Our complimentary initial consultations are typically 30 minutes in length. This allows us to gather information about your matter, discuss your legal needs, and determine how we may be able to assist you. If additional time or services are required, we will discuss the next steps and during or following the consultation.

No. A lawyer-client relationship is only established once both you and the firm have signed a retainer agreement and any required retainer funds have been received.

Following the consultation, we may:

• Provide preliminary legal guidance;

• Request additional information;

• Provide a fee estimate or retainer agreement; or

• Advise if the matter falls outside our practice areas.

We strive to respond to all intake form submissions, emails, and voicemail messages as promptly as possible. In most cases, you can expect to hear from a member of our team within 24 hours, excluding weekends and statutory holidays.

Please contact our office as soon as possible if you need to cancel or reschedule so that we can accommodate other clients and arrange a new appointment.

We generally accept the following valid, government-issued photo identification:

• Driver's Licence

• Passport

• Permanent Resident Card

• Citizenship Card (if applicable)

• Provincial or Territorial Photo Identification Card

• Secure Certificate of Indian Status Card

The identification must be current and not expired, unless otherwise approved by the firm.

Please provide the corporation's legal name, business number (if applicable), and the names of all directors, officers, and beneficial owners, as additional identification and verification requirements may apply.
