What does the process look like to engage a lawyer?

We have an intake person that will call you to get to know more about your needs. You will then be directed to the lawyer at the firm that would be the best fit and they will get back to you to ensure we can help. Once you decide to engage us, a retainer letter will be sent that can be paid by e-transfer or credit card.

How do I choose the right lawyer for my case?

Choosing the right lawyer starts with finding someone who has specific experience in the area of law your case involves. It’s also important to look for clear communication, a strategy that aligns with your goals, and a lawyer you feel comfortable working with. A brief consultation can help you assess whether they’re the right fit.

Can your firm represent clients outside of Edmonton?

Yes, our firm can represent clients outside of Edmonton in many situations, depending on the nature and location of the legal matter. Some cases can be handled remotely or across jurisdictions, while others may require local counsel or specific licensing. Contact us with your location and case details, and we can confirm what representation options are available.

What should I bring to my first meeting?

For your first meeting, bring any documents related to your case — such as contracts, correspondence, court papers, or notes outlining key events. It’s also helpful to prepare a list of questions and a clear summary of your goals. This ensures the lawyer can quickly understand your situation and provide meaningful guidance.
