London, Ontario · Criminal · Family · Civil
A lawyer reads your whole story first. Then we tell you, honestly, whether this is a matter we should take.
What we do
Charges, bail, and what happens next.
From the first police contact to the courtroom. Bail hearings, disclosure review, Charter applications, resolution discussions, and trial. You will know what the Crown has, what it means, and what your options are — before you decide anything.
Separation, parenting, and support — handled with care.
Separation and divorce, decision-making and parenting time, child and spousal support, and the division of property. Where agreement is possible we pursue it; where it is not, we act for you in the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court.
Disputes about money, contracts, and property.
Contract disputes, debt and collections, property disagreements, and claims in the Small Claims Court and the Superior Court of Justice. We tell you plainly whether a claim is worth pursuing before you spend on it.
How it works
In your own words, in English, French, or Arabic — by form or by voice. Confidential, at your own pace, at no cost.
Your account reaches a lawyer before anyone books time. If we can act for you, we say so. If we cannot, we tell you where to go instead.
One hour, $350. Spent on your questions and your next steps — not on catching us up.
Consultation: one hour, $350. Matters anywhere in Ontario. Sending us your story creates no lawyer-client relationship until we both agree to one.
