Lawyer.com Member Questionnaire

Please describe a case(s) in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
We helped a client who had not seen his children on a regular basis and who was paying child support and section 7 expenses above his ability. After a five-day trial we were able to get a set access schedule in place and child support and section 7 expenses at a rate that our client could afford.

How did you build a successful practice?
I built this practice from the ground up. I first started in my basement and now have an office space with 4 lawyers assisting me if advocating for our client and helping our client get the best outcome for their children.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
Knowing the local court systems are very important as the court procedures change from court to court. Also locating a lawyer that is in your area will make it easier for you communicate with your lawyer and make sure that if we need anything from you that you will be able to provide us with the information quickly.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
A Consultation is a private and confidential meeting between you and one of our lawyers or articling students over the phone. The meeting is mandatory for anyone looking to retain our firm. During this meeting, you can expect to get legal advice, information and answers to your specific situation. Our goal is to provide all the information you need to help make an informed decision regarding next steps.

What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
During a phone consultation, we need all the important details relevant to your matter so that we can make sure to provide you with the best and most accurate information possible. If you are not always up front with your lawyer then there is a chance that the information that we provide you is not relevant to your case or you may need to approach your case in a different manner.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
The most rewarding aspect of my job is helping the client receive the best outcome possible for their case. This may not always mean that we won, because unfortunately in Family Law there is no real winning party, but to see the smiles on my client's faces when they talk about their visits with their children is the best thing possible.

  I hired Deepa and her team to represent me for a five day family law trial and they were able to help me increase my access time with my children. Deepa and her staff are amazing they went above and beyond what most family law lawyers would do for their clients. I would recommend them to everyone who needs a divorce or family lawyer.
