Kelly Murray

For more than 30 years, Kelly has been resolving commercial and insurance disputes.

From large corporations, small to large commercial and residential brokerages, insurers to individual professionals, her clients are accustomed to Kelly’s absolute focus on resolution whether by way of court, settlement conferences, mediations, negotiations or other effective methods.

For disputes that escalate to litigation, she is a careful and considered advocate for her clients through mediation or in trial. Kelly has appeared before all levels of courts in British Columbia and before various administrative tribunals. She has been recognized by her peers in the area of Insurance Law and Legal Malpractice Law in Best Lawyers of Canada.

In addition to resolving and litigating cases for her clients, Kelly is often retained to provide day-to-day advice to help avoid costly litigation. Her practical approach, exceptional communication skills and attentiveness to her clients’ needs results in early, cost-effective resolutions.

Her decades-long ability to successfully collaborate and mediate solutions has increasingly benefited her clients and further informed her interest and passion in seeking opportunities to mediate disputes. Kelly’s commitment to alternative methods of resolving disputes included attendance to the highly-regarded Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at Pepperdine University where she further honed her mediation skills. Kelly’s mediation practice focuses primarily on corporate commercial disputes and insurance disputes (including professional liability, personal injury, and property claims).

Kelly has authored a number of articles and training materials for various professional organizations in British Columbia. She has been involved, throughout her career, in mentoring young lawyers, both informally in the law firms and formally through the Women Lawyers Forum Mentoring program. She provides pro bono services and is a member of Legal Education and Action Fund and a volunteer with Mom2Mom.
