, and it isn’t legal advice. If your answers show a document isn’t the right fit, Simple Legal tells you before you pay, and you can book a consultation instead.
When should I book a lawyer instead?
If your matter is contested or urgent, or a deadline is close, book a consultation. It’s a flat $300 plus tax, and the fee is credited toward your retainer if you hire us.
