OVERVIEW
Joe Chan is the Practice Group Leader of our Asia Pacific Group, and a member of the firm’s Business, and Technology and Innovation Groups. He has been a member of Richards Buell Sutton since moving to Vancouver more than a decade ago. Prior to that move, he lived and practiced law in Calgary. Through all of that time – and now – Joe has advised on business law, mergers and acquisitions, and securities/corporate finance matters for a broad range of clients, including TSX/NEO/TSXV/CSE listed public, mining, resource, real estate investment, technology, and video game companies. He also advises on trusts and joint ventures, and for restaurants, artists and writers, to name a few.
Joe has experience with a wide array of mergers and acquisitions and other business transactions, assisting clients from the “start-up” phase of their business to the “exit” sale of their business, and all issues and challenges that arise in-between – all with a focus on providing sensible, practical advice to help his clients realize their dreams (and, hopefully more).
He has also worked on securities law matters, from assisting clients through their IPOs, debt and equity financings, corporate governance matters, plans of arrangement, and ‘go private’ transactions, as well as on a broad range of cross-border transactions.
Outside of his legal work, Joe has written about food, music and art for numerous publications, was the publisher/editor of a monthly arts/culture magazine, and a co-editor/writer for two food websites.
Joe provides legal services through Joe Chan Law Corporation.
