Drysdale Bacon McStravick LLP

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 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.

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.

I had a short session with Alexander, who is clear, precise and resourceful. The interaction is very professional and the result is beautiful.

I may be premature posting this as I am still a client, but they have been with me through a case that seems never-ending. I have gone through a host of trials and tribulations... from having a baby, building a business, moving family homes, the death of an expert in the case to a termultuous divorce (they are not working on this)....oh yeah, and COVID! Ultimately, we are nearing an end to this relationship and as much of a high maintenance client as I've been, they have stuck it out, worked really hard and meticulously. I would definitely recommend this firm. There is a professional, yet personal touch about them. I've felt and still do feel that I am in good hands and I am content with whatever decision the courts make and that's a good feeling at the end of the day.

I did not hire this lawyer, my sister did, so I had no choice, Don Drysdale was our Estate lawyer and I found that he was condescending put down and also his staff.Front desk and his assistant, I did argue with Don on the phone once and then he never did get back to me whenever I emailed him, I would get his assistant getting back to me, lolI guess I scared Don, or just knew that I would talk back to him.Too bad, that is why you got big money paid to you for nothing.I felt they all lied to me if Don was not there, saying Don is on holidays or away from the office.Because I think Don did not want to talk to me. Whenever I emailed them before, I never got my answers from I do not know how many questions I asked and I would get just a small one sentence answer back from Don. Blunt very Blunt answer, just one small few words and then at the end they sent my mail to the old home. Instead of reading my whole message which they never did, they just brushed me off as usual.Wow, thanks to everyone for a crummy experience and getting paid alot of money on top of all this.I hope this office closes down. Rude and greedy. That is exactly what Don Drysdale and staff are!!!!

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!

My family found Don Drysdale's lawyers' office prior selling our house. I sold my house during Christmas time when it was a busy season. Steven Bercek was available to help us , he was very professional , friendly and detailed .Our deal was special , needed lots of details back and forth with the buyer's lawyer, every time Steven will call me for the newest update.On the completion day, lawyer's office sent the carrier after 3 pm to deposit the money, the second day, he called me to follow up, it turned out the bank's teller made a mistake , he personally went to the branch again and fixed it for us. That made us worry free. We were very happy with Steven Bercek and this lawyer's office .

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.

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
