The Smarter Way

A Mediator Who Understands Both Sides of the Table

Daniel Corrin spent over 25 years as a courtroom trial lawyer in British Columbia. As counsel, he argued complex injury, insurance, and multi-party cases before the BC Supreme Court and Court of Appeal. He has the experience of seeing how disputes escalate, how parties dig in, and the resources required to navigate significant cases through the court process. As a result, he understands what it takes to help parties find common ground & reach lasting solutions.

Now Daniel brings that insight to the mediation process. He has completed advanced training at Pepperdine Caruso Law and attended training with the International Academy of Mediators and Mediate BC. He serves clients across Vancouver, British Columbia, and Western Canada, both in person and by video.

Daniel's approach is calm, structured, and deeply human. In a confidential process, he listens carefully, identifies the interests behind each position, and guides parties toward outcomes they sometimes surprisingly reach themselves.

When mediation works, you walk away with clarity, not uncertainty. You avoid the unpredictability of a judge's decision. You preserve relationships where possible. And you save months — sometimes years — of time and legal costs.

Daniel helps you get there.
