Hired Law Firm

I went with this law firm for a minor assault and was assigned to Jade Roberts. She won the case for me long story short and I highly recommend her. I was facing a criminal record with two years probation so I had to take it to trial , I received legal aid. And the matter was resolved. I ended up receiving a nine month peace bond which is fair, so I avoided a criminal record conviction meaning it won't show up if I want to travel or I am looking for employment. And I don't think I would achieved these results if I represented myself. I still would recommend Jade Roberts even if she didn't win the case, but my case was a very particular non serious offense but it was one of those assault charges that had to be charged because UNINTENTIONAL contact was made by me, but she successfully proved beyond reasonable doubt it was not intentional. So do yourself a favor give Jade Roberts a shot if you need some legal help. I'd go with her again in a heart beat. Thanks Jade!

Such a phenomenal firm to work with, they always exceed expectations, and they represent what Toronto has to offer with respect to outstanding, 5-star legal professionals. I would highly recommend this firm and, in particular, attorney Melody Izadi - a brilliant legal mind who possesses the kind of out-of-the-box thinking style that other attorneys unfortunately lack. Top notch!

I don't think there is anyone better to represent you than Matthew Friedberg. We have had other lawyers who paled in comparison to Matthew and his team. Matthew's knowledge, passion, and dedication are second to none.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
