Lawyer rates are out of control

It is dawning on me that lawyers are actually pricing themselves out of the market.


The norm seems to be around $350 an hour which eats up $25,000 in a couple weeks….

A client just told me about a family law matter where the lawyer used up her $25,000 and the resigned her file.
all in less than a month.

Not impressive….

The LSUC are cowards and bullies

Dealing with The Law Society of Upper Canada (LSUC)
(Ontario)

The LSUC has published a malicious, slanderous and cowardly personal attack on J Kirby Inwood and CanLaw. They know we are not stupid enough to sue the Law Society when all lawyers and all judges are members. If there were any way to stop these attacks we would consider them, but sometimes, might is right.

The published notice about CanLaw contains lies. The allegations simply are not true. When CanLaw did threaten a libel suit we were told that if we proceeded, the LSUC would "crush" us.

I believe they would. They have endless resources.

We are just a small firm and can do nothing but ask that people who see those slanders use their head.

CanLaw has taken vast amounts of business from the LSUC referral services.

They are simply trying to put CanLaw out of business so they can go back to charging $5 a minute for referrals that should be free, as are CanLaw's.

Good Morning:

CanLaw is about to undertake a massive rebuild and overhaul of the main web site.

The current look is getting dated and it is simply time for a change. So we are wide open to improvement ideas.

The changes will take most of the summer to implement, but what is a few months in the 16 year long
life of CanLaw eh?

I would appreciate any feedback or suggestions on how to make the service work better for you.

Anything will be considered and appreciated

Remember, sacred cows make the best hamburger.

Thanks
J Kirby Inwood
