Reviews of Tarnowecky Law Professional Corporation (Notary Public)

Karen Matthey

Ivanna Tarnowecky and her team do a fantastic job. They are very professional, efficient and communicative. I enjoy working with their team.

Scott Morrison

Excellent service, good price. Less expensive than what you'll pay the real estate agents 10 times as valuable.

April Wallace

Very efficient and would highly recommend!

Kelley Hineman

Dean Magee

Very friendly and helpful staff

Randi Tolles

We used Tarnowecky Law to purchase our first home. The communication was poor from staff and when issues appeared in our home they told us "buyer be aware." Felt like we might as well have burned the money we paid them because it was not worth the money. For first time home buyers I highly recommend spending the extra money on a lawyer who will support you through this purchase.

Nancy Spangenberg

Lovely staff. Professional service. Ivanna was informative and the rates very reasonable. My house sale closed easily.

Jordan McGregor

Ivanna and Yuri are awesome. Highly recommend them to anyone needing a good lawyer.

Mat Clancy

Best real estate lawyers in Kingston. Hands down.

Mel K

We bought and sold our house with them. They were amazing and extremely patient with the ever changing military relocation directives! The staff were really keen and always supportive, weve been posted a couple times and by far this was the easiest firm Ive dealt with.

Paulanne Peters

Super efficient....as always.

David Adams

I've dealt with Ivana and Yuri himself a few times now both of them are very personable. I would highly recommend. They are quick and efficient. They are also very thorough in their disclosure and explanation. Their staff could use a little bit of soft skills training just a bit. But Ivanna and Yuri themselves are amazing to deal with. The boss lady and her father is a father and daughter team. They specialized real estate transactions. it seems that they've been in business and quite establish for quite some time now being second generation at this point I just can't tell you how long.

Gord Barbeau

Eric Kociuk

Excellent experience with Ivanna Tarnowecky, Meghanne and the rest of the team. Ivanna went above and beyond with helping us resolve a matter prior to closing. Highly recommend using this firm for a smooth close.

Jamie Rickard

They were very good during the process of selling and buying our new home.

Mike Tennyson

They helped us out with our recent house purchase. They discovered an error on the listing and we backed out the the deal saving us huge headaches and 10's of thousands of dollars. We then found another property which closed without issue. Couldn't have been happier with the service and the rates are very competitive

Troy Gillard

Sold my house with these guys. Quick, efficient no issues and price was right. Will definitely be using again.

Tim Donovan

Have used them in the past happily, but things are changing over time and their new systems are impersonal and their phone people and secretarial are not informed and do not provide the service this form used to provide...form letters and limited in their responses. They are no sure who will do your work anymore or what or when you will be contacted. If you want personal service, this is not the place.

Lisa Gurran

I'm happy with the legal service I received from Ivanna. I didn't have any issue and the pricing was good. Very responsive to my request for a quotation and to my emails during the relevant period.

Matthew Fry

Great as always. Highly recommended.

Doug Lee

L Murphy

Best Law Firm and Lawyers in Canada. Used Ivanna and Yuri for personal, business and real estate matters and everytime it went smooth. Would highly recommend Tarnowecky Law!

Mike Green

Besides appearing to be extremely pleased with himself, Mr. Tarnowecky seems to be quite content living in the last century. Didn't seem to be aware of electronic funds transfer. In my brief experience with him , he was condescending to the point of being rude. Fine plumage though.

Sandra Connors

They are fantastic. This is the second time I've used their services. They are always very friendly and knowledgeable. Very easy transaction, selling and buying houses. They are very quick at what they do, very precise. And the best part, they do not overcharge you. They are one of the better priced in town. And you certainly get a lot for what you pay for. Perfect combination fantastic service and they don't take your front teeth at the door :) I highly recommend them.

I had a terrible experience with this law firm. I work with them on purchasing a property. I never have seen more ignorant, unprofessional and irresponsible service to customer. I am a university professor and have an extremely busy schedule. Working with Tarnowecky Law firm has been unnecessarily time consuming. Their legal assistant, who I worked with, was not knowledgeable and/or experienced. For a simple routine purchase paper work I have sent tens of emails and tens of phone calls. First of all, they assigned a legal assistant for my case but kept changing the assistant. Only a week before the closing date, and only after I sent several emails and made several phone calls, they set an appointment time for signing the documents and sent me the statement of adjustments and fund summary for my purchase. I submitted the bank draft matching with the amount stated in the fund summary to the firm but, only two business days before the closing date, they sent me an email and informed me that they made mistake in the statement of adjustments and fund summary and I need to pay extra $4,300 before the closing date. The next incident was when I made my final walkthrough the just a day before closing as it was scheduled, but found about 80% of promises in our agreement with the sellers not done. My real estate agent contacted the sellers’ agent and they said they will get it done before the closing. It was my first time purchase of any property in Canada so I contacted the lawyer and informed them and asked if I can be granted another walkthrough in the morning, before the closing. They sent me an email and confirmed that I was granted another walkthrough. The time was set so I went to the property and waited out of house in the street for a while before I was informed by my real estate agent that the sellers’ lawyer did not allow another walkthrough. I contacted my lawyer and found out that she was out of office so we waited for an hour in front of property and made few more phone call to finally be told that my legal assistant made mistake and I can not have another walkthrough. Total waste of time! The, next incident was when I ask their office to send me binder including all the paperwork related to the sale which naturally I should receive within a week or two after the closing date but they did not provide it to me till a month after the closing date. After making few phone calls finally they told me they will leave the binder at front desk and I can pick it up anytime after a certain time and date. I went there a day after the provide date for picked up but the documents were not ready and I end up waiting for 45 min in the waiting room during pandemic when any unnecessary contact should be avoided. Another incident was when the sellers’ lawyer sent an official request to Tarnowecky Law firm, so that the sellers can stop by in the property to seal the holes they made somewhere in the roof, I agreed with their request by replying the firm’s email but never heard back. There were several heavy rains and I could not locate the holes in the roof so I called Tarnowecky Law firm by phone but my first call was hanged up by the legal assistant without even a word. I called again and when finally she answered the phone, she was not even aware of my emails. I asked her to let the sellers’ lawyer know about permission and ask if the sellers can not make time to come for repair the roof at least let me know where the holes in the roof are so I can take care of those myself. She told me that she will but I never heard back from her. After many calls and talk with their management, their lawyer got back to me a few days later. Overall, in such a short term interaction and for such a simple case, I had awful experience with Tarnowecky Law firm, they made too many mistakes, and their ignorance and lack of professionalism make the worst example of a law firm. I have and will let all my friends and real estate agents who I know in person, know about their service, do not refer the client to them and avoid working with them.

Robert Kucharski

Very quick and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.

C.C. Pinkoski

This group is awesome. From the front staff who greet you to the assistants and lawyers. Nothing but positive to say about this business. They were polite, friendly and still very professional. On each appointment they have been quick, and thorough and on time. They clearly want to help you and it shows. Their fees are absolutely reasonable. I highly recommend this law firm and will continue to use their services for myself and family. Cannot say enough good about them. ????????????????

Kevin Touchbourne

Secretary was amazing. Lawyers and aid Not personable, lacking customer service skills.

Dieter Schedler
