The email form was right off their website. What did I hear back? Crickets... nothing. Why encourage people to send an email when there is not going to be a response??

These lawyers may be the best in town but it is not worth much if you cannot get ahold of them.

Disclaimer: Everything said in this post is my own personal opinion and cannot be relied on as…read morefact. I can't be happier that my spouse chose Resolve Legal Group to represent her in our divorce because her case was idiotic and she lost. She spent about $20,000 on a parenting rights/home possession case after filing an emergency application in Family Court. A 1st year lawyer was assigned to keep costs down and sat on the case for ~6 months. Then Resolve assigned an "experienced" lawyer (didn't have 3 years' experience from what I could determine) at a much higher cost. The case kept going to Morning Chambers and was delayed partly because of his ambush techniques and partly because of my ex-wife's affidavits. Her lawyer communicated late Fridays. Then he submitted an affidavit the day before court after getting a fiat to allow him to do so in Morning Chambers. The case was postponed again because my lawyer didn't have a chance to read it, but it was another $3k in my ex-wife's lawyer's pocket right? (I believe that he charged around $3k for a court appearance.) So every delay was 'ching ching' in his pocket. While sitting on the bench waiting, he appeared to be working on other cases on his laptop thus was he double billing? Her affidavits were full of hearsay and contained accusations that had nothing to do with parenting. I can't believe the Resolve lawyer did not advise her that hearsay was not evidence. Word to the wise, stay on topic. She was trying to assassinate my character, but emails to herself describing the names I called her during arguments are hearsay and not evidence. Note to self, if there is no witness you "can" devote a paragraph to hearsay but do not inundate your affidavit with pages of emails or notes in a diary as it is not evidence (without a witness). This kind of hearsay creates an impression with the judge that there is extreme turmoil that harms the child. But the judge will not assign blame, one reason is because people usually do not go around swearing at their spouses without being provoked. Another accusation involved 'disappearing' money without evidence. The case is about parenting and possession of home! If money disappeared she should have filed a criminal case. It won't be solved in Family Court. Judges in Alberta are known to be the worst in Canada. The male judges, 9 times out of 10 in my opinion are the biggest self-important egotistical a-holes I have ever seen and they do not follow the law. They bark. They are as rude as possible and many times don't hear arguments. In 2017, Robin Camp, an Alberta Federal judge advised a rape victim on the witness stand that if she did not wish to be raped she should have kept her knees together. That's the Alberta legal system in a nutshell. Worst of all, these Alberta judges give 'interim' orders which make no sense and infringe on your rights. By "nature" they are deemed 'imperfect'. So you cannot appeal these orders even if they are illegal by taking away all of your legal and Charter rights. You can however go to court to 'change' them. I did not have a chance to as my case was over the day a female judge took over. In Morning Chambers there was a different judge every time; bizarre. The female judge, unlike the males, was not rude at all and sympathetic. She gave me shit, which I deserved, so she did not pick sides. She was no-nonsense, only valued real evidence, however, she did comment on the hearsay evidence and how it affected the child. She affirmed that the child is the most important factor in her decision. The Legal Aid lawyer assigned to the child reported that the child wanted to stay with his father. This is critical even if your kid is under 14. Kid's views matter. I provided real evidence as to how I was involved in the child's education and health. I had emails to his school and their responses, and I arranged and took the child to every medical or psychological appointment. I coached his soccer team etc. That evidence and the child's statement won the case. Note, deny every hearsay accusation made against you. No explanation, just say that "it is my belief that these accusations are false". It is up to the accuser to prove them. Email 'signatures' from Resolve Legal show Consumer Choice Awards. In today's world, a PR firm can be hired to game any online rating system. Their website reviews read as if a lawyer wrote them. Look to various chat groups about lawyers and you will read the truth. Resolve Legal Group supplied a lawyer to my ex who was so inept it is my belief he helped win me the case; charged double what my ex was told. According to her, he said I would pay for his fees which doesn't happen when you lose a case. Ex-wife is in shock, has to move, is out $20k. It is my belief Resolve took a brain-injured woman on disability to the cleaners without a second thought. Took a chunk of her life savings. She'll never get it back. I guess ethics and morality is an option. I do not recommend Resolve Legal Group.

Wow - how unprofessional! I was looking for a law firm for representation for a very traumatic…read moresituation that occurred when I was a child and was, within 24 hours, contacted by Greg Rodin. He sent a short mail saying 'Give me a call to discuss your situation'. I replied right away saying that 2pm would work for me (it was 930 am). Within 20 minutes he phoned me and said that that time didn't work for him and that if I wanted time today we had to talk now. Unprepared to discuss such a sensitive situation I began to tell him my trauma. He seemed indifferent to my story and then cut me off with 'well what are your damages'. I began to list my damages and within two minutes he had heard enough. He said 'My lawyers are very busy and while you may have a case you will not find representation here. You need a law firm who is more THIRSTY for cases like this. Maybe try for someone who's younger.' (Thirsty was his exact words!) How appalling - Forcing me to recollect a very traumatic situation after I told him a different time would work as if his time was worth more than mine! Cutting me off during my story, going to 'what are your damages' (to see if it was financially worth his time), and then coldly dismissing my claim as something his law firm isn't thirsty enough to do??!! Well Rodin, if you wish to make your law practice based on low hanging fruit and stuff that only makes you money, go ahead. Perhaps you should stop practicing personal injury because all you seem to care about is how much is in your coffers. AVOID AT ALL COST!!!!!!!

Mark Lawson Is my Hero…read more I was in an incredibly stressful situation for 5 months before I emailed Mark for the first time. I was in an incident involving a van and my bicycle where I would not admit liability for what the mans insurance company was demanding I pay, over $3000 dollars for damage to a van. which they promptly sent to collections, who in turn threatened to ruin my credit (I wont even go in to how outrageous this situation was for me). Before I contacted Mark I had messaged at least 11 different law offices, my insurance company, and other lawyers. Not one would help me, I imagine they can't leverage my situation to make it worth there time (they couldn't make money off my situation). Bicycles do not require insurance and I was not injured nor was my bicycle damaged at all (I still cant understand how his van was demolished by a BICYCLE that sustained no damage, let alone for 1/3rd the price of his entire vehicle.) Point is I was sick with stress it was affecting every relationship in my life, I have enough problems, this year has been awful. I could cope with everything else in my life fine but this situation really affected my mental health, I had no idea what to do or what options I had. The worst part in my mind was that I felt like this was some kind of extortion and I mean that because I was NEVER given a chance to tell my version of the events. AllState just demanded money from me using scare tactics by there collections agency 9Consolidated Recovery Systems) who lied to a point blank question "Can you ruin my credit if I don't know how to deal with this situation right away?" they said "Yes", I recorded that conversation by the way because yea they suck and totally lied. Mark was a busy guy but he listened to my story and responded right away to every one of my emails with solid advice every time. Each time giving me a new avenue to explore while I was trying to find a way to defend myself from this company. I was still stressed but over the course of 2 weeks and only a few emails to Mark about my situation and how things where progressing the last piece of advice that fixed it all was to call Equifax directly and ask them about the situation. I never thought of that, and I'm glad he said that because when I did Equifax told me almost word for word everything Mark had been telling me. Basically "Don't worry they cant ruin your credit until you have had a chance to say your side of the story, and to do that they will have to bring you to court so if they do you should be ready to defend yourself". That was all I needed to hear because all I wanted was to be able to say my side of the story, so id love to go to court if they decided to go that rout. That night I couldn't believe all the stress was going away, since then it was like a knot in my brain was released, I was able to have fun with my family again, I was a totally different person after that and it felt so good to be myself again. Mark didn't have to do what he did, he took the time to listen and talk to me when no one else would give me the time of day. He had nothing really to gain from helping me but he did anyway and for that he is truly my hero. The best I can do to repay him is post this review for him and when I find work again I'm going to get him something to say thank you, a fancy bottle of wine or something. I will never forget what he did. I'm not religious but I know the story of "The Good Samaritan" from the Bible. Mark Lawson you are the good Samaritan, Thank you. Sincerely, Gabriel Binette P.S. He said to contact him if they decide to take it to court. If that happens then I will.

Seth Wheeldon initially agreed to help me with a police brutality/injury case, but after a full…read moreyear of communication, with no explanation, he said "you sound lovely, but I can't help you." Now I'm left desperately searching for representation. Throughout that year, I was under the impression that Seth was taking my situation seriously. We spoke several times by phone whenever I had questions, and he told me that while a conviction is helpful, it was not required for civil action. One year after my first contact, I left a message with an update. A week later he called me back and said, "you sound lovely, but I can't help you." I was not given an explanation, despite previously being told my case was viable. Had he declined at the beginning, I would have had far more time to find another lawyer. It is extremely difficult to find anyone willing to take on cases involving police misconduct, and the wasted year has made this even harder. I originally removed my first review because I felt embarrassed mentioning that I am a victim of police brutality. However, I now believe it is important for others to know my experience before choosing this firm. After I left the original review, Raj Bhogal contacted me. At first he spoke in a way that made me feel heard and important, then told me that although he would never tell me to remove my review, he was worried that my review might prevent someone from finding a law firm that "truly cares." This comment also made me feel pressured to delete it. Raj said the trial date was too close to the deadline to sue. I later learned that lawyers can still file and get extensions for such civil cases. I did not know I needed a retainer, and I was never told this during the year of communication. I have emails and phone records documenting our communications. In the end, I was left without support and a clear reason. I hope my experience helps others make an informed decision.
