The Truth About Canadian Immigration Legal Representation
Officially you don’t need a Canadian immigration lawyer to immigrate to Canada. But our firm, again and again, sees serious mistakes clients have made on their self-represented permanent or temporary residence applications to Canada, which resulted in those applications being rejected. We’re devoted to fixing those mistakes, and ensure mistakes never happen in the first place when clients retain us from the start of the immigration to Canada process.
There are no guarantees in the Canadian immigration process. Anyone who guarantees your acceptance is either lying to you or doesn’t have enough experience in the field. Likewise, anyone who promises you special connections within the Department of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada is lying to you.
But we promise that we’ll maximize your chances of immigration success, work relentlessly to solve challenges with your application and direct you through the speediest and most effective immigration application stream possible.
We understand that immigration is a huge step in your life. We know how frustrating delays in completing that step can be, and how devastating rejection can be. Welcoming some of the largest numbers of immigrants per capita in the world, Canada has a vast and, at times, mystifying immigration government bureaucracy.
It’s our job to demystify that system for you, so you can sleep better at night, confident that you’re doing all you can to arrive in Canada or aid the arrival of your employees or family members here.
Our managing lawyer served as legal counsel to both the Department of Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship Canada and the Canada Border Services Agency, and thus understands how internal government systems work (or don’t work), and where best to apply pressure to encourage those systems to work for you.
He’s also very experienced with court and tribunal appeals, and judicial reviews should your case require court or tribunal intervention. Collaborating with him are two additional lawyers focussing on business and individual/family immigration, respectively, plus a team of skilled support staff speaking four languages. The firm prides itself on its approachability, fee transparency and results.
