Apparently it was a very busy time for mortgages and working with Trevor and then Khushhal was one of the best transaction experiences of my life. Yes, life. They were very fast, communication was second to none and every detail was covered. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for this type of service.

Lawyers are good here. We've done 9 house purchases/sales with them in the past 5 years but the receptionists are very unprofessional. They've disconnected me repeatedly when transferring or putting on hold and I've had to call back 4 times in one sitting because they don't know what to do so they just keep forwarding me. Recently we were sitting in the waiting room and one of the girls managing the phones told the other she didn't know what to do so she was just going to leave the client on hold. They were much more interested in talking among themselves than I doing their job.

I have rarely shared a review online, however, in this case I thought it was necessary to do so.
Have been a client of Heather at Bell Alliance and let me assure you that it does not get any better. I have worked with many legal companies in my life and yet not received this kind of service.

This firm assisted me with my private real estate sale. Was handed off to three different lawyers during the process (they all had holidays booked one after the other) and had to explain the transaction over again every single time. Sign off on closing date and presented with my bill and think all is done. Then, within a month, they send me another another bill for $700+ as they forgot to bill me for the time of one of the 3 lawyers that dealt with my transaction. Tell the paralegal doing the conveyancing to utilize the $700 they have on hold back to pay the bill and then I'll pay the difference

Nick Go is very professional and knowledgeable. I have gone to Nick for three real estate transactions and he provides excellent service every time. He takes the time to explain all the legal documents in detail making the stressful process of home buying and selling very smooth and easy. I highly recommend Nick to anyone who needs a real estate lawyer.

Lalli Deol and his team at Bell Alliance provided us with excellent legal advice and services. Lalli went above and beyond to help us have a smooth closing in our real estate transaction. Lalli answered our emails promptly and efficiently and explained everything well and came through with all questionable issues. We found him to be reliable, courteous and professional. We highly recommend Lalli without any reservations to anyone needing a real estate lawyer.
We had a great experience and would definitely recommend Lalli Doel to anyone looking for a real estate attorney.

Nick was recommend to me by a friend and colleague for the purchase of my condo. She had reported using his services and was very satisfied a d happy with the outcome. I can attest to that. He was very good, Easy to talk to, and explained the process well to me as a first time home buyer. I would recommend him to help you purchase your home too.

I recently used Bell Alliance for both, the sale of my Vancouver property as well as for the purchase of a new home. Lalli Deol and his BA team provided invaluable real-estate law services – they had always responded in a timely manner as well as promptly and consistently directing us to the right information and documentation files. They were also very transparent about their fee structure.

I knew about Bell Alliance before working with Bell Alliance. My previous company did a lots of real estate transactions and one of the events that we hosted was with the Asian Realty Association and other realtors and lawyers like Caldwell Banker, Remax, Bell Alliance and etc.
At my current work, I was involved in selling a Multifamily real estate. We were working with a realtor and I asked the realtor if there was a lawyer that they preferred working with. He referred me to Lisa Niro. She is a wonderful lady. The price she charges was very reasonable. I was surprised that she was not that expensive

I needed update my will and a friend of mine recommended this firm. It was a straight forward request, with a few minor changes. The consultation was short and I had no questions. I felt that because I had no relationship with the firm or their employees, that my needs were not a priority. I showed up to my appointments on time and was made to wait for the lawyers each time. This is not a doctor's office or a Starbucks. This is a private law firm where appointments are set up in advance and I'm disappointed with my overall experience.

Unless you like having to do work 2 or 3 times over, I would strongly recommend NOT using Bell Alliance.
The lawyer I was who assigned to me was often late to appointments and re-scheduling meetings. When my legal papers were
finally completed and signed, Bell Alliance called me back to re-sign paper work due to an error they had made on the original signing. On top of everything, I get a notice from the government a year later, that the property tax Bell Alliance had calculated and collected was incorrect and now I have to pay an additional amount.

Closing on a property, bank was slow getting docs to both me and Bell Alliance -- they arrived just two hours before our scheduled meeting! still, BA was able to review everything in time, and then walked me through all details and my questions. in & out in 15 minutes. great communication, very professional. kudos to Geoffrey, Judi, Lindsay.

Not attentive at all. Ben Hagen either takes on more than he can manage or is indifferent to specific real estate needs. It's best to pitch him something slow and easy to hit. I needed a quick turn around to purchase a half duplex in Surrey with co-owners, sent emails, and spoke directly with Ben. I never got further answers from him without a prompt, and then it was a non-answer. I've since found personable representation.

I have used the services of two lawyers in this company, Richard Bell to close a real estate deal, and Heather Bell to get advice on an immigration issue. The quality of the legal services is top notch. Communication is 10 out of 10. Both Heather and Richard provided innovative solutions to minimize the legal bill. I never thought I would be on "Yelp" raving about lawyers, but I feel compelled to do so. These guys are GREAT. Extremely professional and genuinely caring.

I'd like to highly recommend Bell Alliance, specifically Khusshal Bains (lawyer) and Trevor Tidder (conveyancer) for helping us out resolve a sticky mortgage situation. We had previously engaged another Large Real Estate Law Firm (LRELF) , whom we had done business with for two other real estate transactions, to help us with closing and execution of a mortgage. Long story short - this other LRELF sat on our mortgage documents for over 2 months, tried to get things done barely a week before closing, discovered there was a hitch which caused the Bank to nearly back out of the mortgage, then
