My PRRA situation was extremely delicate, and I needed a law firm I could truly depend on. Their videos gave me clarity and hope, so I decided to reach out. That decision changed everything for me. From the first consultation, I could tell they were different. They didn't just give me generic advice -- they took the time to understand my unique circumstances and laid out a clear plan tailored to my case. The level of detail and care they put into preparing my application was unmatched. They anticipated potential challenges, addressed them head-on, and made sure nothing was left to chance. Communication was another area where they truly added value. Every question I had -- no matter how small -- was answered promptly and clearly. I never felt left in the dark. They were transparent, supportive, and always professional, which gave me confidence throughout the entire process. Thanks to their expertise and commitment, my PRRA application was successful. But beyond the legal outcome, what stood out most to me was how much they cared. They treated my case as if it were their own, and that level of dedication made all the difference. Olalere Law Office is more than just a law firm -- they are a team of advocates who combine legal excellence with genuine compassion. If you're looking for immigration lawyers who will fight for you, guide you with honesty, and give you the best chance at success, I cannot recommend them highly enough

I used Richard for my divorce, which was unnecessarily long and drawn out. He tried very very had…read moreto keep the case out of court. He also consulted with collogues to create best arguments. Ultimately, my former husband wanted to go to court, so I was dragged along for the ride. Despite three previous judges assuring me I would win, I ultimately lost (hence Richard trying so hard to keep this from court). Richard reduced his fees and only charged me costs, he made $0 on this. He was honest, caring and kept a sense of humour that was so helpful. He is also a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend him as well as his son Josh who I have also worked with.

With absolute competence, incredible skill, and deep legal knowledge, he not only saved my life but successfully restored my reputation and dignity in the eyes of my friends, family, and community. There are truly not enough words to properly thank him for what he has done for me.

Do not hire Richard ADDELMAN or anybody from his firm, you're better off representing yourself!…read moreREAD TO THE END! Dear reviewers, if you are in need of a lawyer or any sort of legal advice do not waste a dime on Richard Addelman. Since he is unable to remember my name when I call or remember my file when we have sit down meetings, I am happy to write this review for all to read and for him to remember. First off, Richard did not get the result he sold me on from the day we met. Since I am somewhat responsible for the end result, this review is not based on the courts decision, it is here to help you understand his character and hopefully help you avoid making the same mistake I did. Throughout the last year Richard and I had many meetings. Richard sold me on his way of getting the result I wanted, by using his techniques and contacts. Our meetings (5) were very repetitive and Richard would constantly ask me the same questions over and over. I assumed he wanted to make sure my end of the story remained the same however I know now he just didn't remember the reason I was sitting in front of him in his office. And of course these repetitive meetings were another way of collecting more payments from me. Not only did he sell me, he texted my friend saying he felt he would get the result I wanted in my case (proof I have, by screenshot of their conversation). I should also mention that I went to meetings with a friend/witness as I started to feel weary of his methods and repetitive questions. My witness would gladly confirm my story and his manipulation. After a year long wait, the trial date was finally fixed. As I was nervous and unfamiliar with what to expect, Richard in front of his staff promised me he would sit with me over the weekend and explain the procedures. His admin wanted to book the appointment in his schedule however he dismissed it. Surprisingly Richard must of forgotten our conversation as he never called or returned any of my calls that weekend. As I was still waiting for details as he promised, Richard even failed to provide me with the time to appear in court for my trial. As nervous as I could be, I called his office 4 times the day before my trial only to be told he would get back to me asap. On the 4th call, I finally got a hold of him at 5pm. Finally after a year long review of my file, on the day of the trial he told me he had NO DEFENCE... And my best option was to plead guilty. (This needs to be repeated again) After a year long review of my file and many payments and many meetings later, he told me in from of my witness he had NO DEFENCE... 30 minutes before my trial.... As I plead guilty with his guidance in a Quebec Court, Richard forgot I am a Ontario resident. Something I mentioned to him many times in many meetings. In front of my witness he gave me false information about my guilty plee. Richard told me if I plead guilty the Crown would grant me condions as they did. However Richard failed to mention Ontario has its own rulings and does not consider a condition from Quebec. (Something a good experienced lawyer should already know). Not only did he provide me with misguided advice, Richard knew I am a contractor and my busiest season is in the summer. Of course Richard must of forgotten that, and pushed my trial date just before the summer. Unabling me to work on my busy season. Surely if Richard had my best interest in mind he would have had me plead guilty during the winter months and by then my condition would have passed just in time for work in the summer. As I mentioned before this review is based not on the courts decision, but on Richards character and way of manipulating his clients with false information and neglect. It can be clearly seen that his motivation is not representing his clients best interests but purely a financial gain. My advice to all who read this review, DO NOT HIRE RICHARD ADDLEMENT! Richard has either lost his motivation and is looking for a easy pay day or simply forgotten he is a lawyer. Let's hope you remember this Richard. Nick

We hired Elizabeth Bratton from Nelligan Law to represent us in a dispute with Tarion and an…read moreinternational home builder. From the start, we were impressed by Nelligan's collaborative approach--Elizabeth was our main point of contact, and she had access to a knowledgeable team for support in areas like real estate law and research. Elizabeth is brilliant, strategic, and incredibly effective. She represented us in mediation and pre-LAT negotiations, ultimately securing what we felt was a satisfactory outcome. Beyond her legal expertise, her emotional intelligence stood out--she was empathetic, transparent, and always mindful of costs. We also had great experiences with Jake Ruddy and Natalie Lalonde. We wouldn't hesitate to work with Elizabeth again. Highly recommend!

My suggestion would be to flee this counselor with haste if you want a proper representation in the legal system. Claudia Ximena Bordes and her comments on how she views her clients and their creepy nature: "Wow. This is pretty intense. For the record, most of the lawyers I know (family bar, Ottawa) don't use their regular names on Facebook; it would be way too easy for our clients to track us down and start creeping us." The Facebook name that this was under is Jim Bordes. Steer clear of this attorney. She is clearly violating the very Rules of Professional Conduct regarding ethics and should be reviewed by the Law Society of Ottawa. .
