Journals of a Mobile Lawyer

I know many people who have to commute to get to work, or have to travel because their job needs them to, so when I travel from my main office in Whitby to my satellite office in Apsley, I know I’m not alone. My Apsley office serves clients within a radius of 60 kilometres of beautiful Ontario landscapes and communities. I drive forty minutes north, and then reach Bancroft, can cross over to Denbigh, and then jaunt on to Ottawa. Yes, this is possible! I’ve done it, and so have my clients. After seeing and traveling to several small towns, I have come to the conclusion that there are no “small” towns, only “Home Towns”. My clients live, work and play in these communities. Getting to know them is one of the most rewarding parts of being a Mobile Lawyer.

My main office is in the heart of Whitby. Durham Region is seeing record-breaking expansion and growth and has everything you need. My office works with families and individuals that are moving in from the GTA and other areas. We enjoy welcoming many of them as they start their new lives in our communities. Existing clients know that they can reach out to my office for Real Estate, Corporate, Wills and Estate matters, and Litigation. In that way, they can count on me to be there for many of their life milestones.

As a sole practitioner, I have the freedom to choose to be flexible and show my dedication to my clients and files differently than other lawyers. For some of you, with demanding work hours and family obligations that means making time for your matter perhaps on a weekend or in the evenings, or while you’re up at the cottage! This is why I choose to practice more than just from Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Don’t get me wrong, I have regular office hours. However, what I do is not just a job to me. My clients are purchasing or selling a home, starting a new business, preparing their Wills and Powers of Attorney, dealing with the estate of a loved one that has passed. I want to be there to help.
