I had the pleasure of working with Julia on a particularly thorny class action suit that had us going up against a big name in sports equipment manufacturing. From our first meeting in her office downtown, close to the iconic City Hall, I knew we were in capable hands. Julia's approach to our case was nothing short of meticulous, showing a depth of knowledge in product liability that I hadn't seen with other attorneys.

What set Julia apart wasn't just her legal expertise, but her ability to make complex legal jargon accessible to us, her clients. She was always ready to answer our questions, no matter how trivial they seemed, and she kept us updated every step of the way. Our case required a series of mediations and examinations for discovery, which took place in various venues around the city, from the courthouse near the river to smaller, more intimate meeting rooms in the financial district. Julia navigated these with a calm and assertive presence that instilled confidence in our team.

The trial itself was an intense process, but Julia's performance in the courtroom was impressive. Her arguments were concise and powerful, and her interaction with the jury was masterful. It was clear she was a seasoned litigator who not only understood the law but knew how to apply it effectively in real-world scenarios.

Julia's expertise in civil litigation encompasses a broad spectrum, tackling complex cases through trials, mediations, and various preliminary hearings. She deftly handles high-stakes disputes for clients facing significant claims across several domains, including insurance defense, class actions, construction issues, product liability, and healthcare-related lawsuits. Her client roster is diverse, featuring major players from the insurance industry, automotive sector, construction field, sports equipment and heavy machinery manufacturers, along with a variety of commercial entities and private individuals.

Her courtroom prowess was notably displayed in the McCrory v. Komar case, where she served as co-counsel for the defense over a rigorous 13-day jury trial. This trial was marked by numerous interlocutory motions, such as challenges related to the non-presentation of expert witnesses, debates over the admissibility of hearsay in expert reports, inflammatory evidence considerations, and discussions on including mitigation issues in the jury instructions. The outcome was a jury verdict in favor of her client. Similarly, in Baker v. Surerus, Julia's strategic acumen contributed to a favorable settlement for her client during a 20-day jury trial.

Julia's legal foundation is solid, holding a JD from the University of Victoria (2013), complemented by a Bachelor of Education (2008) and a BA in Political Science and Japanese (2007), both from the University of British Columbia. Her legal acumen is recognized across multiple jurisdictions, with admissions to the Bar in British Columbia (2014), Yukon Territory (2021), and Saskatchewan (2023).

Her specialized knowledge spans a wide array of legal disputes, from insurance claim defenses to class action lawsuits, construction conflicts, product law, healthcare disputes, automotive, and even aviation issues. Julia's multifaceted approach to litigation, combined with her deep understanding of various industries, positions her as a formidable advocate for her clients in complex legal battles.
