I know that problems can present themselves at all hours, and life isn't going to wait around. If you need help just pick up the phone and I'll be there for you: 24 hours a day, and 7 days a week. I often hear the comment in the media that a person charged with a criminal offense "got off on a technicality".
I find that offensive. No one in Canada "gets off on a technicality". Our Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees all Canadians the right to life, liberty and security of the person; the right to remain silent; the right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure; and, the right to retain and instruct counsel of choice.

Ron, Laura and the rest of his staff worked tirelessly for almost a year on my father's case. We had seen 2 other firms before giving Ron's a call; in both cases my father had felt uncomfortable with the attempt at representation, and felt he had been counted out before giving his side. Ron Ellis, on the other hand, took the case without anything but my father's account, and believed it, without question. He began mapping the case, before the retainer had even been deposited.
Throughout the course of the negotiations, Ron and Laura were a rock for our family. We have mental health issues in our

We had Ron and his team helping us with a criminal charge that was fairly serious. Him and his team were great to work with and we are very happy with the outcome, especially considering the alternative. I would recommend him to anyone needing a good lawyer. You won't be disappointed.

Could not have asked for a better legal representative. I have been in business with Ron and his team on separate occasions. He is amazing at his work, and very professional. He will be there for you in your time of need. Laura has been awesome to work with aswell, both cases with Ron and Laura could not have ended with a better outcome. I STRONGLY recommend them.

Ron is probably the best defence council in the London area. He always answered my questions and respond to my emails, whether it was early in the morning or late at night. He is very intelligent and confident. In fact, he was the only lawyer willing to take on my unique and interesting case. Thankfully the issue was resolved before trial and now I have nothing to worry about. I would definitely recommend!

I cannot stress enough how much I highly recommend choosing Melissa Anjema paralegal from Ron Ellis law firm for any Pardon/ record suspension needs. Melissa is excellent!
She has a 100% success rate. I first applied for a pardon/record suspension on my own and and was going to be denied. I panicked and decided to seek help with my second chance to appeal. That is when I discovered Ron Elissa law firm and was in contact with Melissa. She was more than happy to take me on as a client. Melissa took great pride in my case. She kept communicating frequently with me. Melissa prepared an excellent letter

From start to finish, Ron, Laura and all the wonderful people working at the firm were extremely professional and dedicated to the case at hand. They were always a phone call or email away from answering my questions or concerns. They always kept me well informed about everything and always reached out in a timely manner in regards to how things were proceeding. They were very clear and transparent about payment options and legal fees. All in all I would highly recommend Ron Ellis Law firm.

Ron and Laura Ellis were absolutely great lawyers when I found myself needing a criminal lawyer. In the end they got my charges taken from a federal charge with jail time to a provincial charge with probation and community service. They are very professional, kind, helpful and understanding and they all make sure you are well informed and walk you through the whole process step by step. If I had questions about anything I could text or call them and I would hear back immediately or within a couple hours 7 days a week. They made sure I understood everything that was going on and gave me their honest

Good people sometimes make bad decisions. This is the phrase that helped me through my horrible mistake. Ron showed empathy and a well thought out plan to bring my case to a best case resolution.
Ron also has an amazing supporting team. Melissa is well organized very well educated in law but most important to me she is a wonderful human being. Laura was wonderful and helped me tremendously with understanding in laments terms how the legal process works. I recommend Ron Ellis Law to anyone that requires best in class legal representation. Thank you team Ron Ellis Law.

Ron is an incredible individual who not only has the know how, but more importantly the integrity you need when working with a lawyer. He is a true professional who takes great pride in his practice and his team @ Ron Ellis Law is an extension of his high standards. Although every situation is unique, I truly believe Ron is a natural born winner who can help you navigate through the broken justice system

I had never been in any kind of trouble with the law before so this whole experience was very overwhelming to me. Ron put me at ease as he walked me through the process step by step and gave me a cost estimate that I thought was quite reasonable. Ron Ellis law attended all of my court dates for me and would update me after each. Ron was extremely professional as well as knowledgeable, he kept a positive attitude and ensured me that we had a good defence and that he would defend me the best he could. Through his legal expertise Ron was eventually able to have my charges completely withdrawn. I highly
