Rocky Kim on building a flexible, province-wide real estate and lending practice

Mar 10, 2026

   

In this episode, Canadian Lawyer’s Tim Wilbur speaks with BC lawyer Rocky Kim, founder of Rocky Kim Law Corporation, about how he swapped a punishing Vancouver commute and traditional long-term leases for a Kelowna-based, flexible office model. Kim explains why he sees co-working space as infrastructure rather than a cost-saving hack, how mobile signing agents and short-term offices let his team meet clients where they are, and why he refuses to close sensitive lending and real estate files in coffee shops. He also talks through hiring for tech comfort, serving smaller communities that have lost their local lawyers, and what other practitioners get wrong when they think about going out on their own.
