DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND HIRE HIM I cannot say enough good things about this firm, but I don’t want this to simply be a flowery review telling you how great they are — I need you to truly understand that you have found the right firm, STOP SEARCHING. If you were waiting on a sign from the universe, this is it. I feel guilty letting some of you know that Mr. Marcus Sixta exists since I know not everyone’s case can be accepted by him, but I feel a moral obligation to make you aware that representation like this exists —so that at least the people who are in as dire a situation as I was and who are meant to find him can find him. My divorce case was entering its 5th year, and had been successively fumbled by numerous lawyers before him. And yet even in the condition it was in, he was able to swoop in and course-correct so much of what was happening ––mistakes that were about to cost me my whole case. I cannot tell you the amount of times he and his team would spend their weekends labouring over documents, discoveries, affidavits ––whatever legal term, you name it, they were on it. I would get emails from them all weekend asking about this or that as they were actively working on the file. After a whole day or trial/mediation/arbitration – for which they are present and ready to go at 8am, and which doesn’t until almost 9pm – by early next morning their team has already drafted and sent another legal documentation to follow-up on the proceedings from the day before and already onto the next step. Mr. Sixta turns up the heat then persistently strikes while the iron is hot. He is always thinking of the next best step and always strategizing. The things he comes up with are brilliant, truly a thing to marvel at – you feel like you are watching a game of chess. They take their job not only seriously, but PERSONALLY. They have a heart after justice, and it shows ––and thank god they have the intellect to match. Ms. Daniella Marchand works alongside Mr. Sixta and under his mentorship. She is phenomenal. Daniela is methodical and detail-oriented —she does not miss a thing. More notable than this, which is hard to beat, is her heart. She is a pleasure to know and reinforces your faith in humanity. If you cannot have Mr. Sixta directly represent you, it is better to get with those who work under his general leadership at the firm & where he is in-house, rather than not at all; however, he has the final say in whether your case is taken by the firm. You would be lucky to have Mr. Sixta and Ms. Marchand working on your case.
Looking for a Family Lawyer is inherently stressful. Let me take away some of your stress by recommending in the strongest possible terms, the amazing Sheri Ferguson. Right from the start, when I was still in shock following the sudden announcement from my ex-wife, Sheri demonstrated exceptional emotional intelligence. She moved me along with compliance to the required legal responses. At her recommendation, we proactively attempted to settle by making reasonable global offers. After two (ignored) attempts, we moved to Mediation. Despite our best efforts, my divorce moved into Arbitration. At every stage, Sheri has been excellent. She has been prompt with all time-sensitive matters. Her billings were clear and very accurate...if not somewhat lower than expected in terms of her billable time. Sheri found ways to keep costs lower without cutting corners. And going into a very stressful Arbitration session, she coached me up exactly how I needed to be coached, and it went as well as could possibly be expected. Somehow, through this entire process, Sheri has remained cheerful and upbeat, realistic, empathetic and very clear-headed. Simply put, I could not imagine having more competent, effective and personable legal counsel. She's an incredible advocate and professional. And yes, I am happy to sign my name to this and waive my right to privacy. ~ Andrew H. Ruhland
After haggling with my ex for more than three years over a separation agreement and failing to persuade her even to attend mediation, I approached Melissa Salfi at Crossroads for help. Since I live in BC and my ex had moved with our daughter from BC to Alberta, I needed lawyers I could easily access and who could bring an action in an Alberta court if necessary. Since Crossroads has offices and great lawyers in both BC and Alberta, they were the right fit for me. Melissa Salfi helped me in Vancouver and referred me to Camille Boyer, who is based in Calgary, when I needed to start a court action in Alberta. On my first meeting with Camille on Zoom, I found her to be clear-minded, sharp and receptive. She immediately gave me my legal options, all of which I found to be sound, and I had no problem making up my mind. After only a few days, she filed a Notice to Attend Docket Court in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta and we served it on my ex. Because of Camille's strategizing, the filing alone was enough to bring my ex back to the negotiating table and I had my previously intractable issues solved without going to court. I have nothing but praise for both lawyers I worked with at Crossroads.
My lawyer was Mat Wirove. Incredible lawyer to say the least. He listened to what I wanted and was realistic with what I would be able to get. He walked me through every step and ensured I was educated and informed the entire process. He made sure all the items I wanted were properly conveyed in the judicial world. Not only was he professional and incredible in his work, but he took the time to offer me resources in a personal manner beyond his role as my lawyer (recommendations on books to help with the personal and emotional aspect of co-parenting, being a single parent, calling after court dates to discuss the content of thr hearings and my feelings on it, etc). Even after no longer retaining his services, his assistant gave me information on court documents I lost during a move saving me from missing work to go to the courthouse and additional assistance with legal proceedings when an order needed to be amended. Overall, the best attributes of my experience with Mat Wirove was his professionalism, realistic and effective approach, his skills within his profession and genuine care for his client. I have recommended him to others.
You just happened to have stumbled upon the right lawyer for the job… now let’s just hope he accepts your case. Mr. Sixta and Ms. Marchand worked on my case, and they are both heavy hitters. It is a privilege seeing Mr. Sixta work in a hearing. He does a lot of preparation, yet intuitively navigates the line of questioning. He knows just when to go in a different direction and how to lead everyone to a central point. Most importantly he knows when to leave it *on that note* , to have his final point reverberate throughout the room and wait for it to burn into the foremost awareness of everyone present. I have witnessed him lead things to such a strong end that the lawyer on the side burst out crying outside the room when on break because she was so moved herself. She was supposed to come back in and question his witness but gave up that right as she couldn’t follow-up with anything. I don’t blame her, he is a tough act to follow. He follows low-blows from the other side with stern tact. I don’t think anything can sting worse than when someone can respectfully put you in your place. Law is an art and he is an artist.
I have no hesitation in recommending the team at Crossroads Law for any Family Law case. There is a reason why Marcus Sixta is rated as one of Calgary’s top Family Law lawyers. He certainly represented us well in our case, and that was clearly evident in court proceedings and at discovery. He is a strong advocate for doing what is in the best interest of the child and ensuring both parents have equal access to the child, especially when it is clearly best for the child. We avoided a costly trial when Marcus successfully brought both parties together to reach an agreement. Thank you Marcus for your professionalism, support and patience. We would also like to thank Mat Wirove for assisting. Having access to a team of lawyers is certainly a bonus. Last but not least is the amazing Amanda Bulk, their legal assistant who kept us all updated, organized, kept meticulous files, always professional and true a gem to work with. Crossroads law, in my opinion is a great law firm and I will recommend them to anyone who requires a lawyer in Alberta or British Columbia.
Marcus was my third lawyer in an extremely difficult drawn out divorce with an abusive narcissistic partner teamed with a highly unethical lawyer. Many errors had already been made that were to my detriment before Marcus and his team took my case. I believe my results would have been much better, the process shorter and less costly had Marcus been my lawyer from the beginning. He did his best in a broken system. He is very knowledgeable, personable and works extremely hard. I did find that he saw cost/benefit from a lawyer's lens rather than client's perspective (resources are not unlimited). I also believe he (like most lawyers/arbitrators) receive inadequate training and experience dealing with highly manipulative and frankly dishonest opposing teams. The tools in the legal system are limited. Marcus has stuck with my case which I believe has enhanced his professional skills. His team are very kind and empathetic. I would highly recommend CrossRoads Law!
When I explained to a friend that I was leaving my husband, she said “well if you need a good lawyer mine is amazing.” I have come to learn, after hiring Amanda Marsden, that her recommendation was truly an understatement. Ms Marsden was beyond amazing. She was understanding, and extremely kind. At times I was worried that she was ‘too nice.’ However, I was pleasantly surprised when she ‘flexed her muscles’ at the exact right time. I especially appreciated her willingness to answer all of my questions. With her by my side, I feel that we came to an effective separation agreement with relative ease. She was extraordinarily adept at navigating me through mediation. I will be forever grateful for her sage counsel, and would highly recommend her services.
Crossroads Law has provided unparalleled support throughout our family law engagement. The team delivered quality support and effective legal consultation that represented our child's best interest. We had tried a few lawyers before working with Marcus but we did not get anywhere with the process. Marcus is definitely our best lawyer. His legal expertise, compassion for families and children, and commanding voice that is respected and heard by the court and opposing counsel helped us achieve an agreement that was fair and benefited our child in a timely manner. We greatly appreciate all the work that Marcus and the Crossroad team have given our family.
I would definitely recommend Mat Wirove as a family lawyer. Not only is he knowledgeable and concise, he's also very dedicated and sincere. I hired Mat after my agreement was already signed but needing enforcing and wish I had hired him from the beginning. Once of the most compelling things about Mat was his dedication to get things done quickly. I also appreciated Mat's assistant, Katrina's dedication and attention to detail as well. They make an excellent team! Thank-you Crossroads Law for all you have done for me and my daughter. I would not hesitate to recommend you to others and also use you again in the future should the need arise.
Going to court and fighting to be with your family is one the most personal and difficult experiences you can go through. Not being familiar with how the courts work, how family law is written and applied can be overwhelming. Kristin McDonald helped me navigate all of it from start to finish. She explained everything to me, all possible outcomes, in all scenarios. She took the time to understand my personal situation and helped me chart a path forward. I truly cannot say enough to express how grateful I am that she was my lawyer. I would highly recommend her to anyone dealing with anything in the courts family related.
It is my pleasure to talk about Crossroads law and especially Camille Boyer my representation in my matter. After years of frustration with a difficult x partner, I finally decided my only option was a legal approach. In only a matter of a few short months I have gotten what I was seeking. This is absolutely only due to Crossroads law. Camille Boyer did an amazing job for me. She is knowledgeable, professional, easy to work with and most importantly to any client, gets results. I highly recommend both this firm and their staff. I couldn’t be happier!
David Kim has helped me navigate a very difficult time in my life which included a separation with kids involved. David has provided me with great advice and always takes the times to explain situations to me. I have never felt that David Kim doesn't have my best interest at heart. He has been open and honest regarding legal advise, always considered the most cost effective ways to proceed. I truly believe that David Kim has made this process easier for me and has represented me in a professional and honest way
I can't say enough about Crossroads Law, my counsel, Camille Boyer, and paralegal Debbie Overbury. I retained them to finally complete my protracted marriage property settlement.They have been extremely professional, while still being kind, compassionate, and patient. I highly recommend them and their unique system of mentorship which allows you the option to represent yourself with their guidance. I would absolutely go to Crossroads Law again for any of my legal needs. They are fantastic!
Camille Boyer was one of three lawyers I interviewed and she's the only one who provided follow up information after the initial consultation. For the last year and a half, Camille skillfully and patiently helped me navigate a difficult separation and divorce process. She was organized, flexible, responsive and always took the time to clearly answer my questions and explain options. I'm beyond grateful for Camille's guidance, advocacy and support and highly recommend her services.
Marcus Sixta is definitely one of the best lawyers out there and did a great job of standing up for me. I'm very satisfied and would totally recommend Crossroads Law. Marcus knows how to fight for his clients and get desirable results. His intelligence, bundled with strong knowledge of law and attention to detail eased the whole process. Definitely the lawyer you want in your corner while dealing with family law matters. I would not hesitate to retain him again.
Marcus Sixta provided me with excellent representation and advice in the complicated divorce file that he inherited. While a strong litigator, Marcus is an advocate for negotiation and compromise and was able to significantly contribute to the positive resolution of my file. I would highly recommend Marcus and his team - who were prompt, professional, courteous and effective, to anyone looking for assistance with their family law situation.
Amanda Marsden was my saviour! She helped me through a very emotional custody case, not only was she very logical and clear about what we needed to do, and sometimes gave time the hard truths I needed to learn to accept, she was supportive and empathetic every single step of the way. In the end, things resolved positively and life can go on peacefully now. I couldn’t have done it without her. I recommend Amanda 10/10. She’s a gem! -C
This was my first experience needing a lawyer. I can't imagine trying to navigate the murky waters of the legal system without the help of Mathew Wirove and the fabulous Katrina Juke. They really did take a load off my mind. It was one of the largest expenses I have needed in my life but well worth it. Mathew was clear and precise. All involved were helpful and patient. Thank you for making a difficult situation that much smoother.
I had a horrible experience with Crossroads Law. They did not support my positions and instead sided with my wife in far too many instances. I worked closely with Mat Wirove and Matthew Katsionis, they did not sympathize with my situation, responded slowly, and provided low value. My house was pointlessly sold and I rarely see my children. I strongly do NOT recommend Crossroads Law.
Great experience with Crossroads Law-specifically Camille Boyer. She took my case seriously and proceeded with urgency. She was well versed on how each judge would look at my situation and what their responses could be. All my questions and concerns were responded to quickly and thoroughly. She was always a step ahead and had a plan to proceed with. Highly recommend Camille!
I highly recommend Kristin McDonald. She helped me with my family law matters. Kristin was there for me every step of the way with her expertise and professionalism. With Kristin's guidance, I was able to get a consistent parenting order and joint guardianship for my child. I couldn't have done it without her and her team. I would definitely let Kristin represent me again.
Crossroads Law helped me through a bleak divorce, my lawyer Mathew Wirove gave me hope when I felt there was none. They defended me from my estranged ex spouse and brought professionalism and logic into a conflict where I was being treated with unfair prejudice and open hostility. If you need someone to represent you and fight for you, you are at the right place!
Camille has been very knowledgeable throughout the whole process. She has taken a very difficult situation, and managed to guide me through the process with her in depth knowledge, and a very clear and conscience plan. I would highly recommend her to anybody looking for a family lawyer that can empathize and really feel like she has your best interests in mind.
Marcus was knowledgeable and very patient in drafting a comprehensive Pre-Nuptial (post-nuptial) Agreement. We went through the process and Marcus took the time to address all of our questions. We successfully completed the agreement, which was great and appreciated. Amanda assisted in solid form and is on top of her area. Thanks much to you both... Jim
Mat helped guide me through a difficult and emotionally trying time with concise explanations of what was happening (I'm not fluent in legal jargon) and what my most effective strategies would be. He kept my costs low compared to what they otherwise could have been and made the entire process much easier to bear. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I feel like Sheri Ferguson had been a good fit for me as my lawyer. I prefer straight forward people who tell it like it is and she is able to do that while at the same time showing kindness. For me it is important to know where I stand and she has been clear all along. I also like that I know I can trust her to have my best interests at heart.
Very professional and knowledgeable in all aspects of family law. I Would describe the overall experience with Amanda and Katrina as a breath of fresh air, helpful and caring. I felt that they could relate to my specific situation and provided the necessary legal guidance, support and advice in a very difficult time for me and my children.
Crossroads law has been a god send and Mat Wirove has made a stressful situation much easier to cope with i would recommend Mat and Crossroads law to anyone looking for excellent Legal Advice with great value. Mat Has earned my trust and I wouldnt use anyone else to represent my legal matters. I am Grateful for the service i have received.
I have experience with a lot of different lawyers and working with Crossroads was by far the best. Marcus gave excellent advice and was very thoughtful about how to manage the expenses of the case. Marcus and his team were very responsive and delivered superior legal advice, support and service through my journey. Would highly recommend.
Camille has been amazingly helpful with my past legal issues. She’s been very informative, advising me about numerous rights I wasn’t aware of. She’s also very friendly and approachable - I have found other lawyers to be aloof and intimidating in the past. I highly recommend Camille for anything which requires legal assistance.
Amanda Marsden and Katrina Juke helped me with my divorce. I am lucky enough to have been able to settle with this with their guidance and direction. I am very happy with the outcome and will always recommend Amanda and seek her guidance in any legal matter. Great group of people and great team! Thanks so much for everything.
My experience with Mat Wirove has been excellent. I had heard horror stories of lawyers being hard to get hold of, but Mat has been responsive and always provides valuable advice. He is kind, he listens and I feel confident that he is supporting me as best as he can. I would strongly recommend him to anyone!
Camille Bower was exceptional in every way and everyone involved was prompt and helpful in answering my questions. I would definitely recommend this firm and Camille and am very pleased with the price and the incredibly professional work done in making this divorce a smooth one.
Could not be happier with my experience in dealing with Crossroads Law. During the process of my case, the constant communication and insight was not only appreciated but a weight of unknown off my shoulders. A huge thank you to both Camille and Debbie for everything you did.
I cannot recommend Crossroads Law & Marcus Sixta enough. Marcus was excellent to work with, and achieved great results. Marcus was very professional, and demonstrated true passion and commitment in order to win our case. Thank you for all you have done for our family.
Aug 25 2020, Great team of lawyers, i have dealt with a few of them now, and have always had speedy, top teir advice and legal services. All of their staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly suggest this firm for your family ckurt matters.
I hired Amanda for my Divorce, and all I can say was she was a blessing. My Divorce was extremely rough, but she was a sound of reasoning. In a heart best I would hire Amanda again if I ever needed legal help, with my will or family matters
Kristin McDonald has helped me tremendously navigating through the most stressful and scary time of my life. Grateful to have such an incredible lawyer. Thank you Kristin for everything you have done and will do! You're an absolute gem!
Going through a separation is difficult enough, but trying to navigate the legalities is even more daunting. Marcus helped us sort things, told us about options where applicable, and we came away with a very good agreement. Thank you
Camille was professional and made my work load much simpler. I felt taken care of and had the result I hoped for. Service was a bit slow and I found I needed to followup to receive updates but would recommend her services overall.
I appreciated the representation I received from Marcus. He was knowledgeable, provided good advice, and advocated for my best interests. His administrative team was very helpful. I would highly recommend him and Crossroads Law.
I was in need of a lawyer and Ms. Camille Boyer was so amazing to work with. She understood and met my every need. She explained what I needed to do and helped me to understand the process. I highly recommend Ms. Boyer.
Mat Wirove has been an amazing lawyer to date. He has been assisting me to navigate and keep me on track with a very muddy, high conflict divorce. His perspective and methods are valuable and worth every penny.
Thank you Amanda! And cross roads Law!! I only hope you know how much you helped me in the short visit we had. When I need help again.. I’ll be looking you up! Thank you so much!! Deb from Revelstoke.
The team at Crossroads handled family matters in a fair, equitable and professional manner. Very experienced and straight forward. Understand the impacts and manage costs to the benefit of all.
Camille is very honest and caring lawyer. Really appreciate her knowledge and honesty. Right from the beginning she gave me all the options and advised to select the least expensive option.
They only after money , they can't finish if matters are contested. Will give your info to who ever they see fit . Make you wait and when called out , turn on you . Do not use this law firm
My separation/divorce issues are not finalized yet however what I can tell you is that I have been very impressed, satisfied and extremely happy dealing with Marcus and Crossroads Law.
I am so happy to have been represented by Camille Boyer. Camille and Debbie really walked me through a very uncertain and fraught time, and I will be forever grateful. Thank you both.
Marcus has no understanding of the inner workings of self employment taxation principles as they relate to separation and divorce... Buyer beware of this incompetent mediator.
Marcus and Amanda are sensational. I have had a very complicated case and to add to it I am living in Australia. They delivered what they promised and all parties are happy.
Matthew took the time to listen to my concerns. He acted and addressed them quickly. He followed up with client very closely. Matthew is an excellent lawyer.
Runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn away from these people. I haven't said a word and they are asking banking info and passport without even knowing what is going on.
Great service and very efficient, I am glad I was served by Amanda Marsden. I recommend these services to anyone in need of help.
Excellent support and service through a very long and trying case. Camille was terrific. Would definitely recommend to others.
Mat Wirove was very helpful and straight forward with creating a workable agreement that was supported by the EICC.
Marcus is calm, confident and very capable as both counsel and in mediations. Highly recommended.
I’ve received very coherent information from Marcus. It was quick and accurate. Thank you.
Marcus knows the law and is also honest, practical and strategic.
Mat is the best lawyer in the world …
