I made the best decision when I decided to contact Charles to assist with my divorce. After the first phone call with Charles and Amanda their confidence and knowledge put me at ease ... I knew then I was in good hands. Thank you both so much for taking care of everything for me !

Charles’ compassionate approach and professional manner inspired confidence from the first phone call. His knowledge and experience is very evident and he provided sound advice. Claire did an outstanding job and her thorough research and attention to detail is to be commended. My case was to do with employment law and without their expertise, I would not have received a settlement that was fair and reasonable. I would highly recommend this law firm.

It has been a great experience to have business with Osuji & Smith law firm! I refinanced my mortgage for my house in Calgary by the end of February 2021, and needed remote signing services since I was not in Calgary. Ivania Parada helped me a lot! She is very nice and very professional! She always responded my questions quickly and very patient. The service was excellent! I would recommend this firm to my friend where necessary! Thanks to Osuji & Smith and thanks to Ivania Parada!

I contacted Charles Osuji regarding an employment issue. It wasn't an easy decision to make the call, but I am sure glad I did! From the moment my call was answered, my mind was put at ease, and I knew I had made the right decision. My questions and concerns were answered promptly and efficiently, and most importantly, I felt 100% supported throughout the process. The best review I can give is a 5 star but if I could give more, I would.Thank you Charles and team!!

I got Charles Osuji's contact from my lawyer since my issue was workplace related. He was very professional and helpful. In just a few minutes he was able to analyze my situation and gave me wise counsel on how to proceed. I have in the past read good reviews about this law firm and can now conclude they are probably one of the best in the Province. My experience was second to none and the quality of service was on point. I definitely recommend them for all your future legal needs.

I started my career in administrative support, and worked in several top Law Firms. As such, I worked closely with countless lawyers in every area of practice. And of course, dealt with many lawyers personally when expert advice was needed. In all my years, I have never met a more compassionate, caring, and truly such an exceptionally skilled Lawyer as Charles Osuji. Despite finding him due to the need to have representation in a complex corporate litigation, (never a fun scenario), my husband and I could not feel more grateful to have found him and his team. We have been truly overwhelmed by the level of expertise and care that he, and his equally exceptional Associate, Claire Lee have given us. To say they have gone above and beyond our expectations, in every way, would be an understatement. We could not be more grateful to have them as our counsel, and trusted advisors for every aspect of our business. So rare do you find people so incredibly kind, while also being incredible lawyers. We feel truly grateful to be counted as clients, and for the stress they ease by the exceptional work they do on our, and our business's behalf. They are truly THE BEST!!

I have recently settled an Injury Claim through Osuji & Smith - c/o Nitin Srivastava. After my file had been transferred to Nitin, he was very quick to get the ball rolling. He fought hard on my behalf, to get the compensation I deserved. He is also very thorough. I feel he left no stone unturned. I am happy with the settlement I was able to get. I reccommend Osuji & Smith, as well as Nitin Srivastava, for any legal matters! Thanks again!

What else can I say aside from the fact that Charles is the man! My wife had a case of Constructive Dismissal. Initially we had no idea what rights we had or where we could turn. Luckily I came across Charles and his team. Right from the start it was clear he understood what he was doing and provided us with a plan of action and also let us know what our rights were. He took our case on a contingency basis and delivered.I would recommend to anyone out there that is facing injustice and is afraid of lawyer fees, to contact Charles. If he can help you, he will!I have already recommended him to a friend. Trust me, Charles will do everything possible to make sure you get a fair treatment.

I urgently needed an immigration form to be notarized so I contacted Charles via email. I was blown away by his immediate response and he arranged a time for me to come to the office, despite his tight schedule. I arrived the office at the appointed date and was warmly received by Sarah who helped me print the form which needed to be notarized. Charles made the process seamless and got the form signed in no time, and best of all, offered his service FOC. For me, Osuji and Smith is the best among the rest and I highly recommend the firm to anyone seeking top quality legal services.

Every task was worked on with attention to all details and ensuring the goals were met. I highly recommended their office for both services and practicum.

When I was wrongly dismissed from my job I was feeling very negative...until I spoke to Charles Ousji. To begin with Charles is an amazing listener. As I told him of the circumstances of my dismissal he asked all of the right questions to determine whether or not I had a case against this employer. He told me that if he did not think anything could be done to rectify this situation he would always be honest with me. He was always available to me during the 18 months we worked through the process..first trying to negotiate a settlement and finally setting a court date. \charles was honest with me without giving me false hope. I would recommend him to anyone who has an employment injustice. 10 out of 10 stars for \ousiji and smith

Charles and his team at Osuji & Smith handled our real estate business with great efficiency. However, soon after, I had need to involve them with an industrial relations matter which had lingered at the time. Charles' thorough understanding, grasp, advice and execution, spiced with his patience, all contributed significantly to a timely and favorable resolution. I would recommend Osuji & Smith any time, any day, without hesitation.

Charles is a fantastic lawyer who brought my case to fruition, not only rapidly, but as cost effectively as possible.Don't let his youthful, yet professional composure misguide you, he is very capable of holding "feet to the fire" when its required.I had many choices when I began my journey 11 months ago, and I am so happy that I made the RIGHT choice, in going with Charles.So... if you're experiencing employment issues, and you're shopping around for best representation, my opinion is that you just found him, and my advise would be to call Charles now.

My brother and I have consulted many lawyers since our recent legal trouble. After today we can confidently say Osuji is the best lawyer thus far that we have met. Not only did Osuji push the meeting 40 minutes to accommodate Cody getting out of work late, but he also extended the meeting an extra 35 minutes to go through everything in detail instead of just rushing through it. Our meeting even extended past close!In the meeting there was a student lawyer as well as an assistant lawyer to Osuji. They made us feel like they were putting all of their resources into our case and for probably the best rate I have seen. Osuji also told us that we could do the lawsuit ourselves. Instead of roping us into a ton of costs, he put our best interest first and let us know what we should do to save the most money. Truly the best lawyer you could ask for.

I needed legal advice on short notice concerning an IP (Intellectual Property) issue. I was able to get an appointment with Mr Osuji for the next day but, due to a scheduling mixup, he was double booked for my time. The way it worked out was that he was an hour late for my appointment but he the apologized for the mixup and then spent 45 minutes with me making all of his remaining appointments late. That was the ethical thing to do even though it meant that his remaining meetings that day would all begin on a sour note and I was impressed with his decision. The meeting was very productive during which he revised key parts of the IP document to more clearly protect my interests. The resulting document was just what I needed in a subsequent business deal.

Right from day one of my Separation and eventual Divorce, Charles responded to all elements of this process with kindness, respect and legal intellect. He guided the process thoughtfully and we came to fair and intelligent conclusions together during times of extreme stress created by an abusive ex. He was also able to approach the other side respectfully and with ease - eventually playing a key role in helping us settle a contentious issue that remained after our divorce was completed. His team - particularly Alessia and Gordon - are organized, effective, kind and thoughtful. Charles also created a reassuring set of wills etc for a very fair price to give me a sense of security for my children. To sum up, Charles was and will continue to be my lawyer because he is everything a lawyer should be and his legal intellect is unquestionable. To top it off, he does it all with an approachable personality, good intentions for all involved, and a smile. Do not hesitate to hire Charles and his team to handle your Family Law matters. Osuji and Smith is top shelf in all categories and you won't regret it.

As an entrepreneur, you hope to never need the services of a lawyer for anything more serious than the day to day legal requirements of running your business. In reality situations occur when you need to place your business, your future, and your absolute trust in your legal counsel. For those situations you need Osuji & Smith. Without the knowledge, professionalism and patience of Charles Osuji and his team, the outcome of our recent challenges could have been very different indeed.

Josephine, OCharles Osuji has been my legal advisor for awhile. From the first day I met with Charles I came to conclusion that being brilliant and respectful has nothing to do with race or colour of skin. If you need a smart, efficient, competent, hardworking and professional lawyer, Charles embodies all this qualities. Charles is very patient, considerate, hardworking lawyer that works 24/7 for the best interest of his client. He has been handling all my legal matters and had done an amazing job. He works with a dynamic and friendly team. I highly recommend him and his law firm Osuji & Smith Lawyers.

I came to Osuji & Smith to review a commercial lease for my new business location. Charles and another team member thoroughly reviewed my lease with me so that I understood it, and provided me specific notes about the present lease to take back to the landlord. Charles exceeded my expectations by also giving me additional tips on legal contracts on top of sharing some business advice that will be invaluable to the future of my business and my success as a new business owner. I feel the value I received from this office is why I will surely choose them again in the future.

As a small business owner, my resources are very limited and when I needed legal counsel, Charles did his very best to work around that and help me as best he could. I would send him emails on the weekend expecting a reply during business hours the following week, and he would surprised me with prompt replies that weekend, even when he wasn't supposed to be working. I can not thank him enough for everything he has helped me with and will be using him exclusively. I have had unpleasant experiences in the past with Lawyers but having worked with Charles, he has changed my opinion and I unequivocally trust him and his council. He has certainly won me over. Thank you so much again Charles. I won't hesitate to recommend your services to anyone else.

I was referred by a colleague to Smith Law Office and Mr Jim Smith in 2012. I found the office environment welcoming and the advice and counsel offered by Mr Smith professional, compassionate and understanding.This initial experience made them my first choice when I needed assistance again in 2014 and this time a young Mr Charles Osuji was to be my counsel. Agreeing to meet and work with Charles is one of the best decision I have ever made. Underneath his youthful appearance and contagious smile lies a determined lawyer with a big heart and a bigger understanding of the law and legal process. His thoroughness and professionalism from the very start gave us a solid foundation when the situation unfortunately exploded.Charles is the lead lawyer on my file with Jim assisting when needed. There are also some efficient and friendly students who support Charles and Jim and of course the hardworking Legal Assistants round out our team. Each time I go through personal attacks and emotional reactions, Charles and the team are right there with simple facts, the law and a clear plan. This is incredibly calming and empowering, 2 things you do not think you will feel when caught in a legal battle. I completely respect and defer to Charles’ knowledge of the law and legal etiquette. He knows when to be patient and also when to be aggressive. Though my file continues, we have already been victorious 3 times in court.I have referred friends to Charles and the team at Osuji Smith have they too have experienced success. I highly recommend and have 100% faith in the Osuji Smith team.

I was introduced to Charles after series of disappointments from my previous lawyer. Initially, I was skeptical considering my bad experiences with my previous lawyer ; and his youthful looks did not help matter much. However, his high level of professionalism and ability to get results quickly laid those fears to rest. Most importantly, he restored my confidence in the law profession once again. Thanks Charles and keep up the good work.

Charles and I worked together within the months of March and April 2015. I went to him for an employment issue. I have to admit I was skeptical at first because he looked young.After deciding to hire him to represent me with my issue, I came to the quickest realization that he had that tenacious and calm composure that I needed for the situation at hand. Safe to say, I was a very happy client. Also, I learnt that looking young does not mean you are not competent. Charles is very competent in his field and I see him and his reputation going places within the legal society in Alberta.Thanks Charles for being in my corner during that battle.
