Paul Francis took excellent care of me in a very scary situation. I had been very ill, not able to work and nearly lost my house due to the time it took to get well. He was very professional and gave me a hand up. Not many lawyers are up to his and his company’s standards. He does everything well and with an old world style and accuracy, with superior attention to detail. He really saved me by going over and above. He himself went to the bank to save me hundreds in fees, that he wanted to help me to avoid paying. The team members work like a well oiled machine, showing compassion, professionalism, warmth, and understanding. Paul and his family and staff are first rate. I have had the pleasure of using Paul Francis Lawyers services and I would refer this Law Office without hesitation and with respect and gratitude.

We were fortunate enough to be referred to the firm by our realtor and were directed to Associate Baljinder (Bally) Basi. Bally was kind, sweet, courteous, and professional in walking us through the biggest transaction of our life. The fees were extremely reasonable and Bally was able to reassure us that all was going well throughout the process, even though we were probably the most paranoid, nervous, anxious clients she's ever had! She always took the time to answer all our emails and ensured our very tight timeline was met.

Thank you so much, Bally, for helping us make our dream come true.

I 100% recommend Bally if you're looking for a lawyer to help you through a home purchase!

Honestly hands down the best law firm you could ever find. They are professional, respond to your calls and emails quickly, and keep you informed every step of the way. The managing partner, Farhad Mehr, paired me up with an amazing solicitor, Bally. Thanks to her and her team (Sue and Caitlynne), we were able to close on our house on time even when it came down to the wire: they pulled it off (4 55PM on Friday!!). I will recommend/refer Bally and this law firm any chance I get to my colleagues, friends and family as I know they will be in good, trust worthy hands :)

Francis Lawyers receives the best review from both my daughter and myself. We just closed on buying a new home a few hours ago. Marie Francis is awesome. She explains every detail for you. So friendly and knowledgeable. And Sue Hillsdon is a miracle worker. She worked so hard to have everything completed on time. Even though everybody is wearing a mask you can clearly see in her eyes that she is smiling behind the mask. The entire team is great. Do not hesitate to have this group represent you. You can't do wrong with them.
We appreciate everything you have done for us. Thank You Everybody!!!

Being a first-time homebuyer can be scary, perhaps even more during the pandemic, with all the delays and supply chain issues. Thankfully we were paired with Bally, who along with her team, reassured and guided us through the entire process. The closing came down to the wire! but they were able to pull. Thank you very much for all the hard work. 100% recommended.

She thoroughly studied the case, aware of the details and provided proper advice along the way until the end. Based on my experience, I will not I will not hesitate to recommend Joy and her firm to anyone. Thank you.
