Goodlawyer

Grateful for this recognition from The Globe and Mail. It’s been a good year to be a good lawyer (or a business that needs one).   Thank you to our talented, driven and big-hearted lawyers who make Goodlawyer their preferred way to practice. Thank you to our customers, ranging from multinationals with 10-person legal teams to scaleups making their first legal hire, who have entrusted us to help build a dynamic in-house legal function. What’s driving our growth? One answer would be Fractional. Our Fractional GC™ and Fractional InHouse™ services have helped us to break our revenue records every quarter since its launch. But that misses a big part of the story. Because, as the Globe and Mail put it, there’s a lot of grit behind the numbers. This team is as gritty as any on this Top Growing Businesses list. If the Globe measured ‘give-a-damn,’ the bar would be bursting. So big 🤟🤟 to the #Goodteam. Brett Colvin Taylor Smith Pauline Chan Grant Lahring Zak Biggs Laurie R.

The entrepreneurial spirit often begins with simple ideas and creative problem-solving. Starting a business, whether it’s selling golf balls or running a small landscaping gig, teaches valuable lessons about hard work, resourcefulness, and taking risks. 🎥 Brett Colvin #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #Leadership #HustleMindset #CalgaryBusiness

The stars have aligned and we’re beyond excited to welcome Breanna N. Richard as our new Director of Strategic Accounts! 🌟 Breanna is an absolute rockstar, and we’ve known it for years. Now that Goodlawyer has scaled to the point where we’re finally worthy of her time (😉) we’re incredibly blessed to have her join the mission! She brings an impressive background in M&A and strategic advisory, having led enterprise-level programs at Shoppers Drug Mart, Deloitte and Parkland Corporation. Breanna will be making sure our client engagements are in tip-top shape and ensure we add value beyond the incredible work our lawyers already deliver. Outside of work, Breanna has a heart for philanthropy, having started her career in non-profit at the Werklund Foundation and has supported organizations like the Down Syndrome Resource Foundation. In her free time, you’ll find Breanna crushing 6am workouts, cycling around Calgary, or traveling the world. She’s recently visited Japan, Thailand, and even caught Taylor Swift in London (ask her about her concert ‘fit!) ✨ We’re so lucky to have you on board, Breanna! 🚀 #goodlawyer #goodteam #welcomebreanna

What makes someone walk away from a stable career in law to build something completely different? In this episode of The Calgary Sessions, I sit down with Brett Colvin, co-founder and CEO of Goodlawyer, a Calgary-based startup that's changing how people access legal services. Brett shares his unique journey, from dreaming of becoming a professional soccer player to thriving as a corporate lawyer, and eventually embracing entrepreneurship. We dive into his early days of running small businesses, how his upbringing influenced his path, and why he made the bold move to leave the corporate world behind. It's a conversation about passion, risk, and following your instincts, even when the path isn't clear.

It was 2019 when my co-founder Thomas Alvarez designed our original logo. Goodlawyer was nothing more than an idea. $0 in revenue and a whole lot to prove. I had just left Biglaw and was the only lawyer on the platform, working from the kitchen table. Since then, we’ve grown into a real business with a beautiful office, impressive clients, and some of the most talented lawyers I’ve ever worked with. Today, we launched a new logo. One that captures both how far we’ve come and the exciting new chapter ahead. It represents our growth while staying rooted in our mission – to create the most desirable way for lawyers to practice. It’s been a journey, and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who has been with us along the way. Here’s to what’s next. And to continuing this adventure together. #goodlawyer #newera #newlogo

Our new logo is live 💚 Introducing the "Glogo" — made of the letters g and l, and with a fresh, vibrant look that reflects the energy and innovation we bring to legal services. Built from 3 distinct elements, it symbolizes the strength of the partnership between our amazing clients, talented lawyers, and the Goodlawyer team 🤝 This logo ties our past to the future and represents our bold, modern approach to legal.
