Reviews of Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP (Attorney)

Jessica James

I recently used dbm law for my separation and got the privilege of working with Quinn Fuglestveit and Danielle McCullough. I can not recommend them enough, they took what was easily the worst time of my life and made it into something more bearable. I met with another lawyer from a different firm prior to meeting with Quinn and I felt so belittled and like another number. That was not the case at dbm. Quinn is extremely personable and I immediately felt like my case mattered. With his knowledge and attention to detail and overall pride in his work, we were able to reach an amazing settlement in such a short time.

I have worked with Chris Bacon &Joanne Coglon for over three years and have been treated with high level of professionalism. Mr. Bacon got me the best settlement. I have referred them to two of my friends and both had the similar experiences. Jason Farzinpour

Don Drysdale is my dad's estate lawyer. Since my dad's passing, he has been assisting/ guiding me through the probate process. He is knowledgeable and friendly.

Michelle Shepherd

Sharene, Marc, Shawna and the rest of the team were wonderful to work with - thorough, honest and straightforward, as well as constantly looking out for my best interest. Perhaps most of all, I'm so thankful for the team being able to successfully close a file that had been in progress for 8 years so I could move on. Would wholeheartedly recommend to friends and family!

Ryan Paley

Sharene Orstad and her team took a very stressful situation and made it extremely manageable. Sharene & her team were very easy to deal with and always made me aware of everything happening with my claim. We reached a settlement just before my case was to go to court. I would highly recommend the team of Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP.

Prop Master

Great service, helped me get on the road to recovery by getting services paid for and a successful, fair resolution to my case.

Naz Mansourian

I am so grateful DBM was recommended to me following my accident. The team were highly professional, very knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Chris Bacon worked on my case, even reaching out on weekends and holidays. Joanne Coglon was very kind and helpful throughout, available when any issues came up along the way. All in all, a very good experience, and would highly recommend

Lisa Ireland

Amazing firm. I worked with Joseph, Andrea, Alexa, and Alex on my Personal Injury Claim which was complex because of pre-existing health issues. They were responsive, thorough, and attentive. This is in addition to being very knowledgeable. I felt very prepared for every step of my claim. I HIGHLY recommend this team!

Daniel Abdenour

I give this a 5 star rating because Chris and Cassandra where very easy to deal with. They helped me get the treatment that I needed from my MVA in 2016, aswell as settle my case smoothly. Thank you DBM Law.

Julie Cave White Rock Iron Products Ltd.

I hired Sharene to deal with a complicated estate matter and found that she works very hard for her clients. She is very knowledgeable and trustworthy and I would recommend her to any of my family and colleagues. I wish to thank Sharene for all her hard work in getting this matter resolved. N Friesen

Kristina Bell

Chris and his team at DBM are a professional group that know their stuff. Thanks again for your support!

Dirk Rohde

The staff were professional and friendly. With the multitudes of documents that were required to be signed, everything was clearly explained and all forms were pre-filled so that I only needed to sign. I'd be happy do return to DBM for any future dealings.

Shelley Wamboldt

I was going through a difficult time and had to sell my house. Laura Holland and her staff were very kind, considerate and helpful. No question was too silly or idiotic. They helped me through a difficult time and I was able to purchase again. I did not hesitate to use them for my purchase as well and received the same excellent treatment! I would not hesitate to refer anyone in need of a conveyancing firm, to Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP. A big thank you to Laura, Candice and their amazing staff!!

Jeremy Kyle

Drysdale Bacon McStravick are fantastic! Laura Holland and the conveyancing department have been exceptional during the purchase and sale of many of my clients' homes (including my own) taking the time to answer questions quickly and thoroughly. They are quality people who make you feel like you are a person rather than a number. Most importantly, Laura and her team are amazing at what they do and have consistently gone above and beyond their duty to make sure that the home sale and purchase process are seamless. You cannot go wrong in choosing Laura and her team.

Lola Petrovic

Chris Bacon worked on my case. He took the time to answer any of my questions even when he was on vacation he put my needs first. Not only did he win me an amount which would cover current fees for medication and therapy but he also considered my future care. I also was personally in contact with his assistant Rebecca who always made sure I was doing okay and checking up on my current health. Overall this firm is well rounded and every contact that I made was sure to answer all my questions and all my needs were met. If your looking for someone who's going to take good care of your needs and offer you legal advice DBM Law can offer you that. Strongly recommend!

Wuffle Delivery

Through a long four years of work, I was helped and prompted through every step of the way. Chris and Nimisha were a great help and were always very clear about the process, benefits, and disadvantages of any situation. I'm very thankful to have worked with such an experienced team, and would not hesitate to do so again if ever required.

Susan Cameron Realtor Coldwell Banker

It takes a team to help navigate unchartered territory and that’s precisely what Chris Bacon and his team at DBM Law provided. Chris represented my case file after two MVA’s. I could not be happier. I was provided with clear, precise updates throughout the process and consistently guided throughout my journey. I was kept on top of the details along the way and there were no surprises. Chris was realistic, accurate, and thoughtful. Chris, Alex, Cassandra, Joanne and Jayme always provided excellent, honest advice in a very timely manner. Having Chris and his team advocate for me with ICBC enabled me to focus on my recovery while reducing my stress level. I never felt pressured, and I always felt that Chris was working in my best interests. I’m a business owner who strives to provide exceptional service to my clients and when I’m dealing in other areas of business I look for the same exceptional service. Chris Bacon and the team at DBM Law delivered and for that I am very grateful. You will be too.

Katie Pystchula

Very please with Chris and Joanne's work, they were able to get me a great settlement and were patient following up with me. Would highly recommend to any friends or family.

Soon Kim

Friendly lawyers and reasonable fees

Lorelle Bremner

Very friendly and super helpful. It was my first time dealing with a lawyer and they were very understanding, explained all my options, and helped me get the best outcome after my car accident (I was a pedestrian who was struck)! Chris, Joanne and Nimisha were working on my case, and were all very efficient and made me feel comfortable and taken care of throughout the whole experience. I am so grateful to all of them!

Norbert Vajda

Sharene Orstad was my lawyer for a case of mine, she was very understanding and did everything she could to get me the best possible outcome for my case. If I had any problems or questions her and her team of paralegals would get back to me that day with an answer. I would highly recommend Sharene and the rest of the team at DBM

Ray Wong

3 years ago I sold and purchased a house. Through recommendations we went with DBM. I wouldn't recommend them to any of my friends or family or would go back for their services on my next house transaction. The lawyer assigned made many mistakes and even made a mistake on the rate he charged us. Although he did adjust the rate to the initial quoted rate afterwards. He's a professional lawyer and should have reviewed the documents properly. Buying and selling a house is a stressful and timely matter, in the end it all went through but the additional stress he cause us wasn't appreciated. Maybe if I were a higher dollar client they would have treated me differently, but who knows as I wont be going back. Have a great day and thank you for reading

Dallus Ferguson

Don Drysdale was my hero during the worst time of my life when my husband passed away suddenly. I would recommend him time and time again and will only use him for my family moving forward.

Charles

I was referred to this law office through a business contact. I had the opportunity to work with Nimisha for a small claims action that I am going through. Being my first small claims court action I was unsure of what to expect and had a flurry of emotions to go with it. Nimisha was great! She understood what was going on and was very supportive. She helped to reduce my fears and anxiety regarding the process and instructed me on what I could expect. She was available for follow up calls as well just to make sure I was on the right track with things and to continue to support me. I am very grateful to Nimisha for her help and support. It made such a positive difference having a professional that was familiar with the small claims process who was there to help and assist me. Thank you.

Arvin Khamseh

Richard and Donald have been super helpful when it comes to legal side of business. I was referred to them by my friend and I've already thanked my friend for the referral. Staff are always smiling, polite and with good energy. Appointments take place on time. Internal communication between their staff members is solid. It's awesome they have wifi available cause I usually run from one meeting to another and can get work done before and after my meetings. I drive about an hour to them because I like them. I recommend them! Ps: I already have recommended them to 2 other business owners.

Mike Stewart

Don Rocks!

Greg

Chris Bacon helped me with my personal injury claim with ICBC. His extensive experience in dealing with these cases was a huge help, even helping get me into an active rehab program that got me back to 100% and doing the sports and activities that I love to do. Chris and his paralegal Joanne were quick to respond to emails or phone calls and always made time to answer questions and explain the process. I highly recommend DBM to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Red Murphy

We had a condo sale with a issue, Don's team made it happen. Fantastic service, professional and direct. The service you hope a law firm would give.

Perry Vandergulik

I was nervous about filing a Wrongful Dismissal Suit against my former employer but Nimisha Hudda went through the whole process with me, explained the pro's and con's, and described the options I had. She was very helpful through the entire process and helped me understand my rights as an employee. Nimisha is extremely knowledgeable in employment law and got me a fair settlement, which I could never have gotten on my own. I would recommend Nimisha Hudda and her team, Jenna Thibodeau, Sydney Blaker, Nicole Cutler & Danielle McCullough, to anyone who feels they have been mistreated by their employer.

Hong Yee Tan

Thank you Mr. Andrew Peng and Ms. Sharene Orstad for helping out with my case!

Palle Pita

Very friendly staff. I worked with Mr. Bacon when I was injured in a car accident and him and his staff worked tirelessly to get me the settlement I deserved. I would definitely recommend them and use them again!

Anthony Do

I want to share the facts of my encounter: I chose Drysdale Bacon McStravick to be our Lawyers for the sale of our home AND our purchase of our new home one month prior to execution of completion dates. As of right now, I am writing at a week before completion date. I spoke to Abby to start, then next was Tanya, then next was Lewis. Once completion date was given to me at two weeks, I immediately let them know. I organized my affairs with my mortgage broker and Realtor to send all the documents. One week left, I am talking to a new person named Vanessa -- I receive an email that it is not sufficient amount of time because the bank I'm working with needs to provide a document that'll come Friday. Drysdale wanted to charge me fees, stating they needed to work over the weekend and it's too rushed for them(200+/per day). I asked for the exact full cost -- vague over the phone. I emailed regarding the cost -- no responsen about the cost but I'll be expecting to speak to the Lawyer, Richard soon. Richard didn't call me, so I phoned Richard, no response. Hours gone by, no response. I decided to have my mortgage broker look for another Law Firm that will take care of my purchase as a backup if they continue to not respond to my calls or emails, and Yes! I found one. Once, I switched lawyers, I finally received an email from Vanessa stating that she received a notification of a change of lawyer. If this is how you want to stress out near completion date then by all means. They have good reviews but I feel they have other priorities of importance than yours and was not a client focused team or system. I know they are busy because Drysdale(Tanya sent the email) whom wanted to reject my application when I emailed them back stating my completion date. They mentioned they were full and could not accept anymore application but because I sent mine many weeks ago, I was approved by them. After this negative experience, as an investor, I would not and will not recommend this company as most people want good communication and a smooth transition when dealing with paperwork. All the best to all.

Beverly Tyler

I am so glad I hired Joe McStravick & Joanne to represent me after 2 MVAs, neither of which were my fault. They kept me informed every step of the way & made a very stressful situation less so. I have recommended them to many people. I was very happy with the final outcome.

Nick

I had a great experiene with Drysdale Bacon Mcstravick. I was hit in an auto accident and Chris listened to everything I had to say and was a helpful ally against ICBC. He never pushed me to settle until I was ready and in the end (years later) helped me get a fair settlement. Joanne my paralegal was wonderful during the whole process and kept me informed about the status of my case, and kept on top of all the documents and anything that was needed so there was no surprises. Id recommend them to family or friends in need of representation. Thanks again guys.

April Christiansen

I found the process to be very thorough, smooth, and stress free. Joanne and Chris were both very kind and helpful. Chris and Joanne also kept me updated throughout the process of my motor vehicle claim, and contacted me frequently with updates. Overall, very good experience!

Lexi Verano-Bibby

I feel very grateful to have been represented by Joe McStravick. I was in a bad MVA and appreciated having the fluidity from emails to phone calls and the personal attention I got from Joe and his assistant Joanne Coglon, Paralegel. Joe was professional, kept me informed every step of the way and Joanne was so kind and personable. Thank you guys for all of your help.

Noellene Dulay

Chris and his team were awesome to work with! They were very patient with me with all my questions and any concerns I had. They always kept me updated with my case (rear-ended as a passenger). My family has been a long time clients of Chris' and he always made sure we were happy with the outcome. I would definitely recommend Chris and his team!

Anna Angotti

We, both my wife and I, were introduced to Sharene Orstad of Drysdale Bacon and McStravick on February 2014 after a car accident my wife was involved in. We found Sharene to be extremely knowledgeable, professional and very sensitive to our needs. We have been with Sharene almost 4 years and there is no question we are more than happy to recommend her, and her firm, to anyone. One on the main reasons we have been quite happy with her has been her positive attitude and her diligence in making us aware of both the pro and con of whatever direction we wanted to take. She constantly gave suggestions and advices making us feel comfortable and prepared for the next step. I must also recommend and praise the work of Shawna and Amy who, as Sharene’s team, worked alongside her in a very efficient and professional manner making our dealing with our lawyer a very enjoyable and effective one. We would like to thank Sharene and her team for the great work they have done for us, and we wish them the best for the New Year and beyond. Thank-you, Ralph and Grace

Noel Dulay

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you (Cris) and your team for all the care and concern you have shown me, and for working tirelessly on my case..I would definitely refer you to all my friends, relatives and colleagues that needs your services..

Gerry Gramek

I have been a professional Realtor in Vancouver for 24+ years, and for a significant number of those years Laura Holland has been one of my go-to lawyers throughout the conveyancing process. Laura has always gone the extra mile for all of my clients, and I hold her in very high regard. When I am mentoring new Realtors in our office, I always recommend that they utilize Laura and her team. Most recently, Laura was able to simplify and complete a complicated conveyancing process with clients who were literally on the move across several time zones. Bravo once again, Laura - thank you for your "open door" policy, doing whatever is needed to accomplish a smooth transaction for my clients.

Janine

Gave straight honest advise.

Jeff Garrett

I was getting lots of advice from concerned friends and colleagues with regards to my separation agreement received. I needed some proper legal advice from a labour lawyer before making any decisions or signing any papers. I received that advice from Nimisha Hudda at Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP. After two consultations with Nimisha, and some correspondence, I felt that I had done my due diligence and was armed with all of the information I needed to make a sound decision. Nimisha was thorough, helpful and always acted in my best interest. I was also made comfortable and warmly welcomed by the friendly staff at DBM with each visit. DBM is easy to get to and has free parking. I would highly recommend Nimisha and DBM for all legal matters and am happy to give them a 5 star rating!

Chris Heavenor

I was on the fence about hiring a lawyer regarding an injury sustained from a motor vehicle accident. I was quickly relieved once I had spoken with Mr. McStravick. He was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. I am pleasantly pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend this firm.

Diane

When my husband was let go from his job after 23 years we turned to DBM for help. Best decision ever! Nimisha and her colleagues were professional, understanding, realistic and accessible whenever we had questions and concerns. I have already recommended DBM to others and would go back if we ever needed legal help again.

SAC WCVM

My experience with DBM was as smooth and stress free as a law suit can be. Over the course of the last 5 years, the whole DBM team have been entirely diligent and efficient with all aspects of the case. Additionally, they really impressed me in terms of keeping me up to date with the progress of the case and accommodating my limited schedule (as I no longer live in BC)! Marc and Sharene were able to settle my matters without having the headache of going to trial, which I appreciated (although I know they would have been great had we needed to go to trial). Both lawyers were present for the mediation (which I really appreciated) and operated in perfect symbiosis with each other. Their personal work styles complimented each other perfectly - it truly was a pleasure to watch them work! Overall, I am relieved to have the case wrapped up, I am happy with the settlement, and absolutely blown away by the service at DBM. I will undoubtedly retain their services in the future and would highly recommend the law firm to anyone seeking legal representation! Sacha Malkowski

Benjamin Forsberg

I am very glad to have chosen Chris and his team to represent me as the entire process was made to be as stress free and as smooth as possible. I would definitely recommend their team of associates to my friends and family. Quick responses and easy contact made the experience as comfortable as possible. Thanks DBM Team!

Adventures Of Micah

Stay away from this firm. I hired Jayme Yamaguchi and the experience is more than disappointing. Even tried talking to a higher up and not once had a phone call returned. They'll take your money and all you'll get is lip service, nothing more. Jayme doesn't have the skills to fight a tragic ticket. Go back to working prosecution, you're no good at defense. Don't make the mistake I made, hire a qualified lawyer for your needs.

Jeff Chutskoff

Top shelf organization....enjoy my appointments with Don he keeps it plain and simple without all the Lawyer jargon.?..he always has an interesting story or two after business is done....

Mandy Hansen

Great service and excellent results

Steve Bolton

This Law firm is Top quality . They Handled my Late Father and Mothers estate in a very professional manner . I understand how stressful and complicated dealing with estate law is now . I would highly recommend Don Drysdale and his team of lawyers. Thank you !!

Karen Heinrich

Knowledgeable, friendly, great service!

Kristina Akester

I highly recommend Sharene to anyone seeking a lawyer for ICBC claims. She and her assistants, Shawna and Amy, are kind, professional, and easy to communicate with. She thoroughly prepared me for my examination for discovery and was reassuring preceding and throughout. In the unfortunate event I need representation in the future, she will be the first lawyer I call!

Alex Storie

Great service & excellent expierence level I there niche, first rate!!!!! ????????

Darrel Gelera

Chris Bacon was extremely thorough with the whole case and gave me exceptional advice regarding my motor vehicle accident claim. As a client he made me feel very important and I felt assured that my case was in good hands.

Ed Appleby

I had been trying to deal with my injury claim with ICBC by myself and managed to make a complete mess of it. I had not idea what I was doing and not only was I getting nowhere but followed some bad advice that made my injury and mental health issues worse. Chris and Joanne took my case and not only negotiated a decent settlement for me, but also got me the rehabilitation and counseling I needed to get back on my feet. I would highly recommend them.

Jenny L.

Guess it depends on who ends up with your file, but they soured my first home purchase experience. My lawyer actually told me that he didn't understand why he had to be there when I was signing my closing papers.

in the sun

I am quite confident that I would not have had close to the outcome I had with my ICBC settlement; if I had to go it alone. It was nice to work with Sharene and her team Shawna and Amy. Sharene is down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and was very patient with all my questions. She also offered and made it clear that I was able to meet with her as many times as I needed, in order for me to feel prepared, confident and well briefed before any interactions (i.e., discovery or ICBC's medical expert appointment). This was very important to me. I would fully recommend.

Omid Khosravi

Thank you Chris for all the work you have done for me I greatly appreciated it

Aazam Kassamali

I was extremely fortunate to have Nimisha Hudda help me after my accident. She was very pleasant to deal with and understood the pain and injuries I was experiencing. Though ICBC was very difficult to deal with, Nimisha's perseverance, knowledge and expertise made the settlement process extremely smooth. My experience overall with Nimisha and the rest of the team was above exceptional! -Thank you!

Ajay S

I’m really happy DBM was recommended to me following my accident. The team were highly professional, very knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Marcus and Sharene worked on my case, even reaching out on weekends and holidays. No email or question ever went unanswered. All in all, a very good experience, and would highly recommend the firm.

omar khan

Up most Professional lawyer with absolute class, and intelligence about all ICBC related matters. I recommend Chris Bacon advise to all.

Kristi Ferguson

Joe is a professional, effective, kind lawyer who gets results. I worked with him years ago when I was in a terrible MVA and he, and his team, made the legal part of that process bearable. More recently he assisted me with an estate issue. He gets things done. Joe communicates well and keeps you in the loop. Without any hesitation, I would highly recommend Joe to those seeking legal counsel.

Carrol Mayo

I had a wonderful experience with my lawyer Sharene Orstad at Drysdale Bacon Mc Stravick. She was professional yet personable in my dealings with her. She was a great representative for me in my dealings with ICBC. I was very happy with all the staff I dealt with in the firm as well. They were all very professional and courteous. I would highly recommend this firm.

Marta Pineda

My motor vehicle accident case was handled very professionally. They always kept me in the loop with how the case was going, and referred me to all the right specialists to look further into my injuries. I wasn't just another case to Drysdale Bacon, they genuinely treated me as their friend. Many thanks to Ms. Orstad and her team at Drysdale Bacon for getting me through difficult times.

Kristy Robinson

They handled our case so professionally! Definitely recommend this great team!!

M B

I received excellent service from Chris Bacon and his team. I had come to an impasse in dealing directly with ICBC. I could not get them to agree to a fair and reasonable settlement after almost two years. Within a few weeks Chris was able to get me that settlement and more. I am very satisfied with the amount and how quick and easy the process was. I recommend this company without hesitation. Many thanks, Mike

Danica Fletcher

My dealings with this firm have been wonderful. They were helpful, informative and efficient. We had our conveyance done for our first home purchase completed this summer with no problems at all. We were so impressed, we had our wills done there too. Their support staff is excellent and very well educated. I found Heather May to be most helpful and she streamlined the process of our file perfectly. Highly Recommend.

Mitch Donahue

Chris, Joanne and the rest of the team were extremely helpful after my family was in a accident. They made dealing with icbc stress free and got us a settlement we were happy with. I would recommend Chris and his team to anyone needing representation.

Mike Crouchill

Chris Bacon, Joanne and the whole team did an amazing job with my icbc claim. They were helpful, professional and did everything they could to make sure that I got the best results possible. I hope I'm never involved in another collision, but if I am my first call will be to Drysdale Bacon McStravic.

Claudia Cortez

Havin an ICBC claim can be very stressful. This has been a long process for me. I met Joe and he helped me stay calm and relaxed throughout the entire time. I'm thankful for all his hard work and efforts with my claim. Joe went above and beyond, even meeting me on his days off! His legal team was amazing and always willing to help. Thank you, Joe for heling me with my claim. I highly recommended Joe and his team for all legal services.

Megan Garrett

I went in to see about getting some help with my accident case back in January of 2015. I felt welcome and everyone was so kind and understanding. Its been a long process but at no point did I feel like I was out of the loop as to what was going on with my case. Joanne Coglon has always kept me as up to date as possible and even took the time to give me a quick call on her day off to answer a question. She was very helpful and patient with me. I also spoke with Chris Bacon and he was very helpful and considerate with me. Made me feel like he was truly on my side and there to help me. Vic Maan also assisted and was very patient while doing some intake with me. Overall a very pleasant experience dealing with this firm.

Natasha Jeshani

TAFA Consulting Corp values DBM Lawyers, especially their employment law division. Nimisha Hudda offers incredible support to her clients, is knowledgeable on the latest cases, and is able to respond quickly and efficiently. Having referred DBM on multiple occasions, the firm has always had excellent reviews and will be our firm of choice for all our legal matters!

Jessica

Experience was ok. I was more comfortable and confident about my case when I spoke to Chris Bacon directly. For the most part I dealt with Joanne and I found we had better communication via email rather than phone. Both are quite pleasant to deal with in person.

Anna Codrescu

Chris and his team made my claim so easy. They made sure I was taken care of, and that the whole process was as stress free as possible. Definitely recommend them!

mandeep dhaliwal

I would highly recommend Sharene Orstad and her team to any injured person who is having issues with ICBC. I am very satisfied that you kept me informed about my claim and that all my inquiries and concerns addressed by you Shawna and Amy. Sharene did a great job to prepare my case , help me to prepare in discovery and trial. She was successful to negotiate with ICBC for a fair settlement before the trial. I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Sharene!

Nick Stankov

Very pleased with DBM law. They always made sure I had all the information I needed and did a great job representing me.

Matt

Amazing to work with. Joseph Mcstravick has been handling my claim and I feel completely taken care of. Communication with his team has been a breeze and I'm confident I chose the right lawyer. Would definitely use again if/when needed.

Liane O'Grady

Experienced, Professional and Respectful! Sharene Orstad recently represented me on an ICBC claim. She has extensive civil litigation experience and provided me with expert advice all along the way. She developed a winning strategy in order to achieve the best outcome possible. I am pleased with and grateful for the results she achieved. I have also used Drysdale Bacon McStravick in the past for assistance with real estate transactions. I would highly recommend Sharene and the team at DBM.

Maureen Kelly

Thank you Joe McStravick, for support and guidance for ICBC accident . Staff members especially Andrea ,valuable member of this team . Kathleen Kelly .

Anca Dascalu

I had a positive experience with my ICBC claim, as it was handled in a very professional manner by Joe McStravick and Joanne, his paralegal. I would highly recommend their services!

Ian C

Chris, Mike and Joanne were excellent with my MVA claim. They kept in contact and provided me with updates with my claim. The transaction was smooth, which allowed me to concentrate on my recovery. Thank you Chris, Mike and Joanne. Great work!

judy taylor

I would like to thank Sharene and her team for all the work they have done for me in regards to my ICBC claim. They were a pleasure to deal with and very personable. I would recommend them to anyone who needs legal representation. Thanks again!

Tara Cowie

Terrible lawyer. Very little communication. Told me out of the blue they were meeting with icbc and were going to settle, I said I was still injured though. They told me if I didn't settle their percentage taken would go up and I didn't feel confident they would make that up considering I I rarely got a reply from them. I didn't realize that I could have fired them and gotten a new lawyer... because I've never been in this situation before. They knew I was still waiting on a long waitlist for an mri. Had they waited they would have found out I had a massive tear in my hip and would need surgery to repair it. 6 years post accident I'm still waiting for that surgery... pain every day but im a mother of 3 and I can't stop my life so im working and living in pain every day. They were not fighting for me and they should be ashamed they took a cut of the pitiful amount icbc paid when I was 100% not at fault and the driver was charged with dangerous driving at the scene. I still pay out of pocket for physical therapies just to be able to do my job still and regardless am in pain. Im only 34 years old and my life was forever changed 6 years ago... . Their lack of care and wanting to make a quick buck is appalling. I'll never forgive them for making money off my pain and not even fighting for me.

Ed

Such a great experience working with this law firm. Really professional, extremely fast and clear communication. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommend!

wendy Boyle

Sharene, shawna and the rest of the team where excellent people to work with. I would highly recommend their firm to others needing a lawyer.

Lazy Tusch

Sanz Gonzales

This is my first time experience here in Canada that we have such a lawyer and a kind and understanding one that really is in serious business to attend to our icbc matters. Bottom line is Atty Chris Bacon is Fantastic...million thx Sir.

AXIS CAMERAS

Matthew W

What can I say, just an average law firm. I did however receive a gift card for my earlier review which is very tacky and low. Shame on you. Beware of the reviews as almost all these 5 star reviews are with users with only 1 other review aka paid reviews

Yafit Foster

Had a great experience working with Chris, Nimisha, and Joanne. They were very knowledgeable and handled my case with great care and compassion. I would highly recommend their services and I was very pleased with my settlement.

Beng Manto

Mr Chris Bacon was recommended to me by a friend when I got into a motor vehicular accident last Mar 2015 . Mr.Bacon and his colleagues have been so nice,helpful and attentive with my case. I didn't feel left hanging and guided me throughout the process, from filing a case ,treatment and recovery until my settlement with ICBC. I won't be hesitated to recommend Mr. Chris Bacon to anybody who might be needing his utmost service.

Worst Lawyer firm ever. They anounce lower professional fees than other firms but you get what you pay. Their client service is poor and employes are very rude and uptight. They have hidden fees and do not provide you any paper work until is too late and have charged you bank account. Honestly, next time, I would rather paying a bit more but getting the service and respect that a client deserves.

In my professional career I have worked with dozens of lawyers. I was very pleased with the friendly service from Sharene Orstad and her colleagues at Drysdale Bacon McStravick. The attention to detail was very reassuring. The service was outstanding. This included timely responses to my communications and attending to my matters during evenings, weekends and other time off. Sharene was very efficient and effective with respect to the results associated with my particular matters, It is always nice when your objectives are actually achieved. Overall, I am very pleased and would not hesitate to recommend Sharene Orstad and Drysdale Bacon McStravick to my family and friends.

I would like to thank everyone at DBM for their hard work in helping me after my car accident. Everyone was very friendly and hard working to make sure the process was as easy as possible for me. I would not hesitate to use DBM in the future for any legal matters, nor would I hesitate to recommend DBM to anyone looking for legal advice.

I was referred to Mr. Chris Bacon and his team by friends who have been injured in car accidents. With this being my first injury claim, working with Mr. Bacon was pleasant. His team was always in touch and kept me up to date all the way from my consultation, throughout my recovery, and until my settlement. They reply promptly, they are professional, and listen to your concerns. I would recommend him and his team to others.

From my first meeting with Joe McStravick, and throughout the whole process, I was made to feel well looked after. Joe and Joanne reassured me that DBM would deal with all the details so I could focus on recovering and getting healthy. Any questions or concerns I had were always dealt with promptly and compassionately. In the end I was very happy with the settlement DBM negotiated for me and would not hesitate to recommend the DBM Law team to anyone needing legal services. Very thankfully, Dave Pears

Joe and his team were FANTASTIC to work with! I was put at ease the moment the process started- all of my questions were answered in a timely manner and I felt totally looked after. Any time I had a concern or needed clarification for anything- someone from their team responded within 48 hours. From start- finish everything ran smoothly. I'm so grateful for Joe and his assistants. Andrea was my main contact and always made me feel comfortable when I was unsure of things. I appreciated their patience with me and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. Definitely would use Joe again (hopefully I won't need to though!) Thank you Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP.

I am exceptionally pleased with DBM. My claim was complicated, but Chris Bacon and his team (especially Joanne) were able to untangle it all in my favour. They provided sincere advice, clear options and potential outcomes for me to make the final decisions. I highly recommend DBM!

At a very difficult time I was lucky enough to have Nimisha's expertise and advise. She provided me with all of my options and choices. A very professional team that I felt was very knowledgeable. Questions were all answered in a very timely fashion and things were handled quickly. I could not have had a better team to help me through an unpleasant and trying situation. Would not hesitate to recommend DBM to friends and colleagues.

Lydia Dani

I had nothing but great experiences with Chris Bacon, Joanne Coglon, and other people in his team from this law firm. They were very helpful, informative, and professional from day 1 until I reached my settlement. And just like in any other dealings, I expected good service but they surely know how to deliver more.

I highly recommended Sharene Orstad and her team at DBM for the legal advise and representation. She is very detail and would go extra mile to defend her client (myself) for what she think it's fair. I was very pleased with the process (from consultation to information gathering) and the good result.

I got in a MVA June 2017 and I went to Chris Bacon for assistance with my ICBC claim. he is very down to earth and easy to talk to, no questions asked I hired him! I am so happy that I did. Him and his staff Alex, Jayme and Cassandra were amazing to deal with and always got back to me in a timely manner whenever I had questions in regards to my claim. Chris looked out for my best interest and didn't settle until i was 100% happy with the outcome. I would recommend Chris Bacon and his team to anyone looking for an ICBC lawyer.

Drysdale Bacon McStravick was an absolutely amazing law firm to deal with on the purchase of my very first home!! Candice Sifert and the rest of the conveyance team explained every aspect of the transaction so thoroughly for me and made me feel really comfortable with this big purchase in my life. I would recommend this team to anyone needed good legal representation. Great people, great prices and AMAZING service!!! I will definitely be using them again in the future.

Good lawyers.

Sharene Orstad took over my ICBC case after my previous lawyers had done nothing but wait for a payout for over 4 years. Ms Orstad and her team made things happen. I was referred for assessment with professionals and negotiations were started to settle my claim. There was a lot of communication between myself and her office, so I was always aware of everything happening with my claim. We reached a settlement just weeks before my case was to go to court. I would most definitely use her services again, but hope I never have to do so.

Chris and Joanne were professional and informative during my case and made sure I received the treatment I needed to best deal with my pain.
