Reviews for Borden Ladner Gervais LLP
Have you consulted or hired this firm?
Leave a review about your experience with this firm.Working with this lawyer was a very relief it was done very fast minimum cost and was honest. IT’s a n1 quality in a lawyer. I had a very bad experience with a very known lawyer firm in Laval and it’s was all about taking my money and telling lies to make me pay more and more and no result. I recommend this attorney cause he’s trustworthy and honest.
Excellent lawyer. Good a discerning facts and works toward a fair and just resolution. Responsive and dedicated to meeting client's needs. Found him intelligent and knowledgeable. Excellent communicator and listener. Distills information given into a concise and workable format. Excellent litigator with the potential to possibly be a judge one day.
Matthew is a results oriented, strategic thinker. He embraces the challenge of high stakes litigation. His professionalism and client oriented practice make the most stressful and complex situations seem manageable. With his ability to anticipate the opposing counsels moves and respect for the practice of law he achieved an excellent result for us in a potentially explosive situation. Not only is he an excellent litigator he is a straight shooter and lays the facts out for his clients in a manner that makes it comprehensible.
Matthew has worked for my companies as a trial lawyer and appellate lawyer. He has a great demeanor that instils comfort and confidence. He is meticulous in his approach to litigation, and he is able to decipher complex matters and make them easy for clients and judges to understand. He is also cost effective and result oriented.
Matthew is one of the best and most effective I have ever engaged. His strategic insight into both substantive legal issues and the creation of an effective litigation plan is excellent. He is agile at refining and sharpening his approach as a case unfolds from research to litigation. He has a formidable work ethic and is relentless in his commitment to his client’s interests. And in the heat of litigation or mediation, he is exceptionally articulate, persuasive and effective.
It's my privilege to recommend Matthew Swanson, an excellent litigation lawyer. Matthew is an extremely thorough professional who always goes above and beyond for his client's best interests. When dealing with tough litigation, Matthew is my first call. He's never afraid to challenge on hard cases or arguments. It’s excellence, not just effort, that I require, and Matthew is my go-to. Matthew has and always will be a key part of our business and success.
Leanne Cherry prepared my parents Personal Directive and Enduring Power of Attorney. There were a number of occasions during the following years where we ran into problems with Administrators in the Health Care System. Leanne was an excellent resource, incredibility supportive and an outstanding listener. Her professionalism and empathy eases any worries or concerns a family may have. I continue to recommend Leanne to everyone I know.
Exceptionally gifted lawyer and advisor.
It was a pleasure to work with Jeremy Bolger. He was always prepared, well organized, and his interpersonal skills are excellent. I was very impressed with the manner in which our case was presented - forceful when necessary but otherwise matter of fact statements. His approach was well received by the arbitration judge. He did an exceptional job for us.
