The company I work for has been dealing with Fedewich & Witt for over 10 years. They are always very accommodating of our last minute request for appointments and the front line staff are friendly and professional. Norm and Trish are extremely knowledgeable and provide helpful information in all aspects of business.

We had a great experience with using Norm and company for our mortgage. Norm went out of his way to make sure we understood everything. The other staff were very efficient in all matters and the purchase went without a hitch. I highly recommend them.

After much procrastination, and fear of the unknown, we reached out to Fedewich & Witt to do our Wills, Powers of Attorney, and to do a land transfer to add my spouse to the title of our home. I was happy to be able to do the initial meeting via Zoom online, from the comfort of my own home. They explained everything very clearly, answered our many questions, and put our minds at ease. Afterwards, they emailed draft documents for our review. When the documents were finished, we met in person to sign them.
We are very happy and relieved it is all finally done and behind us, and are very thankful

We had very bad experience with this firm. With our recent purchase we chose Fedewich and Witt as our lawyer. We felt like we were not dealt fairly. We have had this firm our lawyer in the past and we’re very well known to the firm. We emailed Norman, whom we were dealing with and had bad experience, to the date we have not received an apology email from him. He did not show a sense of respect and responsibility towards us. It felt like all they cared about was their money.
Will never go back to them and do not recommend them at all to our friends and family.

It has been a rewarding experience for our family working with F&W. Beginning in 2013, the office has professionally handled five (5) real estate transactions for us. Steps in each process of conveyancing were fully explained, accurately and swiftly dispatched. From reception to accounting, the office staff have been professional and cordial. Appointments are kept and office parking is free and convenient.
My wife and I entrusted Trish with discussing and developing final wishes documents. This included our Power of Attorney and Power of Representation Agreements, as well as Last Will and Testament

Trish was fantastic helping my wife and I put together our Wills and Power of Attorneys. She explained everything very clearly giving us the peace of mind that having these documents should. Really nice staff and a very safe system during COVID. We felt safe the whole time and would recommend Fedewich and Witt to anyone who needs a great family run Notary.

My family was very pleased with our entire experience with Fedewich and Witt from our first phone call, correspondence in between to finally signing and closing our mortgage. Very professional, knowledgable, personable and comfortable experience. We were also provided with some invaluable tips that will likely save a lot of hassle and money in the end. We will definately return here for other needs as they arise. Thank you for excellent service.

For over 30 years Fedewich & Witt have been my notaries providing me with exemplary professional service. With this company, I have purchased and sold over seven properties, prepared a will, a power of attorney and had them notarize letters and other documents. Trish, Norm El, and their team have always shown a genuine concern and caring for my family and my business transactions. They are a top notch firm who truly care about their clients and deliver the highest level of professionalism and customer service.

My husband and I have used Fedewich and Witt for various things over the past 15 years. Trish, Norm and their team have always provided great service to us. They go over and above by giving us sound advice, prompt, reliable, courteous, professional service at a reasonable price.
We continue to use them and would not hesitate to recommend them.

We recently sold a home and required legal services and Norm and Trish were recommended to us. I called a number of times and received either immediate or quick assistance from Norm. When I raised questions, Norm comfortably and confidently provided a detailed legal perspective. I was impressed. My expectations were honestly exceeded. I have called legal offices looking for advice or information on points of law and have had my calls unanswered. I have found Norm to be a trustworthy, humble, and down to earth person who provides a solid and quality service.

The service that Trish and her team provided was very professional and helpful. Trish was very thorough when going over the legal documents for buying a home. She gave some great advice and suggestions. At one point, I was quite nervous about going through with the process but Trish made me feel at ease by going over my legal rights as a buyer. Clearly knowledgeable group of people. In addition, her staff was very professional. They responded to my emails and phone calls ASAP. When they knew that something was urgent, they made sure that it got to Trish right away. I highly recommend this Notary
