Butterfly Legal

"I lent my friend money. We didn't sign anything. She promised to pay me back. Can I actually enforce it?" If you're a lawyer or run a business, you probably field some version of this question constantly — at dinners, in DMs, from family members who preface it with "quick question…" People's Law School is one of the best answers to that problem in BC. They've been helping everyday people understand legal concepts through plain-language resources and free webinars for a really long time. On April 21, I'm doing one of those webinars with them: Everyday Contract Law in BC. One hour, free, online. We'll cover handshake deals, clickwrap agreements, gym contracts, liability waivers, breach, NDAs — the questions that actually come up. If someone in your life could use it, please send it along.

I got to sit down with Jordan Brown last week for his The First Dollar Podcast. Full disclosure: I'm a customer and a fan. I switched to @AskBenny after my last (human-based) receptionist service made a serious error that I couldn't overlook. Gave AI a shot, never looked back. What Jordan's built is genuinely impressive. If you want to check it out, call my business line: 778-721-0129. Jordan had me on to talk about the early days of getting a business off the ground — why I walked away from traditional law practice, how Butterfly Legal got started, and what it actually feels like to be a solo founder when things get tough. No fluff. Go give it a watch. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gpJXZBKU

💬 “It is lonely and it is scary trying to find help when you cannot afford a lawyer. When you have mental disabilities, mood disorders, and fluctuating cognitive abilities it is harder. One of my biggest barriers in finding help is being understood.” These words are heartbreaking — and they’re far too common. At Butterfly Legal, we believe no one should have to face the legal system alone or feel misunderstood in the process. Our mission is to make justice more accessible by helping people represent themselves with clarity, confidence, and support. 🦋 Through legal coaching, we guide self-represented litigants step by step — empowering them to understand their rights, organize their case, and tell their story with confidence. Because access to justice shouldn’t depend on income, background, or ability. Everyone deserves to be heard. 💙 #AccessToJustice #LegalCoaching #ButterflyLegal #SelfRepresentation #Empowerment #SmallClaimsBC #JusticeForAll

⚖️ #AccesstoJustice is evolving — and Butterfly Legal is proud to be part of the story. 🌟 https://lnkd.in/e7H5SxaG We’re grateful to Canadian Bar Association National Magazine for featuring 🦋 Butterfly Legal in their recent article on legal coaching and the growing movement to support self-represented litigants. Every year, thousands of Canadians head into court alone — often overwhelmed, unprepared, and uncertain about their next steps. Legal coaching changes that. At Butterfly Legal, we help people cut through the stress, build a clear strategy, and walk into court confident and ready. But this is just the beginning. We believe technology and teaching can make legal services truly scalable — so that affordable, high-quality guidance isn’t the exception, but the norm. That’s why we’re about to launch a new online platform designed to empower even more people with the tools, coaching, and clarity they need. 🚀 Want to be the first to know when it launches? 👉 Sign up link in the comments to be notified Together, we can make the justice system more accessible, one case at a time. 💙

🏳️🌈 Pride is protest. Pride is joy. Pride is power. At Butterfly Legal, we believe access to justice is a cornerstone of queer liberation — and we’re proud to be building tools that help protect it. Here’s to a freer, fairer future. #VancouverPride #QueerJustice #PrideIsPolitical
