Farming is big business with its own, unique set of legal issues, and so the modern farmer requires sophisticated legal assistance to make sound business decisions. With our roots in the Fraser Valley and the local agricultural community, Baker Newby LLP has developed a wealth of experience in agri-business legal matters, including taxation, Agricultural Land Commission application, environmental issues, flooding and drainage, quota baords and transactions, farm family estate and succession planning, lending transactions, farm acquisitions, and a whole variety of general business issues.

Committed to Agriculture
Baker Newby LLP is committed to agriculture. To better serve the needs of farmers and agri-businesses in the Fraser Valley and in British Columbia, Baker Newby LLP has formed an Agriculture Law Group with the specific mandate of better understanding the legal and non-legal issues facing today's farmers and agri-businesses. Lawyers in the group recognize the importance of agriculture to our economy and society, and understand that a strong agriculture sector means a strong economy for the province.

Involved in Agriculture
Lawyers in our Agriculture Law Group are actively involved in agriculture. Some of them are farmers themselves. Others are actively involved in agriculture related groups such as the BC Landscape & Nursery Association, the Agriculture Committee of the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce, the B.C. Hereford Association, the Chilliwack Fair Board, 4-H and the B.C. Agriculture Council.
