What Singleton Urquhart Reynolds Vogel does

Singleton Urquhart Reynolds Vogel LLP is a Canadian national law firm founded in 1982 and headquartered in Vancouver, with a second full-service office in Toronto. The firm is structured as a Limited Liability Partnership owned and controlled by its partners, with no external institutional or parent-company investment. It specializes in construction and infrastructure law, insurance litigation, commercial real estate, and commercial litigation, operating across 16 practice areas including construction disputes, alternative dispute resolution, arbitration, corporate commercial, employment and labour, surety, product liability, professional liability, and wills and estates. The firm also operates an in-house eDiscovery Services capability supporting complex litigation and document-heavy matters.

The firm serves enterprise and government clients across the construction value chain — owners, contractors, consultants, engineers, architects, developers, insurers, and institutional real estate investors. Marquee mandates include acting as fairness monitor on 90+ major Canadian infrastructure projects over the past 15 years, advising on more than $10B of healthcare facility construction, $12B of energy projects including a $6.2B hydroelectric mandate, and $4B light rail transit systems, plus co-counsel work for the Government of Ontario and Government of Canada on prompt payment and adjudication legislation.

Revenue is generated through traditional professional services billing — hourly rates, fixed fees, contingency arrangements, and project-based engagements — with pricing negotiated per matter. Distribution is direct via two offices (Vancouver at 925 West Georgia Street and Toronto at 150 King Street West), supplemented by thought-leadership publishing, industry association participation, and long-tenured client referrals. Go-to-market relies on relationship-based enterprise engagement rather than volume-based sales.
