Kalman Samuels et Associés

I am so grateful to work as an internship at this law firm. It was really for short term, but this work experience is definitely precious for me. All of them are very professional and responsible. I've learned so many things there and I'm sure it helps me develop my future career.

It was a nightmare. They kept changing the attorney, costing me extra every time to review my file. The only good attorney was Justine and she quit during she was working on my case. I had to fire them and hire another firme become they kept charging me ridiculous high fee and very poor performance. If you want your case to stall many years and pay thousands of dollars, this is the firm for you. Very disappointed and frustrated.

I initially reviewed this firm as five stars because after my first consultation, I was under the impression that I was in good hands, and that I could depend on Mr. Romano. I followed his advice and prepared what was required for my case. When I finally assembled everything, I booked an appointment for a Tuesday with about a week's delay. On Tuesday morning I received a call notifying me that it was cancelled, and another appointment was arranged for the upcoming Thursday. When I arrived for my appointment, the receptionist went to supposedly tell Mr. Romano that I was present. After a while she came back to to tell me that he was sick? It is amazing that it took her so long to only tell me that he was unavailable? Didn't she know that Mr. Romano wasn't there when I first came in? I asked why I wasn't made aware and not to come when another secretary rudely told me told me that she sent me an e-mail regarding the supposed cancellation. I told her I checked my e-mails and there was no notification of a cancellation to which she responded that it went into my spam e-mails. When I arrived home, I checked my spam and there was no e-mail? What a disappointment, I never expected that!!

I am extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with the Kalman Samuels law firm on a contractual basis for many years in Family Law, Personal Rights, and Personal Injury files. As such, I was able to experience first-hand the personalized and detailed representation they provide to each and every client. The firm's dedicated attorneys and the support staff work as a team, always at the ready to support each other in the pursuit of the best solution for their clients and under the meticulous guidance and profound legal expertise of the firm's managing director, Dan Romano. Even when not working as the firm's agent, I have often, in my own practice, turned to the Kalman Samuels attorneys, for consultation on complex legal issues and their responses are thorough, strategic and supportive. The firm is constantly evolving, adapting to new realities within the legal landscape while remaining true to their principles of personalized, supportive, thorough representation. Known for their leadership and personalized representation, the Kalman Samuels attorneys work efficiently so as to reduce necessary costs to their clients. I could not recommend them highly enough.

A friend recommended me this firm and I am very happy they took my case. Mr. Daniel Romano represented my interests and I was very happy with the service they provided. I was impressed how well they communicate both orally and written. After having worked my case for a certain time to get familiar with details and investigate the potential solutions I knew I was in good hands! He provided me solutions and things I should be aware of that my previous lawyer didn't even mention. I am very happy Kalman Samuels and Associates represented my case. I am very happy with the result. The team I have met impressed me how dedicated and hard working they all are. I agree with previous comment that sometimes it might be hard to reach Mr Romano directly and you end up leaving a message but he returns calls within very short time. I definitely recommend this Law firm.

I had an excellent experience with this firm. The attorneys and staff are very knowledgeable, kind, compassionate and truly look out for their clients best interests. I would without hesitation recommend this hard-working and talented team to friends and family for their legal needs.

I have to write something, and I’m doing this mainly as a thank you. We are three years into this divorce already. This is a very contentious case involving a lot of money and spanning three countries and touching on every aspect of separation of assets, custody, visitation, child support, spousal support, family patrimony, and a lot of diverse assets and we cannot agree on anything at all. I started out with another attorney who was very good, but as things got more intense, she felt it was better to recommend this to true specialists and sent to my current firm. I liked her and did not really want to switch, but she insisted. My new firm, this one, Kalman Samuels, is smaller but charged the same amounts; Within just a few weeks I understood why my former attorney recommended that I switch. These guys are really specialized & know what they are doing and are very good at it. Each and every time my ex wife drags us back to court, we win, without exception. Then, just when her lawyers have a better understanding of what is really going on and begin to cooperate and tell her to stop acting crazy, she gets angry, changes lawyers, changes tactics, does something stupid forcing us to go to court and we win again, then we negotiate hard with the new lawyer who has a better understanding of what he is dealing with, my wife fires the lawyer, hires another one and repeats the cycle, over and over again. She is now on her sixth lawyer and my attorneys worry that he might be on his way out too very soon. Just last month we received a procedure with only two day’s notice. This is not legal! My attorneys really scrambled to respond. Rather than asking for a postponement, which they could have, they put all their energy into preparing and pleading a powerful response with only two days of preparation. They said it would be cheaper this way than going twice. Also, it would show how unreasonable she was. The opposing attorney must have been expecting a request for postponement because even though it was his own motion, he was caught surprised and ended up not being ready for court when my attorneys showed up ready to fight. Brilliant!!! We won again, 100%. They did well all the other times before, but this time I was especially impressed. The case was very well handled. Essentially, their complete victory saves me and my kids from major financial headaches and possibly a big change in lifestyle. This is why I’m posting this now. The last hearing cost me financially, again, but all the work they did will pay for itself in three month’s time because the judge rejected the crazy things she was asking for and simply did not believe all the retarded allegations she started making, suddenly and out of nowhere. If my attorneys read this, they will know who I am and which attorneys I am talking about. And that’s O.K., because they put a lot into this and I think they deserve a little bit more than just their fees. So here it is: “Thank you!”

I have done and am currently doing business with this firm and am very pleased with them. They have the nicest employees working there, an amazing team of dedicated secretaries who really look after you and who, from what I can understand help each other and work closely with the lawyers. I would recommend this firm to anybody who is looking for people to take their family cases.

I would like to thank Me Romano of Kalman Samuels Q.C. & Associates for his support during my difficult divorce. From the beginning, Me Romano explained to me the process and my rights and responsibilities very professionally, clearly, and patiently. In addition he followed up with me regularly to see how I was doing even though I could not be a client due to a conflict of interest. At first, I chose my legal counsel independently through another friend. When I needed additional help and a referral because my independently chosen lawyer made some major mistakes in my file, Me Romano again explained to me how the system works, what his opinion is about my position and referred me to a lawyer trained by his firm and under his supervision. Fortunately for me, my new lawyer was indeed very well trained, knowledgeable and immaculate in the preparation of my file which had been in a very sorry state upon arrival from the old lawyer’s office. I finally had a very fair outcome to my case--which was settled out of court avoiding a great deal of stress and anguish. I feel that without the help of Me Romano, I would have been at a loss and at the mercy of someone who did not know how to do their job. I am very grateful for Me Romano’s help and support.

Extremely Happy with my experience. I was assigned a Lawyer from the firm but received support and consultation from everyone who could contribute. My situation was a unique custody matter which required immediate action. On a Wednesday afternoon we got notice of an abrupt change, and we were in court Friday morning, better prepared than the other party. I dealt with the firm by phone and email which I was nervous about considering I was in another province, however they did an excellent job. I was given realistic expectations and advice which enabled me to make a sound decision and take the actions required to progress in my situation. I will continue to seek representation from the firm as I move forward.
