OUR PHILOSOPHY

We are experienced and aggressive litigators who are fully capable of resolving complex disputes from beginning to end without extensive client involvement.  But this is not our preferred approach.

​

Our logo represents the link we share with our clients that allows us to understand their needs and to accomplish their goals.  We recognize that our clients have diverse needs.

​

Your legal needs are unique.  We believe it is critical to inform you about the law and your choices, so that you can make informed choices about the important strategic issues that will affect your life long after our representation has ended.  We are experienced counsellors at law who take pride in our ability to manage procedural matters and provide legal advice.  We inform our clients about the law, the procedures, and the customs and practices of the courts and judges before them. 

​

​But, more important than our ability to advocate, is our eagerness to listen.  When it comes to legal advice, one size does not fit all.  You have been embroiled with your dispute long before contacting us and know a great many things about it that we do not, so, your definition of success dictates the direction that we will take.  Because, we believe that after we have provided you with the knowledge necessary for you to make informed decisions, you should be the person who chooses how and on what terms your dispute is resolved.

SPECIAL EDUCATION LAW

Learn More

While it may seem difficult to know when to call a special education lawyer, there are some questions you should ask yourself in order to make the decision clearer.  Has your child been identified or diagnosed with a disability that interferes with his or her education?  Have you noticed delays or challenges in your special needs child’s learning process?

FAMILY LAW

Divorces are usually stressful, and too often they are traumatic.  Many questions may be keeping you awake at night. What will happen to your loved ones?  How will you pay for tuition and prom dresses, mortgage payments and groceries?  What is best for the children?  Where can you find resolution and the peace of mind you deserve? It probably won’t be easy, but things will get better.
