About the firm
Our mission is to provide innovative legal solutions, excellent representation, and a dedication to quality service with a personal touch. We work with you and build a plan to get the result you need.
Why we exist
Law can be intimidating. Most people who walk through our door are not having a good week, and they've usually been told several contradictory things by several confident people before they get here.
So we start by explaining, in plain language, what is actually true about your situation — what the law says, what it doesn't say, and what the realistic range of outcomes looks like. Then we agree on a plan and we work it as a team.
You will not be handed off. You will not be left wondering. And you will not be pushed toward an expensive process when a cheaper one would get you the same result.

What we believe
If you leave a meeting unsure what was decided, we did the meeting wrong. Legal jargon is for the filings, not for you.
Our job is to give you real options and honest odds. The choice about your family, your home or your money stays yours.
A settled agreement in six weeks beats a won motion in eighteen months. We'll say so even when the longer road pays us more.
Ten years representing children's interests. Years of fostering animals nobody else would take. It's the same instinct, applied in two directions.
The office
A historic building in downtown Guelph, a short walk from the courthouse — which is exactly where you want your lawyer's office to be when a matter does end up in court.
The office is downtown on Woolwich Street, a short walk from the courthouse. There is metered street parking on Woolwich Street and the Baker Street municipal lot is nearby.
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
