2018 - The Beginning
Where it all started...
Look, I'll be honest - starting Ignis Wyrm wasn't some grand plan hatched in law school. After years at big corporate firms where clients were just billable hours, I'd had enough of the corporate machine. Watching brilliant entrepreneurs and creators get steamrolled by legal jargon and predatory contracts? That lit a fire in me.
The dragon motif isn't just cool branding (though it is pretty cool). Dragons guard their treasures fiercely, and that's exactly how we approach your business interests. Your company, your IP, your vision - that's the treasure we're protecting.
2020 - Growth & Adaptation
Evolving with the times...
When the world shut down, we didn't. While everyone scrambled to figure out remote work, we'd already been operating lean and flexible. That year taught us something crucial - businesses needed legal partners who could pivot fast, not firms stuck in 1995 workflows.
We expanded into tech startups, helped clients navigate pandemic-related legal nightmares, and proved that you don't need a corner office to deliver top-tier legal work. Some of our best contract negotiations happened over video calls at midnight because that's when the deal was happening.
2022-2023 - Building the Realm
Assembling the guardians...
Here's where things got real. We brought on specialists who actually gave a damn - not just about law, but about understanding what keeps business owners up at night. IP attorneys who've been through patent wars, corporate lawyers who've seen M&A deals from every angle, litigators who aren't afraid to go to bat when negotiation fails.
We moved into our current space on West Georgia - yeah, it's got that downtown Vancouver view, but more importantly, it's got the infrastructure to serve clients across BC and beyond. The "Realm" became more than a name; it became a space where clients felt protected, not patronized.
2025 - Today
Where we stand now...
Seven years in, and we're still that firm that answers emails on weekends (within reason - we've got lives too). We've handled everything from startup incorporations to multi-million dollar acquisitions, trademark disputes to employment law messes that could fill a Netflix series.
What hasn't changed? We still treat every client like they're our only client. Whether you're a solo founder with a killer idea or an established company ready to scale, you get the same fierce protection. That's the Ignis Wyrm promise.
