How we check listings
Last updated: 22 October 2026
1. Where listing details come from
Each lawyer's name, role, office address, practice areas and short description come from their profile on the firm's own website. Every profile links to that source page, marked "Source profile". We don't list virtual or appointment-only offices.
2. The law society check
Lawyers in Canada are licensed by the law society of their province. Before a lawyer is added, we look them up on that law society's public directory, and only list them if the entry is found. Each profile shows the date of the check.
- Ontario: Law Society of Ontario's Lawyer and Paralegal Directory
- British Columbia: Law Society of British Columbia's Lawyer Directory
- Alberta: Law Society of Alberta's Lawyer Directory
- Saskatchewan: Law Society of Saskatchewan's public directory
- Manitoba: Law Society of Manitoba's Lawyer Lookup
- Nova Scotia: Nova Scotia Barristers' Society's lawyer search
- New Brunswick: Law Society of New Brunswick's Lawyer Search
- Newfoundland and Labrador: Law Society of Newfoundland and Labrador's Lawyer Directory
- Prince Edward Island: Law Society of Prince Edward Island's lawyer directory
A listing is a snapshot — lawyers move firms and their status can change — so please check the lawyer on the law society directory yourself before you hire them.
3. What we don't publish
- We don't publish star ratings, reviews or testimonials, and we never write them ourselves.
- No "best" or "top-rated" badges. We don't rank lawyers by quality.
- Years of experience only when the firm publishes the call-to-the-bar year; otherwise "Not published".
- No one can pay to appear or to be shown higher.
4. Legal facts on our pages
Legal facts on our Canadian pages — time limits, taxes, which court or tribunal handles what — are read on official provincial and federal sources. The province pages were last checked on 4 October 2026, and the land transfer tax calculator shows the date its rates were checked. If a figure can't be confirmed on an official source, we leave it out. Nothing on the site is legal advice.
5. Reporting a mistake
If you spot something wrong, email lawvoo12@gmail.com with the page link and we'll check it and correct it. Lawyers can update or remove their listing at any time.
