Great customer service, now I see why they have such great reviews here:). I was very disappointed in the way my case was handled with Winright. I contacted them initially on a Saturday via Yelp and followed up Monday. The friendly receptionist asked me to send in the paper work for the law team to review if they could help me. As time was of the essence, I quickly responded and sent in what they requested Monday. I followed up with an email Tuesday and when I did not hear back nearing the end of that day I phoned to enquire when I could set up an appointment. I was saddened to hear that the firm is too busy with other cases and they could not forsee a time when they could discuss my case with me. This exercise unfortunately cost me precious time in receiving an opinion on a time limited case. I am extremely disappointed they did not inform me from the beginning that they didn't have the time to meet with me (for 30 min!) to give an opinion. I wish I was posting another 5 star review after using their services, but my experience with them was anything but.

It was a great pleasure to have my will done at Westcoast Wills and Estates.

But they added in some companies that may be able to look into this very specific request of mine. Very honest company and so efficient. Highly recommend based on their excellent communication.

Mary Richter has provided excellent services to me. She was recommended by a large financial…read moreinstitution about 3 years ago and then again last year. As a retired lawyer, I respected her advice and her responsiveness. She was also very professional and personable. In addition, her fees were extremely reasonable. I hired Mary on two occasions. Firstly on behalf of my aged parents to prepare a codicil to a Will as well as Powers of Attorney. Secondly to prepare an Alter-Ego Trust (aka living trust) for my father. Based upon my personal experiences, I would have no hesitation to recommend Mary's services for Wills and Estates matters.

I am not at all pleased with services of lawyer Mary Richter (see website http://richter-law.ca),…read morewho was recommended by a banker then managing the wealth of aged parents following the sale of their Kitsilano home. He was recently downsized/retired rather sooner than he would have liked - probably for the best, in my view. Thanks for nothing. Ms. Richter was retained to update the wills - a fairly simple job as parents had no stock portfolios or other complicated holdings or second families to worry about - yet somehow an error was made identifying one beneficiary. Sloppy drafting - not that big a deal, right? However, rather than visit their care facility to own and correct her error, Ms. Richter summoned at her pleasure fragile, aged ps to her office, a huge, unnecessary inconvenience especially in view of Cadillac pricing of many hundred dollars an hour. Quaere whether parents may even have been billed for the time taken to correct the error. That was bad enough. More recently, ancient forebears asked Ms. Richter to inquire into the possibility of burial plots deceased father-in-law may have purchased for his wife and daughter at a local cemetery. A fairly simple matter, one would have thought, but Ms. Richter was disinclined to stir her lazy stumps. She didn't want the work even after ancients expressed willingness to pay to end the nagging uncertainty. Because burial plots today represent considerable real estate assets, we found this a most irksome, unsatisfactory response. Frankly, it cast doubt on Ms. Richter's efforts such that I have now suggested the file be referred to a competitor, someone who proofreads his work and considers the wishes and frailties of his clients, someone with a more enlightened approach and commitment to service. i wish parents could have paid an earnest law student instead to do the work at a fraction of the cost and inconvenience, but the Law Society of British Columbia won't allow even graduates to charge for services until they have: 1) articled a year with one of the only about three firms big enough to offer such positions, 2) re-completed law school from a six-week refresher make-work course and 3) passed a bar exam re-examining the already examined materials studied over three years at law school. Maverick young Ontario lawyers recently made a pitch to end such medieval nonsense as have some of their counterparts in the U.S. but lawyers so far maintain a tenacious grip on who can charge for services. The monopoly lawyers impose on us is nothing more than a determined effort to restrict trade in order to protect outrageous, utterly undeserved fees, which have in turn created an access to justice crisis just about everywhere. Nor does the lawyers' regulating body in ANY jurisdiction do much, if anything, to protect the public contrary to their lofty promises. Happily, the second machine age now very much upon us will soon replace these ancient, rusted has-beens with software that will do the work faster, better and cheaper. I also understand that one may contract for the drafting and litigation of a will with a freelancer at Elance, a virtual law office of some renown where clients are not expected to subsidize a high-end downtown or, in Ms. Richter's case, Kerrisdale rent.
