"Even in a one-hour meeting, they gave me more clarity than I'd gotten elsewhere over a much longer stretch. Nothing felt buried in legal jargon. By the end I felt confident about where things stood and what to do next."

recently had a consultation with Lawyer McKenzie at Achkar Law regarding HR matters and management representation. From the beginning, the experience was exceptional. Lawyer McKenzie took the time to listen carefully, gave me ample opportunity to explain my concerns, and provided clear, professional guidance throughout the discussion. I felt respected, understood, and supported at every stage. The team demonstrated a high level of professionalism, knowledge, integrity, and dedication to their clients. Their attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome gave me confidence in their services. I highly recommend Achkar Law and Lawyer McKenzie to anyone seeking legal assistance with employment, HR, or workplace related matters. Thank you for your outstanding service and professionalism.

Response from the owner:Hi Kana, thank you so much for this incredibly kind and detailed review! MacKenzie will be truly glad to hear this. He takes great care to listen first and make sure clients feel heard before diving into strategy, so it means a lot to know that came through for you. HR and management matters can be complex, and our team works hard to bring clarity, professionalism, and real dedication to every file. We're grateful for your trust and your recommendation, and we're here whenever you need us again.

From the first consultation with the Paralegal, MacKenzie, to the follow up staff and now with Babak Sankari, I feel I have the right firm to guide me through this stressful time in my life as a former employee. They really have your back, very supportive, friendly, professional and thorough. I am only in the beginning stages of negotiation and I already feel so much relief and confidence that I chose the right law firm! Regardless of how this plays out, just knowing Babak is available for a chat or email is amazing with short notice. Thank you for listening and respect. I highly recommend Achkar Law and their incredible team!

Response from the owner:Hello Marlyse, thank you so much for these kind words! It's wonderful to hear that our intake team set the right tone from the very first call, and that MacKenzie and Babak have continued to give you the support and reassurance you deserve during such a stressful chapter. Knowing your legal team has your back makes all the difference, and we're so glad you feel that with us. Thank you for trusting our Toronto office, and we're with you for whatever comes next.

I am incredibly grateful to Achkar Law for helping me navigate a very challenging professional situation. From my very first meeting, I knew I was in expert hands. My senior litigation lawyer, Gareth D'Costa, was absolutely phenomenal. He took the time to truly listen to my goals and looked out for my family’s best interests every step of the way. Gareth is a brilliant strategist—he cut through the noise, kept me calm under pressure, and negotiated a fantastic final outcome that gave me complete peace of mind. He is sharp, highly responsive, and deeply empathetic. I also want to thank Jason Jagpal and the rest of the team for keeping the administrative side of things moving so seamlessly behind the scenes. They were transparent about every detail and handled my file with the utmost integrity. If you need a legal team that will genuinely fight for you while treating you like a human being, I highly recommend reaching out to Gareth at Achkar Law. Thank you all for the outstanding support!

Response from the owner:Hi Yusri, wow, thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We're truly grateful. Gareth will be so glad to hear this. He genuinely pours himself into every file, and knowing that his strategy, responsiveness, and care helped bring you and your family peace of mind means the world. Jason and the rest of the team will also be thrilled to know their work behind the scenes made a difference. We always strive to treat our clients like real people going through real moments, not just files on a desk, so reviews like yours remind us why we do what we do. Wishing you and your family all the very best ahead, and thank you again for trusting Achkar Law.

Outstanding. I was referred to Jason Jagpal for assistance in negotiating my severance. From initial contact with the para that answered the main office line, through to final discussions with Jason, the entire experience was flawless: highly organized, effective, to the point. Jason was fully briefed before starting our meeting and provided clear unambiguous guidance. His recommendation was centered around what was the best approach for me, not for him. In the end, with his advice helped me get to a completely satisfactory agreement with a minimum of cost, time and energy. Five stars for sure.

Response from the owner:Hello Steven, We are glad to hear the process felt organized and straightforward from start to finish. Taking a clear, practical approach to severance negotiations can make a big difference in both outcome and efficiency. We’ll make sure Jason sees this. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

I can't recommend Chris and his team enough. From the very beginning they were incredibly supportive, professional, and reassuring during what was a very uncertain and stressful time.

Thanks to their expertise and guidance, I was able to achieve a positive outcome, which I’m truly grateful for. If you have ever been let go from a job, I strongly encourage you to speak with an employment lawyer, it makes a huge difference in understanding your options and advocating for yourself. I would recommend Chris and his team over and over again to anyone in need of trusted legal support.
