Business Law
We know business is a dynamic, competition-based reality. We know you have to make decisions to grow, consolidate, or reposition.
All lawyers will tell you that they know the law, communicate persuasively, bill fairly and report regularly.
We do that.
Here’s what else you can expect:
• We operate at the speed of business.
We know business doesn’t always happen during business hours. We know business happens all over the globe.
Today, geography gives way to technology. Different time zones speak of opportunities, not barriers.
A smarter law firm means a more accessible lawyer.
• We help local go global.
We employ communication, data collaboration & transfer technology that makes the world smaller, faster and easier for our business clients; whether they are in Southwestern Ontario or Southeast Asia. We can meet, negotiate, sign and close locally or globally.
A smarter law firm means a more productive lawyer.
• We don’t reinvent the wheel.
Sometimes all that’s needed is a form, document or tip that can solve problems or issues that repeat in your business. We create customizable smart forms that you can use as often as you need; flexible enough to allow for changes without leaving you exposed. We track versions, use and currency to make sure you have what you need to operate without having to reinvent the wheel each time you need it.
A smarter law firm means a smarter lawyer.
At The Ross Firm, Business Law stands for:
• Planning new companies, or succession planning
• Advocating on behalf of our clients and resolving disputes through negotiation or litigation
• Negotiating and drafting contracts for businesses, partners, shareholders, employees, and others
• Buying, selling, restructuring or refinancing a business
• Advising and providing guidance on laws and regulations impacting your business
Someday everyone will be doing it our way,
We're doing it now.

Family Law
The problem isn’t knowing when you need a family lawyer, it’s knowing which one to choose.

The day I walked into The Ross Firm was a day that I began to feel validated as a client.

Real Estate Law
People want 3 things from their real estate lawyer:
- If they are buyers…they want the key to their new house.
- If they are sellers…they want the cheque.
- Both want to know it's being done right.
All lawyers will tell you that they know the law, communicate persuasively, bill fairly and report regularly.
We do that.
Here’s what else you can expect:
• We communicate across platforms that suit you.

In many cases, we can have you in and out of the office in 20 minutes without ever having touched a single piece of paper. Your signed documents will be waiting in your email when you leave.
We can of course do it the old-fashioned way if you prefer, but it's much more fun doing it electronically.

We’ve got some good news and some bad news.
The bad news is that we all have a “best before” date. The good news is that with some planning, those left behind won’t have a legal mess to clean up.All lawyers will tell you that they know the law, communicate persuasively, bill fairly and report regularly.

My wife and I worked with Matt Chapman on our wills and estate planning. It was complicated as we have a few businesses and are working with a trust company that would act as executor for the personal and corporate holdings of our estate and in the event of our deaths. We also have young children so we were anxious that everything was completed properly. We found Matt to be informed, patient and thorough throughout the entire process. He was meticulous in reviewing the trust information and pointed out a number of items of concern. Matt liaised directly with the various companies involved to determine that everything was reflective of our best interests and those of our children. In the end we were confident that our affairs were in good order and would have no hesitation recommending Matt to anyone looking for a solicitor. [read less...]
