Are fees the most crucial factor for you in choosing: Your doctor, your surgeon, your dentist, your psychologist, your tax accountant, your mortgage broker, your insurance broker, or your financial advisor?
I hope your answer is “of course not” - because it shouldn’t be. Nor should it be for selecting your lawyer! Not to belittle the importance of the cost to you for any of these very important services towards your physical, mental, emotional, and financial well being. However, we should be striving to obtain the best available expertise and service from each professional that we rely upon. Period.
I’m always surprised to learn that there are still many realtors and professionals out there that advise their clients to shop around for the cheapest quote from lawyers for legal services, instead of recommending the lawyer or law firm with the best available expertise and service.
It has never been our goal at Kormans LLP to provide legal services at the cheapest rates on the market. At Kormans LLP our goal has always been to protect our clients by providing market leading expertise and exceptional service. In doing so, we also ensure that we remain very competitive in the legal marketplace with the costs to be incurred in the legal process. However, we do not compete with lawyers and law firms that fail to earn business and therefore resort to undercutting the market by providing low fees with very little service in return. As the old expression goes, you get what you pay for!
Your home transaction is the biggest purchase/sale of your home. It’s time to work with an experienced law firm that is ready to provide you with the needed service to get the transaction closed right. We stand behind our glowing google reviews from our happy clients. Contact the trusted lawyers at Kormans LLP to get started by reaching us at info@kormans.ca

Good news for first-time home buyers! On May 27, 2025, legislative proposals were introduced in the Parliament to amend the Excise Tax Act by creating a new GST rebate specifically for first-time home buyers.
Purchasing a condominium in Ontario demands more than selecting the right unit! One of the most important aspects of this transaction is a thorough review of the status certificate.
As part of a commercial real estate sale transaction, our office often gets retained during the early part of the transaction in order to review the Agreement of Purchase and Sale (the “APS”).
