I was let go by a former employer due to work shortage and while the severance seemed reasonable at first glance, it was less than what I deserved.I reached out to Barr Charles Osuji and he was very professional and forthwith with me. Letting me know my options and the possibilities of litigation, and suggestions as to the best approach.I love the fact that he wasn't just all about the money, he was truly interested in getting me a fair deal. This was a surprise to me and I got a better severance package than initially offered. Hands down one of the best consultation fees I've ever paid.So when you get a severance package, please contact a lawyer before accepting it. You might be leaving good money on the table.Overall, it was a satisfactory experience.

Ms. Lucy Daile Mewanu of Osuji & Smith Law Firm is a profound lawyer with an exception. Her professionalism in family law is excellent . Thank you Ms.Lucy for the way you handled my case.

I want you to also know that your patience and empathic nature is very soothing to a client like me.

Very impressed by the team and would highly recommend to anyone looking to purchase or sell their homes.

Osuji & Smith are the best in the business. I worked with Ibrahim while purchasing my property and he was so helpful. He was always there to provide support and guidance every step of the way and I was never worried about not having sufficient knowledge because Ibrahim will always make sure I had a great understanding of every document signed, and every note sent. The firm apparently holds a culture of meticulousness very dearly and I’m grateful for that!

I recently faced a precarious situation when my employer unexpectedly changed my shift and position, only to recommend a voluntary resignation later. Feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about my rights, I sought the legal expertise of Barrister Charles Osuji. From the outset, he was a guiding light in the fog of employment uncertainties.Charles exhibited unparalleled professionalism and a profound understanding of employment law. From our initial consultation, he took the time to meticulously analyze the details of my case, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the nuances surrounding my situation. He immediately instilled confidence by articulating a clear strategy to address my concerns and protect my rights.Throughout the process, Charles demonstrated exceptional open communication skills, which provided clarity and reassured me that I was in capable hands. He advocated for my rights and suggested how I could negotiate with my employer to secure a resolution. He responded when I sought his attention after office hours. Simply put, he was there whenever I needed him.I thank him immensely for his support, guidance, unwavering commitment to justice and dedication to securing a favourable outcome in my situation. Charles is an invaluable asset for anyone facing employment-related legal challenges. I highly recommend him to anybody needing legal guidance or representation in employment law.

Huge thanks to Charles, Christie and team at Osuji & Smith. They are both extremely knowledgeable and very professional individuals. I contacted their firm when got treated unfairly by one of my previous employers which made me go through one of the toughest times in my life and I suffered through a lot of mental stress but not only they helped me to get justice in this situation but also helped me cope with my depression with their kindness, empathy and encouragement. When contacted their firm regarding the situation, I was really unsure how to get justice in this extremely unfair situation my employer made me go through , after years of loyalty and hard work towards the company, but Christie, Charles and Shikha provided me great advices and guidance to help me get best possible outcomes in this matter. Highly recommend Osuji & Smith lawyers for your legal matters and also encourage those who get treated unfairly to fight back always because the one have done nothing wrong should never get punished and no one should get away from how they treated others…Thanks again Charles , Christie and team, very much appreciated your support 👏

I used Osuji&Smith law for sales of my property. Ibrahim oversaw the legal part of selling my house. Everything went seamlessly from the start to the end. He explained everything to me and that helped answer all of my questions before I had an opportunity to ask them (and I mean that). He is very quick to reply messages and readily available to take your calls. Takes his work very seriously. I will recommend using Osuji and Smith law. The fees were also reasonable.

A couple of years ago, not being happy with how our lawyer in a labor case was treating us, we contacted Charles for a consultation. He was very professional & heard what we had to say. While he advised us the case was too far along to change lawyers, he helped us to understand what was going on. He also gave us enough of a ballpark range on the possible settlement that we ended up settling for a significant amount more than our actual lawyer wanted us to settle for. Wish that we had connected with Charles far sooner. My wife said the hour consultation fee was the best money we ever spent.

I very much appreciated Charles Osuji's wisdom on my employment issue, and that he clearly explained the legal issues and was honest with me that I really didn't have a case given the time that passed or the scale of provable loss. It was refreshing compared to attorneys I have dealt with years ago that would have pursued a case in vain solely to be able to bill. his integrity impressed me.

I highly recommend Osuji & Smith for everyone. They helped me to win the custody battle of my 2 kids to get them out of a very violent environment that was never good for them. Its just like one big family. My Lawyer Lucy- Mewanu Mensah was so concerned about my kids . She always told me that no child deserves to grow in abusive environment. She guided me from the first day Charles Osuji appointed her to represent me in the custody of my kids.She is so humble, intelligent, smart, and diligent. She actually knows what she is doing. She did not offer me false hopes just to get my money but told me what i will mostly like get at the end of the case. At the end of the case, we won and the kids have been removed from this very bad environment to be with me in a safe place.You can't get it better anywhere else.There is a reason why they are always ranked as one of the best in the country.

I highly recommend using this firm for all your legal needs. I retained them to sue my former employer after I was unlawfully terminated after 9 years of dedicated service. It was an extremely traumatic experience for me. My former employer and their defense team were extremely difficult to deal with, they fought against the lawsuit HARD. But in the end they were no match for the team at Osuji and Smith. I got the settlement I deserved, and more importantly to me , I received Justice. The process was very stressful at times for me , but I got nothing but poised professionalism from my Lawyer Amanda Ovaici, she is a true professional. I knew through the whole process that I was in good hands and had chosen the right firm.

Times can be rough for anyone and sadly in my personal experience, those closest to you can be the least interested in our sufferings. I have had an extremely difficult past few years and I can say honestly there are genuine, compassionate, caring individuals that are total strangers that are rebuilding my joy in living again. There are definitely a few I do want to publicly acknowledge as my "personal hero's" and will be forever grateful for your genuine humanity coming first. It started with the very first conversation with Charles that I knew, I had a met a sincere, kind person that was willing to have my back, a complete stranger. Justin, David, Sarah and every member of the firm. It really is and has been an honour and I will be forever grateful to each and everyone for being my hero's. Cheers. Stay well. 🫵👌

I reached out to Charles Osuji after carefully reading his reviews here and having other lawyers tell me to not bother and just search for another job. After the first meeting, I decided to hire Osuji and Smith go represent me in a case of constructive dismissal. My former employer made what you would describe as a lengthy, complicated process, which led to a wrongful dismissal case and a counter claim. Charles and his team were very supportive throughout this anxious process. To have someone attack your integrity is a hard mental toll. My team of lawyers ensured to explain me all the procedure and the possible outcome. As a Managing Partner, Charles was always involved in the case, responding to my emails and phone calls. That alone is a sign of respect, professionalism and devotement. The team ended up Clairenegotiating a good outcome that represented my interests and benefited me well. What I appreciated on top of it is the very respectful manner in which they kept their communication to the other counsels that were very aggressive and un polite in their matters. Thank you, Charles and the team! Ayendrila, Claire.

Being involved in a dispute as a Co-Founder of a company, and being out of Province, I was lost on what options I had.The company had moved from a Quebec Incorporation to an Alberta Incorporation.Residing in Montreal, I required the help of an Alberta based Law Firm.Charles Osuji listened to what I went through in a 1 hour meeting on line.He then assigned Miss Tanaaz Padania to my case.An Associate Lawyer with his firm, who took over my situation as though she experienced it herself.What impressed me with Tanaaz was that every time we had a conversation on events that happened years prior, she would come back with a letter to the opposing Lawyer with the exact occurrences that happened without error.She understood all I went through, and very aggressively held her ground with the opposing Lawyer.Very impressive on my end and would highly recommend contacting Tanaaz on any issues you may have regarding Corporate law.Thank you for your efforts Tanaaz.Andy NowostawskyMontreal, Quebec
