a year agoStephen did some urgent corporate work for my company (license agreements for renewable energy technology) when our corporate counsel was overloaded. He was out of his normal area, but I have still rated him a 5 on Knowledge because he researched the subject so quickly and thoroughly that he actually became MORE knowledgeable on the subject than our in-house guy in just a few days. Awesome! I have never seen a lawyer so dedicated to doing not just a great job but an outstanding one. Thanks Steve - I would hire you again in a heartbeat. Tony H.

7 years agoStephen and his team especially Melissa and Eyrene have been working on my case more than four years. They were on my case since the beginning providing great advice and support and representing me well at the court. Although I live and work overseas and with the time difference, I always felt they treated my case as I was living in Canada. This is important as you are not the on the ground and you never know how your lawyer will treat when you are overseas. Thank you Stephen, Melissa and Eyrene for your service and support. Highly recommended. Youssef Abboud

7 years agoTwo years ago, I had the good fortune to be referred to Stephen Durbin. He was the fourth lawyer to represent me in an estate matter that had been the subject of continuous litigation for over 10 years. Despite the large sums of money that had previously been spent on legal fees, and the time elapsed, I had made little progress in resolving the matter. Within months of being retained, Mr. Durbin was able to negotiate an acceptable settlement to end what had been an intractable legal problem. Sadly, the end of one legal problem was followed by another, as my wife of 22 years began divorce proceedings. I again retained Mr. Durbin to represent me in that matter. On two occasions Mr. Durbin was obliged to represent me in Court on Motions relating to my children. He was successful in both and I was awarded legal costs. Mr. Durbin’s incisiveness, sensibility, and practical understanding of the likely legal outcome, and his ability to avoid the emotional element that is inherent in family law, was key in negotiating a final settlement in my favor.

7 years ago“I just wanted to take a moment on behalf of my family and myself to thank you very much for all the hard work and time you have put into this custody trial. I was very impressed with how you went about things, the time you took to do the research, and most of all how you were able to show A’s (the opposing party’s) true colors. I truly appreciate the job you have done. I know your closing argument will be very powerful. It is incredible to see the relief my son has, since the trial is over” Best Regards, K
