Contacted them looking for a good business lawyer. Some of the information wasn't setup properly when we began and we need a good lawyer for multiple things. I was hoping to have a consultation to get some advice, and see what we need moving forward, as well as get directed to an initial form I need. However, I'm pretty sure the legal secretary (or whoever answers the phone) took us for a small corporation because I wanted to look this one form over myself; (she probably thought that due to my lack of legal knowledge). She dismissed my inquiry, recommended a 'cheaper firm' (which was never an issue for us). She said 'good luck' and hung up on me. I'll try another legal firm, thanks. Edit Regarding their response: While I do appreciate every business that replies to social media reviews; I did try to get a consultation. That was my exact wording and request when I called. Unfortunately before it could get to that point, the person on the phone did not deem my call worth their time and literally hung up on me after saying 'good luck'. So there was no way for me to get a consultation.

We are an Ontario Dairy Farm family. We've had two occasions where we've employed the services of Martin Aquilina of HazloLaw. The first involved a dispute with a company over service bills from a substandard robotic milking system they sold us and the second involved advising and helping us with solar panel lease contracts with a European company. Martin's expertise and personable nature is beyond anything we've ever encountered. We were given his name from another Dairy Farmer and were apprehensive in contacting a "big city" corporate lawyer for our needs. We are incredibly grateful that we did. Beyond the top-notch, attentive, indispensable legal advise and services Martin provided, his personal approach with us has to be what we deem as most valued. Even though he and his office are over 250km away from us, everything was able to be done over the phone and internet. He was as convenient as the town lawyer 2km away. Martin Aquilina is now the only lawyer we will use for our business farm needs and we recommend him to all our business friends and neighbours.

I had the pleasure and good fortune to work with Martin Aquilina regarding the settlement of an international Estate that also involved commercial property. The matter was complex and involved extensive property in two countries. That Mr. Aquilina is highly skilled in these matters was apparent to me from the beginning. But what set Mr. Aquilina apart from other legal counsel, in my view, was his ability to hone into the very root of the issue, discern the risks and opportunities that were not readily apparent on the surface, and develop a strategic response that resulted in a very satisfactory outcome. Mr. Aquilina's skill and strategic analysis ensured that at all times I was confident that my file was being successfully executed and that my interests were protected. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Mr. Aquilina again and happily recommend his services.

I highly recommend HazloLaw and the services I received from this law firm and in particular one of their lawyers, DEAN BLACHFORD. Why? To begin: he earned my trust and confidence from the very begining of our professional relationship; exhibiting a very professional communication ability that inspired confidence throughout the course of our court case with CRA which we won because they eventually dropped their case charges against me. As a component of his communication skills was the fact of his availability to respond to any of my inquiries as well as keeping me abreast of developments relative to our case. I was most impressed by his legal knowledge and acumen. In closing I highly recommend both the firm and Dean Blachford. Lawrence Rooney

HazloLaw did an excellent job on our international business case. We were looking to establish a company in Bulgaria and had no idea where to start. Martin Aquilina took care of everything for us: contacting the right authorities, making arrangements for incorporation in Bulgaria, translating, notarizing, and couriering documents, and setting us up with accounting services to manage our taxes and payroll. HazloLaw was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout the entire project. We are now successfully established and operating in Bulgaria, thanks to Martin and the rest of the team at HazloLaw. We will continue to use their services for any international legal work. Highly recommended!

HazloLaw was recommended by my accountants to deal with a CRA Tax issue and I have been working with Dean Blachford over the last several months. I have only positive things to say about my experience with him and Hazlo Law ! He is knowledgeable, professional, on time and is great at explaining the coming steps in the process, with tremendous accuracy actually. I highly recommend Mr. Blachford to anyone needing assistance in dealing with Tax related issues, and I would not hesitate to reach out to that firm if I had business or international law related issues in the future.

Not only did Martin help with the questions I had, he also provided me with reassurance and detailed explanations about my case. He also went above and beyond by supplying me with all the extra information about things I didn't even think of. Even though I have a tiny company, I still felt like a valuable and important client whose needs were just as important as anyone else's. Very pleased and definitely would recommend.

We've been very happy with the service provided by Martin Aqualinia at HazlowLaw. Martin's attention to detail, combined with his vast business knowledge is a great asset to any business, especially ours!

Called for their urgent help, they told me to call back the next day then couldn't get direct contact to a lawyer, waited for few days. Still never called me back... Not professional nor responsive.

Hugues has been my lawyer and business partners for more than 10 years and I have always been very appreciative of his services. The firm offers great service as well as good business knowledge.

Mr. Blachford was very understanding and helpful with respect to my CRA auditing dispute. Very experienced and professional. - Rob

This firm was not completely transparent about billing and I found their advice to be poor.
