Dan Macdonald from Family Law was a realist—he knew what was worth fighting for, saving me unnecessary stress and legal fees.



I was in the midst of a very challenging and emotionally charged separation and divorce. There were constant conflicts, lies, and police interventions, which left me feeling confused and unable to process the situation appropriately. My ex-wife was highly vindictive, using our three children as pawns, and I needed a law firm that could navigate these turbulent waters with me.

I found the Family Law Group through a simple Google search for family lawyers near me in London, Ontario. After reading several positive reviews, I decided to give them a call. My initial interaction with the firm was with Dan Macdonald. I felt a sense of reassurance and support. The staff, including clerks and paralegals, were incredibly communicative, prompt, and always accommodating, making me confident in my choice.

The first consultation with Dan was straightforward and laid-back. He took the time to listen to my story without any pretense, establishing a strong trust foundation between us. Although the retainer process was a financial burden, as expected with legal services, Dan and his team were very understanding and accommodating.

Throughout the five years I worked with the Family Law Group, I was continually impressed by their professionalism and thoroughness. Dan's approach was always realistic and practical. He knew what was worth fighting for and what wasn't, saving me unnecessary legal fees and emotional stress. His ability to stay calm and composed, even when I was frustrated, showed his depth of character and integrity.

Working with the firm was remarkably easy and straightforward. Despite living in a small town on the outskirts of London, they facilitated communication efficiently. Whether it was through emails, phone calls, or in-person meetings, it was clear that they prioritized my case and well-being. The support staff was always pleasant and helpful, which added to the positive experience.

Dan's personality really stood out during our interactions. He was not just my lawyer but also a source of emotional support. He genuinely cared about my situation, often expressing heartfelt apologies for the injustices I faced. Despite the system's and COVID-19 challenges, Dan remained steadfast, offering legal and moral support.

Communication with the firm was timely and effective. They promptly responded to my queries, sometimes within hours. 

In terms of results, while the outcome was not entirely in my favour, it was through no fault of the Family Law Group. The legal system has its limitations, but Dan ensured every possible effort was made to achieve the best outcome. Financially and emotionally, their support was priceless, allowing me to navigate the post-separation phase with greater clarity and stability.

Overall, the Family Law Group treated me with compassion and respect during one of the most challenging periods of my life. They didn't see me as just another client but as a person who needed guidance and support. I wholeheartedly recommend the Family Law Group to anyone facing a similar situation. Their expertise, compassion, and steadfast support make them an excellent ally in navigating family law disputes.
