I always strive to achieve timely, cost effective solutions to legal issues. I regularly engage in alternative dispute resolution before resorting to litigation in an effort to get matters resolved. I recently managed to settle a wrongful dismissal file in less than a month as a result of engaging in thorough negotiations with my client's former employer. At the end of the day, my client received her termination/severance much faster than resorting to the courts and engaging in an adversarial process. My client ended up with more money in her pocket in a much shorter period of time.

I maintain my practice by being a zealous advocate for my clients. I am passionate about the clients I choose to work with and am deeply invested in resolving their legal issues.

Clients should seek a lawyer whos practice is aligned with their goals. They should consider a lawyer that will canvas all possible avenues of resolution for their matter. Look for a lawyer that understands the local legal landscape and has experience in the that particular practice area.

Local knowledge is essential to success. Knowing the members of the local bar goes a long way towards resolution as does understanding local practice directions which vary from region to region. The rules can vary greatly from province to province, and municipality to municipality, so hiring local counsel that has in-depth knowledge is essential!

I provide free 30 minute phone consultations for all of my potential clients. This purpose of this consultation is not to provide legal advice, but instead, to get a better understanding of your legal issue and advise if I would be able to assist you in your matter. The consult is also an opportunity for you to ask me any questions about my practice and ascertain if I am the lawyer you would like representing you.

The information required for a consult varies depending on the type of matter. But generally, an overview of the facts is all that is required to help understand what your potential claims are. The Law Society of Ontario also requires that client identification be obtain to ensure that there is no conflict of interest - to that end, some personal information is required prior to the consult.

I am a sole practitioner with a strong history of results-oriented strategies. I have come to the legal world from a somewhat atypical background which includes graduate studies in mathematics and statistics. My extensive education in scientific process and rigourous analysis, coupled with the critical thinking skills of my law degree, allow me to provide a unique perspective on legal issues.

Achieving results for clients. The vast majority of my practice is working with plaintiffs who have suffered damages at the hands of others. Successfully seeking compensation for these individuals and corporations is why I do what I do.

I am, unfortunately, an diehard Leafs fan. When the trials and tribulations of a legal career are not enough, I know I can always count on the Leafs for that extra push! I am also an avid scotch and whisky collector.

I many occasions, I have engaged in pro-bono legal services for various organizations within the Durham region. If you are operating a not-for-profit in the Durham region, please feel free to reach out to me and I would be happy to discuss your legal issue with you.
