No, I know what you're thinking. 5 stars for a law firm? But lawyers are the worst! (No, no they're…read morenot. Graduate students are the worst: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXvv5sTqNa4) I was in this car accident thing last year - not my fault - and I had never been involved in a serious accident before - like, police report filed type of serious - and at this point is this still a sentence - or is there a limit to the number of dashes one can write in one sentence? Anyway, I had no idea what the process was, or what all of these papers were that I was supposed to sign, so I visited my brand new lawyer friend at McLennan Ross. Lawyers super duper intimidate me (maybe because I use words like "super duper" and they don't) but the woman I met with was fantastic. FANTASTIC. So clear, explained everything to me so thoroughly, and never made me feel like I was stupid. No question was off the table. She totally "got it" that I had never gone through something like this before, so of course I had no idea what was going on. Nicest, smartest, most awesome lawyer lady ever. (Does it sound like I have an intellectual crush here? Because I do.) If you ever need a lawyer, seriously, call these guys. Rockstars. That's what they are.

I have dealt with a few different lawyers here from the Edmonton office - Chris Lane (employment…read morelaw), James Lingwood (alcohol/drugs in the workplace), Vicki Giles (employment law). I have found them to be knowledgeable, thorough and reliable. The response times - especially from James - are actually very impressive when compared with other larger firms I've dealt with. Their charge-out rates are relatively higher than most - but you get what you pay for - and I'm okay with that trade-off. They also host an annual employment law update conference (spring of each year, I believe) which is a good overview/discussion of the latest trends in employment law.

One word sums up my experience: unprofessional. A small…read moremiscommunication happened, and instead of giving a basic chance to clarify, he shut down the conversation completely. No reply, no courtesy, not even the minimal respect people give strangers. For someone advertising themselves as a "professional," his attitude was shockingly rude, dismissive, and dripping with ego. If this is how he handles simple communication, I can't imagine trusting him with anything serious.

Very unprofessional for a lawyer to loose legal documents. Stay Away. Stay far away.
