I walked in the Deer Lake Law Group without calling and booking an appointment for a free 30 minutes consultation for my family matter. The reception kindly welcomed my baby and I, and before I had even a chance to finish filling out the intake form, Mr. Antonio Simoes invited us in his office with one of his assistance and Mr. Simoes finish to fill out the form for me. And then, he carefully listened to my matter with all the considerations and he provided great legal advice, insights and suggestions on which steps I can take to solve my matter. Mr. Simoes even mentioned that he could have asked one of his colleagues or Law student to represent me if he had someone available at this moment. However, he referred me names of Law centers and Law organisations where I can surely get good free representative or legal services. I was very amazed by the professional, knowledge, and diligent of Mr. Simoes. And not only that, during my free counselling my baby was making noise so the assistance of Mr. Simoes took my baby outside and when they came back after my consultation my baby had some toys! Mr. Simoes was so well focus and engaged in my matter that the free 30 minutes consultation turned into an hour and half free consultation! Honestly, I wish I could have the money to afford Mr. Simoes and the Deer Lake Law Group to represent me on this matter because the truth is Deer Lake Law Group is my DREAM LAW group. Yes, and yes! I will recommend to everyone to go and check them out. Mr. Simoes gave me the necessary insurance and peace of mind on matter, that until today I feel like representing myself to court and win my case. I had a lawyer before on the same matter that takes 1 year but within 1 hour and half Mr. Simoes was able to easily provide great solution on my matter. I believe it is the living experience, the remarkable knowledge and the quality of the service that make the Deer Lake Law Group an exceptional and fantastic law group. My small words could have never been big enough to THANK Mr. Simoes. I know some people will think that it is nothing but if it was you, getting the wisdom and guidance I got from Mr. Simoes, I bet you will have appreciate it more. This happened few days ago, and until today Mr. Simoes still shares with me his thoughts and recommendations on my matter. WoW! Honestly, I am just blow away! I could have not keep this for myself alone! And I write more and more about my experience but I will just stop here and tell you that if you have a legal issue and you are looking for the best solution from experts, only one law group can help you with that and you know already which one. So go at Deer Lake Law Group and come here to share also your amazing experience. I am sure they have enough for everybody! Good luck to you! ;) Yours truly, M.D read more

My situation was very convoluted and confusing when I first met with Antonio and Satvinder at Deer Lake Law Group. I was working for an international company that decided to relocate me from the US to Canada. Based on my dad being born in Canada the talent recruiter indicated it would be no problem for me to attain status, however after arriving in Canada I was sent into the field and when I returned the person who was going to help me had been laid off. The remaining staff couldn't help and they told me to consult an immigration attorney. I had a paid consultation with a supposedly reputable immigration attorney who indicated I was not eligible and I should begin the PR process. While pursuing attaining PR status I was then laid off...I was a deer in the headlights, not only was our only source of income gone but my family was now in limbo if we could remain in Canada and how we would afford to move if we were not able to stay. As part of my severance package I was referred to Deer Lake Law Group and immediately Antonio and Satvinder put my mind at ease. There were some challenges to proving my status but the team at Deer Lake did some great research to find the correct path to pursue. Being a scientist, I know research takes time and it costs money to have a professional do this work but again they found the correct path before we approached CIC. Thanks to this due diligence up front we avoided getting into a long back and forth negotiation with the government. However being a bureaucratic process complete resolution still took time, during which my work permit was to expire but the folks at Deer Lake Law Group took the time to help advise my wife and I on how to pursue new jobs and get work permits renewed. Now Canada has a new family, gainfully employed and ready to be productive citizens thanks to the hard work and skills of the team at Deer Lake Law Group. read more

I had the privilege of being represented by Fatima Qamar in connection with an RTB dispute hearing. The description for my case is long, complicated, includes many technicalities, intangibles, nuances... and I pity anyone who has to go through it and wrap their head around it. However, she didn't turn it down and did a good job preparing me for the hearing. I didn't win because it's a fragile case to be won by the applicant but she got me a 2nd RTB hearing to scrub the decision from the 1st one. She did this by suggesting that I appeal the decision with a Judicial Review at the Supreme Court. It took a long time to get a lengthy court session so the complicated facts could be effectively heard but that's beyond her control. I was patient and she never gave up on me. Her presentation was compelling and the judge ruled in my favour. I would highly recommend Ms. Qamar any day. Thank you! My former landlord who didn't attend, will have an interesting reaction (I'll never know about) when she finds out over 2 years after the 1st hearing, that we're starting over. read more

I am a small business owner and had no idea how to approach the allegations of an advertising complaint launched against me. I hired Deer Lake Law Group for assistance. Right from my first contact, everyone made the process very easy. I run a very unique and niche business and I was able to email all the complaint documents and information about my business before my first appointment. When I met Antonio Simoes he had already reviewed my documentation and was well prepared for our first meeting. He gave me sound advice and helped me get ready for my next steps. I left his office with a plan and a much needed sense of relief. You can't put a price on peace of mind. Antonio and his staff are a pleasure to work with. The value of the services I received was well worth the fair fee I was charged. With confidence, I highly recommend Deer Lake Law Group, and would not hesitate to retain their services again, should the need arise. read more

I went in for a consultation at Deer Lake Law, and was extremely happy with how well it went. Antonio was super friendly and easy to talk to; he didn't mind how many times I asked him to clarify something that I didn't quite understand, and he explained things to me in layman's terms when possible. I think what impressed me the most though, was how transparent Antonio was about everything that I asked. I never once got the feeling that he was holding back any information in order to try and up-sell me later on additional services (some other firms I've dealt with in the past have done this). This was definitely my best experience yet with a law firm! I don't have any hesitation recommending this place to my friends and family in the future. read more
