What Colin's Clients Say
"I needed a Contract Litigator for a very complicated and contentious situation. Colin was excellent at examining all the circumstances in my case and working out a strategy that would put me in the best possible position to win in court. Every detail was attended to and Colin made sure to explain the steps I would encounter in the legal process and likely outcome. I found Colin to be conscientious and dedicated. I also appreciate how Colin deliberately looked out for my best interests and guided me in the proper direction."
"Hands down the best employment lawyer in Toronto. Very knowledgeable and hardworking, and has deep understanding about Securities laws...If you received a lesser severance package from your employer or if you were wrongfully dismissed, then Colin is your man. This guy is easily an 11/10,as no form of rating can really define his expertise.no time waster, gets down to business from day 1 , and resolves your case in the quickest possible manner"
"I hired Colin to represent me in a severance negotiation case with my former employer - a large bank. While I was a bit uncertain at first whether I made the right choice, given that Colin is so young and seemingly inexperienced, I was quickly convinced that he would be able to handle my case. I was impressed with the amount of time Colin spent explaining my legal situation during the very first meeting without charging me a penny. His hourly rate is very reasonable. He quickly got the ball rolling drafting the necessary documents and all negotiations were conducted professionally and patiently. Colin knows the law very well, understands the process of negotiating with a large company. He was able to significantly improve the terms of my severance package that took into account such important nuances as pension, bonus and benefits. I definitely recommend this lawyer for employment related matters such as wrongful dismissal and severance negotiations. Keep up the good work Colin"
