Gursharn Singh Gandham*

A strategist before he is a lawyer.

Gursharn is a corporate and commercial lawyer with a concentrated practice in secured lending, commercial financing, and M&A transactions. As Founder and Principal of GSG Law, he leads a full-service boutique firm advising clients across all stages of complex commercial and real estate matters — business acquisitions and dispositions, structured debt financings, corporate reorganizations, and commercial leasing.

Gursharn advises banks, credit unions, real estate developers, and private lenders on the structuring, documentation, and registration of security in connection with commercial financing transactions. Alongside that, he advises entrepreneurs, business owners, and families on the structural decisions that shape companies — formation, partnership agreements, succession, and the disputes that arise when documents don't anticipate the future they were meant to protect.

His clients describe his work as "thinking three moves ahead." He describes it as listening carefully to what the business actually is, then designing the legal architecture that will hold up against everything it might become.

That perspective is rooted in his upbringing. His family has long been involved in real estate development and the operation of multiple service-industry businesses — experience that gave him a working knowledge of how companies are actually built, how partnerships hold or break, and where the legal architecture either supports or undermines the underlying business.

He works in close coordination with the firm's litigation, real estate, and estate practices, and with our in-house accountant on every matter where tax structure and legal structure inform one another.

Areas of concentrated experience.

Professional standing.

Outside the office.

Outside the practice, Gursharn is a builder by temperament. He is engaged with the local entrepreneurial community in the Lower Mainland, mentors emerging founders, and brings the same long-view thinking to his own life that he brings to his clients' files. Fitness and training are a personal discipline — the same consistency he expects of himself in the gym is the consistency his clients expect from his work. He works in English, Punjabi, and Hindi, and is at home in conversations that move between them.
