Website and initial inquiries · Updated September 23, 2026
What we collect and why
When you submit an inquiry, Westmere Law receives your name, email address, brief message, and any selected service interest. We use these details to assess whether we can assist and to respond to you. Please provide only a general overview, without confidential documents or sensitive details. The form is optional; you can call us instead.
Hosting, security, and email
Cloudflare hosts this website and processes the form submission. Cloudflare Turnstile checks for automated abuse using technical signals such as your IP address, browser information, and the site visited. IP addresses also help limit repeated submissions. Microsoft 365 delivers and stores inquiry correspondence in our business mailbox. These providers may process information outside Canada, where different laws may apply.
We do not add advertising trackers or website analytics. Cloudflare’s security services may use cookies or similar technologies as described in its notices. Reading links and map directions take you to independent websites with their own privacy practices.
Storage and safeguards
The website does not maintain a separate inquiry database. Correspondence is retained in our business email system, subject to applicable legal and professional requirements. Contact us for information about retention of your inquiry.
The site uses HTTPS and controls to limit automated abuse. We do not intentionally record inquiry content in website application logs. No online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Your choices and requests
You can request access to or correction of your personal information, ask about our privacy practices, or raise a complaint using the contact below. You may also withdraw consent on reasonable notice, subject to legal limits; this may affect our ability to respond or assist. Withdrawal does not necessarily require deletion of records we must retain. We may need to verify your identity before providing access.
This website provides general information about legal and notarial services in British Columbia. It is not legal advice for your circumstances. Laws, procedures, and linked materials can change. Obtain advice about your situation before acting or deciding not to act.
Before we act for you
Browsing this website, sending an inquiry or email, or receiving an automated acknowledgement does not by itself establish a lawyer-client relationship. We must assess whether we can assist, including conflicts of interest, and confirm the scope of any engagement. Do not assume that we are acting for you until we have confirmed this with you.
Initial contact and confidential information
Use the inquiry form only to arrange initial contact. Provide your contact details and a brief description of the type of help you need. Do not include other parties’ names, identification numbers, financial or medical details, documents, or a detailed account of events. We will explain what information is needed for a conflict check and how to share further material.
Online forms and email cannot guarantee the security of every transmission. These notices do not waive any confidentiality, privacy, or other professional obligations that apply to us.
Urgent matters and deadlines
Do not use the form for urgent matters or to protect a limitation period, court date, filing deadline, or other time limit. Submission does not confirm that a lawyer has reviewed your message or agreed to take a step for you. Call 1-778-800-7000; if we cannot assist promptly, seek other legal help without waiting for a reply.
Services and outcomes
The practice areas listed describe the kinds of matters we consider. Availability and suitability are assessed for each inquiry. No result is promised or guaranteed. Notarial services are provided by a practising BC lawyer; document and recipient requirements must be checked for the particular appointment.
External resources
Reading links identify independent publishers and the purpose of their material. Inclusion does not mean that a publisher endorses Westmere Law or that its material applies to your circumstances. We do not control external content, availability, or privacy practices. Check the source’s date, current rules, and any service eligibility requirements.
