Reviews of Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers (Attorney)

Alison Beckwith

As a family law attorney for more than two decades in Ontario, Russell Alexander is highly skilled in his craft of navigating the complexities of divorce, separation and family mediation. Through his blog, essays and interviews in mass-market publications, and Amazon best-selling book with another book coming out later this year, he has worked to share that hard-won knowledge so that everyday Canadians can make informed decisions about their own lives. His emphasis on collaborative law and mediation has made him a thought-leader on how families can get through difficult times while avoiding damaging and emotionally draining courtroom fights. If you are looking for someone who can break things down and explain the consequences in plain English, Alexander should be the first person you talk with.

I highly recommend Russell Alexander and his Collaborative crew. I know Russell through our work with the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals (IACP) and find him energetic, a powerful spokesperson for Collaborative Practice, and innovative, all great qualities for a Collaborative Practitioner.

Minalebih Mikre

My name is Minalebih Mikre. I have known Mr. Rick Peticca for almost a decade, first when he was working at the Shulman law firm and now at Russell Alexander. Mr. Peticca represented me on two occasions. I am pleased with his work. Something I noticed from his quilting is that he takes the time to listen to your concerns to defend your case well. He is compassionate, has a good knowledge of the law and judgment.

Arielle Legall

Michelle Mulchan impressed me as a knowledgeable, professional and tenacious family law lawyer. She clearly explained the separation/divorce process to me and with compassion, helped me successfully navigate a very emotionally charged period in my life. She promptly and efficiently addressed all my concerns and kept me apprised of events as they unfolded. I was very pleased with the exceptional level of service I received. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone as it is evident that the best interests of her clients are paramount.

Laila Hobbs

My experience with Nafisa Nazarali has been excellent. She gives incredible time and attention to her clients, and has a calming and confident presence during very difficult proceedings. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support she provides, and find her to be extremely diligent and thorough in her dealings. . I also appreciate working with people that care for you on a personal level instead of just handling you as a “case“. Definitely highly recommend!

Rikki Guy

Age E. Prononced Aga Smies

For a few years, I have been following the articles and podcasts generated by Russell Alexander. While working for the Newfoundland Supreme Court, I often shared the information with colleagues. After my return to Ontario, I am still doing so, and I often refer clients to their website. I find the information provided clear, knowledgeable, straight forward and very useful. As an accredited family mediator, I obviously hope that people will avoid court if at all possible. However, insight and knowledge is power and Russell and his associates certainly provide it.

I will highly recommend the company to anyone who has the same problem! Thanks Russell!

hard rock racing

One of the worst decisions of my life was to hire Russell Alexander. He dragged out the case for over 2 years & drained over &100,000 in fees from me. Do yourself a favor and dont believe some of the positive reviews. Those are from his employees. When it came to going to court, Russell makes no attempt to represent you properly.

Amy Ibanez

Margie was very helpful and informative. Great service!

I was very happy with the service provided by Russell Alexander. Carolyn seemed to genuinely care about my situation and went above and beyond what was expected.

Eli B

"We’re here to make the bad and the ugly a little less bad and ugly" is right on their website. But they could have gone further than that writing about Brittany Whalen. Brittany will also make your journey through all of this less stressful, and more understandable, because Brittany is not only a great lawyer, but also a great communicator. She listens when it's time to listen, and talks when it's time to talk. She has a rare combination of empathy and toughness. I witnessed her in a room with another "tough" lawyer. The other lawyer was trying to rattle Brittany with an angry and aggressive style but to absolutely no effect! During the barrage of that other lawyer Brittany kept a calm composure and just did what she does best; practice excellent law. In that room on that day I knew who the real boss was. Despite all the mayhem coming from the other side of the table on that day I felt at ease knowing that I was sitting next to Brittany.

Brittany Whalen

Amazing employees - each and every one of them!! Russell is pretty cool too.

She is always happy to help, and open to share her knowledge or listening to client’s concerns in an empathic way. I totally recommend her and Russell Alexander!

John Foster

This guy dumped me after I already gave him 30000 the day before my trial and I had to scramble around to find another lawyer that day. All because I didn't have his last 3500 retainer that day this guy is a dump truck and money hungry and now still having problems with the same case so thanks for absolutely nothing.

In the end, they helped making the right decisions which led to a very positive outcome. Thank you again to all!

Paul Boyd

Russell was good lawyer to work with for our closing. Responds to email within a couple of hours. Offers additional legal counsel and advice when things are not typical. His fees are very affordable and not outlandish. I highly recommend him as a lawyer.

Debbie Trentadue

I had been searching for a Family Law Firm that would be even willing to answer a few questions regarding my child support payments that I have been paying for 25 years. I was fortunate enough to be listening to Q107 one morning on my way to work and could not believe that a Family Law Firm was actually advertising on a FM radio station. I took a chance contacted Russell Alexander through the web page and immediately was in contact with a chat representative who put me in touch with a customer service rep (Drisshti), very thorough. She then had Margie an extremely knowledgeable associate whom I look forward to working with in the future. Brad

Mike Whalen

My journey began being self-represented in the Family Branch. As my issues became more complex and with two weeks to obtain Counsel during Judges Trials (busy season), the Firm was able to set me up for consultation and help me retain an Associate Lawyer. They were there to represent me at a crucial stage of a mobility matter when I needed support. An associate Lawyer and the Collective Firm worked in a timely manner to meet my needs and demonstrated extensive knowledge of Case Law in their preparation of my delicate and emotional matter.When I had the opportunity and pleasure to meet Russell given the short deadline, he recalled his review of my material personally and demonstrated a true commitment to his Collective Firm. Mr. Alexander heirs on the side of confidence while striving to achieve excellence richly tied to the community. If you seek quality and Representation by a name backed by a team of passionate individuals, place your trust in Russell. With Sincere Gratitude, M.H.

As a fellow divorce lawyer, I am impressed by the skills of Russell Alexander and the team that he has assembled at his law firm.

You will be glad that you chose him to represent you.

I met with Susanna less than one week prior to using her services. I was immediately put at ease with how Susanna made me feel as a client of this firm. Family law matters are not easy, especially emergency and urgent hearings. Susanna carries herself in a calming and professional matter. She is easy to talk to. Her attention to detail did not go unappreciated. Her behaviour in the courtroom was everything I could have hoped for. I am grateful to have this entire team on MY side for the duration of my case.

I highly recommend James Alexander. He is very knowledgable and professional.

Emily Rutledge

I contacted this firm for a consult regarding an urgent family matter. I was scheduled for a consult at 1100 and had to take the day off of work to accommodate this time frame. On the day of the consult (today) I had several missed calls at 1000. When I was able to return the call I was advised that the time had been changed to 1000 the previous week although nothing was sent by email and no updated zoom link was provided. Evidently this firm does not take its client's time or matters seriously, nor does the office have things very organized. I have requested a refund for the consult (they require you to pay up front) and it's anyone's guess if I'll see my money back. So I'm out the consult fee and the day at work. What a waste of time. If your matter is of any importance I would suggest finding a firm that is a bit more organized and values your time as much as they value their own.

Jennifer Falzon

Big thanks to Erin Simpson for her insight and helpfulness. Will definitely recommend this company.

Jerome Bosnjak

I was going through a rough time and needed some legal help from a lawyer and my friend suggested Lori to me and Iam so glade that my friend did that for me Lori is an outstanding lawyer now like my friend I too will tell anyone looking for a lawyer that Lori is the lawyer to use if they want positive results. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to me and my case I appreciate it more then you know. Jerome Bosnjak

Russell has gone above and beyond inside the office and out for our community and his clients. He also has the best hair.

nigel lall

Adam Borer was my lawyer during my separation and he was a instrumental in guiding me through what is inevitably a painful process. Adam demonstrated an excellent knowledge of the process and provided empathy and updates during the process. Although I hope to never go through this process again, don’t hesitate to meet with Adam and judge for your self his ability to help you through the process

Drew Carey

Amanda MacDonald

Working with Carolyn Warner and Sarah Poeta has been a pleasure from day one. Carolyn has been very informative, helpful and supportive in her communications.

Dorothy Knight

I left my home and my husband told me I would get nothing and had given up my rights. I was so scared. I went to Russell and he was able to have the home sold and I got my half. He also got me an alimony order and the judge told my husband to pay for my lawyer’s bill. Thank you, Russell, for being there for me. I would have been homeless without you.

My wife and I worked with Brittany Whelan at the Russell Alexander legal firm. We were impressed with the warmth and professionalism of the team and especially Ms. Whelan. She has a positive personality and helped us with sound legal advice. We both noticed the care taken keeping everyone safe with this pandemic.

Bob Harbic

I have been providing legal services for Russell Alexander's firm for close to twenty years. Throughout this period I have always been struck by the dedication, professionalism and efficiency of his front line staff. People such as Dani have forever provided the supports and expertise that have made my services so much easier to perform, something I am sure the clients of the firm appreciate. It is a priviledge to rate the buisness so highly and I do not see that changing as long as people like Dani and Ashley and Darla and Kaitlyn are there to ensure its smooth operation. Bob Harbic (B-Served legal services)

Diane C

I met with Adam who took the time to listen. Once Adam had a better understanding of my situation, he provided me with legal options. I was really impressed that there was no pressure to make any immediate decisions; this empowered me to eventually take the first step towards closure.

nikoletta gabriele

I met Pamela when I asked her for an informational interview as I plan on becoming a legal professional. Pamela was very helpful and insightful during my conversation with her. You can tell she’s passionate about law and has a great heart. We’ve kept in contact since, and she provides me with additional tips as I apply to law school this summer. I never would have imagined that I would walk out of an informational interview with a mentor. I really have nothing but the best to say about Pamela.

Jordan Borg

I had made the mistake of working with Russel Alexander. I found the firm unorganized, unprofessional and unwilling to fully understand my case. I felt like all they wanted was my money and they didn't care about actually helping or learning my file. I switched to a smaller firm and it was definitely the right decision. I would highly discourage anyone from working with this firm or Russel.

Will Lazary

Couldn't ask for better guidance from jason. Really helped me out with my situation. Answered all my questions and really educated me on my matter. I would strongly recommend using them. ???? Thanks again for your help.

barb varahidis

Joe Pastore

FINALLY a lawyer and law firm that fights for YOUR rights and not wanting to sing kumbaya to the other party! Both my wife and I knew within 10 minutes of our initial consultation with Susanna that we MUST retain her to represent my wife who is being challenged by her dead beat ex husband for child support.

Maryellen Benner

Thorough intake however not impressed by the legal team. Both people receptionist and lawyer didn’t ask appropriate questions or inquire how they could help. The online questionnaire seemed heavily relied upon. Receptionist angrily hung up the phone when I said I wasn’t sure the lawyer they chose for me was the right fit.

Dan Dzn

If I had to choose one word to characterize Pamela, "tenacious" comes to mind. Specifically, Pamela is a people-person who is efficient, detail-oriented, and capable. She excels in dynamic settings that necessitate problem-solving abilities, as I experienced firsthand in her management of her Toronto co-owned business. Pamela's passion and enthusiasm for her profession are clear in the energy and empathy she delivers to clients, in my opinion. Finally, as a young adult, I put myself in Pamela's position when she was my age and consider the difficult decision, she took to come to Canada alone. Pamela's tenacity allowed her to not only achieve but also exceed her goals, which is something I admire about her.

I hired Russel after firing my first divorce lawyer which was a total waste of my time. Russel is a very decent and caring person, as well as an aggressive litigator. Hire him if you want the best.

Having the right lawyer to guide you is a crucial decision.

Adam Kinakin

I want to thank Brittany Whalen for her knowledge and compassion during our consultation.

I met with Rick for my initial consult. I must say he is easy to get along with, curious about the scenario at hand, always providing options and definitely knows his stuff. He made me aware of situations that I didn't even think of and took the time to explain to me the options/rights that i have as an individual in a family case. Definitely looking forward to working with Rick again

Dave Ness

In my opinion, I was dissatisfied with the level of service provided by the Russell Alexander organization. Unfortunately, I rarely spoke directly with Russell himself. Instead, I dealt mostly with law clerks and while helpful, they were …

mellissa mcwilliams

Covid has been a nightmare within the court system, however Carolyn Warner has been amazing through this very difficult time. She is always there to answer any questions I have and go over documents that I don't understand. Carolyn and Christine are absolutely the best, they are always quick to respond to emails or phone calls and that truly puts my mind at ease.

Sarah Hall

My journey has been a long one with still a ways to go. I started this process a year and a half ago, with a previous lawyer, with not a lot of accomplishments. I changed to Susanna 3 weeks ago and have already accomplished more then I have in the previous year and a half. A temporary agreement was reached within that short time. Susanna knew that we were pressed for time and she worked countless hours to ensure all the i’s were dotted and t’s were crossed. She is very knowledgeable and skilled. She has a passion for what she does and it shows in her work. She Is easy to talk to and listens whole heartedly. We worked together to make the best agreement that worked for us and most importantly in my children’s best interest. I appreciate her time efforts, efforts and support.

Dockery Fike

Before I was referred to Russell Family Law, I hired some other firm which wasted time, never followed through or produced documents, and didn’t return my calls. I was devastated, but a good friend told me about Russell and at our very first meeting, I knew he was the right person to represent me. He did a spectacular job and I will always be grateful to him and the incredible staff he employs. Thanks, Russell and team for a job very well done.

I have watched Jason Isenberg work with Russell Alexander for several years now. He legal insights and judgment are unparalleled. Jason is a role model and mentor for all the lawyers at this firm. His analysis is always spot on. And when trial Judges’ disagree, Jason’s argument and positions are often confirmed by the Appellant Courts. I have no hesitation recommending Jason and Russell or any of the other terrific team members at this firm. It is no wonder that Canada’s national newspaper, the Globe and Mail, have recognized Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers as one of the best law firms in Canada for 2022. Congratulation guys.

Booking a consultation with the intake team was easy and straight forward. Communication was quick and I was able to obtain a consultation very quickly with Susanna Crichlow. Before the call had even happened I was impressed with the forms and information that was requested before the call. I was very happy to learn that Susanna took the time prior to the call to read over them. It automatically made me feel like my matter was important. The call was extremely helpful, Susanna is a very compassionate listener and person. She made me feel heard and supported even though this was just a consultation. My family law matter has been very overwhelming and Susanna definitely helped to put some of my anxiety at easy. I strongly recommend booking a consultation with this firm and Susanna in particular if you have any family law questions and are searching for a lawyer.

Erika Koeder

The entire experience with the office of Russell Alexander from the very beginning exceeded my expectations. I was blown away by the amount of detail and information requested during the online intake form. This was a great thing because it made me think of things I may not have thought of to mention and also helped me prepare for the call. The phone meeting with Bill Rogers was also exceptional.

After much consideration, I chose collaborative divorce as an alternative to the traditional court process. It was a relief to be in the hands of someone who was competent in his abilities. My lawyer was able to mediate the situation so that both parties reached an acceptable agreement. Now I can move on with my life. I am very pleased with the advice and services I received.

An extremely professional outfit. People always post about general business jargon and I feel this isn’t heartfelt so I will switch my topic of review to my experiences with a particular individual. Kaitlyn S was not only attentive and detailed oriented to my case but I felt like when I was with her I was with family. I would highly recommend this firm and if you could be so lucky as I was to have the pleasure of being helped by Kaitlyn I wouldn’t miss the chance to do so again…..other then the circumstances.

Throughout the duration of my time with her, I have always been very impressed at her professionalism both in the court room and outside. She has always provided me with sound advice and assisted me in understanding and navigating a very complex legal system. What I appreciate most about Susanna is that she cares about her clients cases and works tirelessly on them. I’ve never felt like a $ sign to her. I’ve always felt valued and that she understands how important my case is to me and those that I love. She understands her clients are real people and that what happens in court can have lifelong implications. I’ve come to learn that this is a responsibility she doesn’t take lightly. I have and will continue to recommend her services to anyone going through the family court system.
