Murphy Battista LLP is a litigation law firm with a long-standing reputation for taking on difficult cases for people who have been injured, sexually or physically abused, or financially harmed. While a favourable settlement is often the result, our careful preparation and willingness to go to trial is how excellent results are obtained.

We are one of B.C.’s oldest and most respected law firms, having acted only for plaintiff’s for over 40 years. This includes extensive experience advocating for those injured as a result of inadequate medical, dental, or other forms of health care.

Our firm also has a robust class action team with experience successfully challenging governments and corporations to secure justice for class members.

Our work is characterized by attention to detail and meticulous preparation in every case. Our trial success is well-documented and sets us apart. We’ve always been litigation-focused, and we will not hesitate to take cases to trial if that is the best way to meet our clients’ needs.

The contact lawyer for our Vernon office is Bill Dick, K.C.. Bill is a long time resident of the Okanagan and an exceptional lawyer. Recognized by Best Lawyers Canada™ (since 2013) and appointed King’s Counsel in 2018, Bill has over 25 years of experience representing plaintiffs in serious, complex personal injury claims, including medical malpractice and insurance disputes both at trial and on appeal. He also has expertise handling complex commercial litigation, construction law disputes, and representing plaintiffs in class action lawsuits.

We enjoy additional support from the lawyers in the Kelowna office including founding-partner Joe Murphy, K.C., Keri Grenier, and Matt Van Nostrand, as well as our colleagues in Vancouver.
