Jason Shelly is a superstar. As a Realtor, we have had the privilege of referring our clients to him. He is a consummate professional, timely in his communication and generous with his time. On a personal note, we have reached out to Jason on a number of occasions for his advice and guidance. This is one smart man and he went so far as to help us source other professionals in his industry for something that was outside his wheel house. Amazing and such an indication of an attitude of abundance and collaboration. I really can't imagine being in better hands both with the level of integrity and the

I would never recommend this firm. I asked for a short consultation and was charged for the work I did not ask for, nor got a service for. When I paid for the time I used with the lawyer, by the way he charges $425/hours, the firm sent me an invoice for the time I never asked for. When I did not pay, they sued me.

I only know a junior, Shelbi Dippold, but if the others are as good I would rate SKS as a standout among Ottawa area law firms. I have certainly had some less happy experiences thereof. Mine was a very sad and trying situation, which she quickly understood and then resolved in the simplest and best possible way. Very responsive, clear, and smart. Retain SKS Law if you can.

Great great law firm! Very responsive the team was always there to answer our questions. We just bought our home and we used Stephen and Guillaume from SKS law as our lawyers. They looked after us, helped us, and protected us from any future potential issues. They were great at explaining every step. Take my advice and use them, you will not be disappointed!
