I fired two lawyers before someone recommended Brian to me. Brian told me the absolute truth from day one. I would not have an easy time proving to this judge that my child’s father is extremely dangerous. Brian is owed far more than what he cost as he saved my child’s life. He is not only a highly intuitive lawyer but a caring, honourable human being. He served as an Angel in our lives. He has extensive experience with CAS which we watched failed by child. When I thought there was no one who could possibly understand the depths that deception in child protection, there were several excellent police officers & Brian Hall who rallied for my daughter’s protection. I am so grateful as my adult daughter is now a graduate of one of the top universities and no longer fears her biological father. Brian treats everyone equally & is the most humble man I know.

Brian is an awesome lawyer with alot of experience. I'm glad to have him as my lawyer. He always keeps me updated and has always kept my families best interests in mind. I've had several lawyers in Oshawa and by far, Brian has been the most professional and has given me the best results. He listens and provides your best legal options and will fight for that. He will always give you the truth. Most importantly, Brian knows family law extremely well and is prepared for anything. I've always felt confident and protected with Brian as my lawyer. He's always in for the long haul, patient and able to look at the bigger picture. Brian shows up on time and never at a loss in the courtroom. If you want a good lawyer that knows his stuff and wont be bullied around, Brian is your guy.

He represented my son's girlfriend in a case and was atrocious. He charges $400 an hr yet is unresponsive to emails and phone calls and delays acting quickly costing thousands and thousands of dollars. He also does not respond to opposing counsel thus delaying processes. He give the impression he cares little about a client except the paycheque. I highly recommend you look elsewhere for a lawyer that care and communicates in a timely manner.

My wife came to you for help. you did nothing. she filled out and filed all the work her self. you would never stay in contact with her. she would have to hound you for 2 weeks. e mail and phone. all you would say "I will look into it, and sent more money". the other party did nothing but submit lies and you had the proof to help her. you did not. my wife spend 3 solid days filing paperwork and what she needed. you didnt even use half of it. I hope you feel ashamed of your self brian. your lack of intrest tore a family apart. how can you sleep at night. you should grow a soal and pay her back the thousands of dollars she has gave you

Brian Hall and Mary Cicci. I needed you on Friday of last week. The work was complex and very hard for me emotionally. You succeeded. Thank you.

It’s true to say Brian Hall is very knowledgeable and seems to be a good person and I truly don’t believe he actually did what his LSUC discipline record states since he’s a gentleman (I believe he was set up to take the fall by another Oshawa lawyer) my issue was that Brian told me “They’re going to out-spend you” and stopped dealing with critical paperwork that came into the office. Then when I terminated him I found key documents had vanished out of my file. And yes, they were documents I paid for and was entitled to receive. They were critical to my case and this quite literally sabotaged my progress when my case had moved out of Durham Region. I was given a $7,000 fee deduction by the firm but their errors cost me YEARS of lost visits with my two young children. If you deal with Brian then please regularly check that necessary forms are filed on time. I handed in retainer cheques promptly but my case wasn’t a priority. I think it was mainly Mary the clerk who disliked me.

Skill 5 out of 5. Intelligence 5 out of 5. Honesty 5 out of 5. I have positively every confidence in Brian. Have no worries at all what happened 10 years ago.

My case took forever with this lawyer. I finally hired another family lawyer and my case was resolved in 4 months.

Brian Hall is an excellent family lawyer. He handled my divorce in a professional and timely manner. He was amicable and professional in his handling of the situation. He facilitated a favourable separation agreement and division of assets. From my understanding, as derived from the success of my personal case, he is extremely knowledgeable of the law. Therefore, I recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Excellent lawyer!

Cannot thank enough. Kind, knowledgeable and courteous. Strong needed and flexible at same time. Person who other lawyers look up to and always seek advice from him. Even seen judge in court ask for advice on law. Forget any negative comments from people who have no clue on how great a lawyer is

Nothing ever gets done when he says he is going to do it-something more important always comes up! And he never calls back! I would suggest getting a different lawyer especially if you want any work to get done! All the way around horrible!

Mr. Hall is an excellent lawyer. He was able to listen to me and get me out of a very difficult situation. He is talented and able to get to the heart of the issue quickly. I found his work very affordable, he saved me thousands, and worth every penny. I never felt alone, he always got back to me quickly and explained every step of the process. You won't find a better, fairer lawyer.

This Lawyer talks a good story but hardly delivers same. He can drag stuff out to the full extent to make the opposing party frustrated however all the while happily raking up your bill. In 2010 he was suspended by the Law Society from practicing Law for 28 days and fined over $4,000.00 for engaging in professional misconduct but was billed for work performed during this time frame.. He also provided advise that in hindsight just prolonged a resolution. If your Family matters are simple and you need someone to do processing for you he is the guy you want but be warned that you must be careful of his recommendations because sometimes these are made only to benefit his billing... Know what you want and stay on task as a customer.

Brian Hall is highly knowledgeable and compassionate to say the least. The previous lawyer that I had retained only cared about getting paid. Mr. Hall was such a support and really helped me. I highly recommend anyone going through a divorce to give him a call.

Brian Hall is the best lawyer I have worked with and is one of the finest in Durham/Oshawa. He has saved my family and I from financial ruin and has always respected my family. I don't know how I could have survived and avoided this pain without him. He is worth every penny and has the strength to get the job done!
