Very poor overall. This so called lawyer doesn't know what he is doing and like other lawyers he…read moresucked major chunk of my the retainer fees just on the basis of correspondence where he deliberately didn't give me any answer or conclusion to elongate the conversation to make most money out of it. Would never recommend this lawyer. Also, before and after hiring he went for vacations leaving the professional things behind that he undertook. Not only this, in the last phone calling he said he had no idea whatsoever what to do next? I was so shocked to hear that and I thought then why are you even a lawyer and why the heck did you take money from me on first place? Because of this kind of lawyer it becomes very hard to trust any lawyer going further as they all disguise nicely at first time and then once they receive the retainer fees they begin to unveil their true greedy faces!

HORRIBLE ! I retained LISA this lawyer to assist with an appeal related to parenting time with my…read morechildren, a serious and time-sensitive matter. Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. Her rates were significantly higher than other lawyers I considered, and given that she represented having 25 years of experience, I expected a high level of competence and efficiency. That was not my experience. A considerable amount of billed time appeared to be spent essentially studying basic appeal procedures, and I observed her asking a paralegal what seemed to be simple, foundational questions. This was concerning, particularly given the level of fees being charged. There were also major issues with document preparation. I was provided forms that were not usable, including notarization documents that lacked the required structure. Because I was outside Canada, this created urgent complications and forced me to redo critical materials myself at the last minute. Most concerning was the lack of communication and reliability. At a critical deadline, she became completely unresponsive and unavailable, leaving me to handle an important filing on my own without guidance. This caused delays in my appeal and added significant stress to an already high-stakes situation. I also observed inconsistencies in billing, including charges that did not appear to align with the nature or level of work performed. Overall, given the rates charged and the level of experience represented, the service I received did not reflect the professionalism, preparedness, or competence that one would reasonably expect. Others may wish to carefully consider experience with appeals, responsiveness, and billing transparency before retaining counsel.HORRIBLE
