about us
OUR LAW FIRM
Dealing with your legal issues can be difficult and overwhelming at times – with us you will never feel estranged. We believe that being compassionate, responsible and sincere with our clients will be the starting point in solving their legal issues. We are committed to facilitate justice by making legal help accessible to all.
OUR STRENGTH
Our lawyers are seasoned with their several years of experience in multijurisdictional communities. Yet they are affordable and accessible by making themselves available just one call away. Often best legal helps are those that are available on a timely basis and we are committed about earliest resolution whenever possible.
OUR APPROACH
We believe that being professional does not mean counting every seconds while serving the clients. We are open to provide unbundled services for the clients who are able to self-represent with little help. We take appointments during evenings or weekends depending on the sensitivity and urgency of the matter in hand.
OUR FEES
Unless otherwise specified, our fees are based on hourly rate, which means that the total cost of the work will depend on the amount of time we will spend. We will require retainer fund at the beginning of the work and these funds will be held in a trust account and will only be redeemed for the work we will do on your file.
*All fees are subject to HST and other applicable disbursements to be discussed at the time of retainer.
