RE: TOUGH LAWYER
I’ve just had my attention drawn to the Toronto law firm of Irving Solnik through a post in the news section of RollonFriday today.
***
1. The approach to business of law taken by Solnik is on point. I draw your attention to a statement on his website:
WHEN LEGAL MATTERS ARE TOUGH THEY BECOME GRIST TO HIS MILL AND HE BECOMES MUCH TOUGHER — TOUGHER THAN HE USUALLY IS!
“He is an aggressive no nonsense lawyer who can remedy legal problems or matters that trouble you and rid you of the pain, often quickly and easily.
No matter what your legal problem may be Irving Solnik can invariably and often solve it, at times quickly and easily too.”
Worth checking the front page of the website out. Straight, tough, talking.
2. Solnik takes a pragmatic line with clients:
“Truth is vital to the administration of justice and according to Irving Solnik, “There are many gray areas in law but in my opinion there is no gray area about the truth.” Yet it can be questionable if all clients tell the entire truth at all times. An absence of truth has the potential to seriously hinder the legal process and a client’s ability to receive the justice they deserve.
Before he accepts a new client, Irving Solnik, always advises the client to be totally truthful with him and if he finds otherwise, he immediately resigns as counsel for his client.”
3. If we have any Canadian based issues – this may be our man.

Matt: I’d give this fellow a wide berth – obviously barking !
That was a joke, right?
