Paterson Law Office

Shaylan will give you a hard time in writing if you so much as question the scope of the retainer fee. The divorce eventually went through but it was a journey made worse by this lawyer. I recommend someone else in this firm or to skip them all together to be safe.

They're really good at sending bills for $400/hr, not so good at doing the actual work they bill for. Almost any other option in Brandon will serve you better.

If you’re male, do yourself a favour and run don’t walk away from Jodi Wyman. She is known to be a staunch feminist and a women’s rights activist in Brandon. She lost every aspect of my case in spectacular fashion despite ample evidence on my side of the case. I’m not sure that it wasn’t deliberate. Do your research!

I was incredibly fortunate to be directed to Jodi in the middle of a bad divorce, when my previous lawyer could not have been less adequate. Jodi was fantastic through the entire experience. Moreover, her assistant Connie was always available to help, and went above and beyond. Example: two years after my account was finalized I needed another copy of my certificate of divorce. Unable to get through to the court I placed a call to Connie. She had everything sorted out in minutes. You can’t ask for much better than that.

Hired them and in less than a year I had 3 different lawyers ... I guess they figured my case wasn't important enough. They finally gave me a law student not even a real lawyer in the end. That's when I went and got a different lawyer that has done more for me in 2 phone call appointments than they did in 8 months ... wouldn't recommend!
