About Ascendion Law

Complex commercial litigation. Regulatory and white-collar criminal defence.

Ascendion Law, a boutique litigation firm in Vancouver, BC, focuses on complex commercial litigation and regulatory and white-collar defence. Chilwin Cheng and our team of experienced litigators conduct civil, criminal, and regulatory cases in a range of industries, including mining, oil and gas, real estate, securities, banking, financial services, and health professions. We represent our clients in matters involving complex administrative and regulatory legal issues, white-collar criminal defence, constitutional challenges, challenges of government authority, expropriations, and complicated multi-party, multi-stage, and multi-jurisdictional business litigation. We have appeared as counsel at all levels of court in British Columbia and the Supreme Court of Canada, in mediations, and before regulatory and administrative tribunals. Most of our litigation matters are referred to us by business lawyers and in-house counsel because of our experience and proven track record. Our approach to litigation management uses quantitative methods, technology, and artificial intelligence. Innovations such as fixed fee pricing models and detailed early case assessments give our clients clarity and certainty when it matters most. We analyze each situation, assess probabilities, and determine the best strategy to advance our clients’ interests, and to reduce liability, exposure, and financial risk.

We reached out to Chilwin for advice on a situation we found ourselves in. It was an area of the law that I was not that familiar with…He responded quickly and immediately put us at ease with the situation. His knowledge and background gave us great comfort that we were in very good hands. He was very relatable and communicated at a level that was easy to understand. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone requiring his field of expertise. I have dealt with many quality lawyers over my career and can honestly state that I know great service and advise when I get it, and he delivered on both accounts.

We had a very tough negotiation that we needed support with. Chilwin was able to not only help us feel calm and informed, but he actually got us a much better deal than we expected. We are incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him again and would hire him again in a heartbeat.

We were initially referred to Chilwin Cheng by another law firm as they could tell that our case was extremely sensitive and complicated as it dealt with many layers, indigenous views, traditions and cultural awareness. We met and felt immediately at ease, we felt heard and understood, we also felt confident in Mr Cheng’s ability to get things moving as he showed confidence that we could sense came from a place of efficacy. His team was very thorough and met us at our schedule which was even on Sunday evenings, whatever it took he was there to help us interpret where we were in the process, this also helped us feel confident. There were many times where my council and I were impressed with Chilwin’s ability to sort through the minutia with laser like focus and when necessary respond with extreme insight, leaving no doubt who was in command of the room. It was my first time in court and was dreading it, if anyone is feeling anxious like I was, I would 100% recommend thry meet Mr Cheng..

I recently undertook a new leadership role of a company that had pending litigation. Chilwin took the time to explain the complexities of our situation and guide me in crafting a path forward. His professionalism and straight talk was refreshing. I wouldn’t hesitate to return should we have need for his services in the future.

I had an initial interview with Chilwin on my case. He can across as a kind, compassionate and knowledgeable lawyer who understands the nature of securities law and its complexity. I wished I had came to him and know him earlier when I had my problems with my employer. I highly recommend him.

I've had the pleasure of working with Chilwin since 2016 and recently engaged his services once more in 2023, specifically for regulatory issues. Prior to this, I had consulted with various other lawyers, but Chilwin's exceptional expertise, empathy, and meticulous attention to detail truly stood out. His guidance brought me immense comfort during the most trying moments, as his communication style was consistently forthright and respectful. In negotiations with the opposing party, Chilwin displayed unwavering strength, confidence, and directness, which was both impressive and effective. His entire team upholds the same standard of integrity that he holds dear. Without hesitation, I would work with him again in the future, and I wholeheartedly recommend his professional services to anyone in need.
