Mike and Carla Woods
"We were very nervous about creating our Wills and Powers of Attorney before meeting with Josiah. However, he was able to make the process very stress free and simple. His ability to explain concepts of law in easy to understand ways and dedicated work ethic made getting everything done extremely straight forward. We would highly recommend you consider using Josiah for you and your loved ones."
Patrick, Board Member, The Family Central Apartments
"We were referred to Josiah for assistance with our organization's application for charitable status. Working with Josiah was about as good of an experience as you could hope for both as an organization seeking charitable status, but also on a personal level as he brought humanity to the process. Josiah provided effective assistance, and our organization was granted charitable status by the Canada Revenue Agency. We would recommend Josiah to any organization requiring help with this process."
Wayne and Peggy Hockley
"For years we had put off making a will for our family. Josiah made the process both easy to understand and convenient! We did most of it online, and when we had questions, he was understandable and thorough. We feel great about getting this important document for our family done and behind us! Thank you Josiah."
Dan C., Chair, Board of Directors, Local Church
"We were referred to Josiah for legal advice in the preparation of a template contract of employment. His work was prompt and thorough, fully addressing our requirements. He also made some value-added suggestions to ensure that we ended up with the best possible legal agreement. Because of his good work, our negotiations with the final candidate were simple and straightforward and we were able to come to terms quickly, with minimal edits to the final agreement. We would recommend Josiah to other non-profits for employment-related matters."
Dan and Kim Bennett
"We went to Josiah for our wills, something we had no clue about. He was extremely patient and thorough and explained every aspect of the process and decisions required. We had such confidence in him given his vast knowledge. We would and do highly recommend his services to anyone we know."
