Michael Connell at Siskinds made our commercial lease process seamless. He offered smart insights, identified potential risks, and even helped us save money. His efficiency and professionalism stood out, and we couldn’t be happier with his service. Highly recommended and will definitely turn to him again for future needs. - D.P.

I had a great experience with John Morrissey and his team at Siskinds. I was in a same sex common law relationship and required his help with a dependent support claim. John made my first time experience dealing with a lawyer an easy one. He was very knowledgeable and he and his law clerk Adam were always available to answer any questions or concerns I may have. I would highly recommend John and his entire team at Siskinds. - R.S.

Thank you very much for everything! I was lucky enough to have Andrea [Cooley] as my lawyer and witnessed her as the most able lawyer. Thank you very much for representing me and protecting my side! Thank you, Andrea, and your team, for your support!- R.K.
