Click to report rating    9/6/23   1     1     1     1     1   After years of listening to his stories of how great he is with results, and having none, I said good bye with no money and no results RID: 266765
Click to report rating    11/12/19   5     5     5     5     5   About to be RAPED by the Family Law Act? You need this man! I am forever grateful to him. I'm sure I was his poorest client but I got first rate representation in a bitter divorce after 24 years married. My alimony will only be for six years! Nuff said! You are in a fight for your future-you need the best!! The law if applied by the courts is absolutely against against you if you are a hard working man. However anything can be negotiated. Your agreement will be Miglin proof. You can't afford not to have him and his team behind you. From the depths of despair to the happiest I have been in decades! RID: 216138
Click to report rating    3/24/18   5     4     4     4     4   I will forever be grateful that Brian encouraged me to fight for custody of my kids. The laws in Canada screw over men with successful businesses and disproportionately advantages non-working wives in custody and financial matters. Brian is the right guy to fight this injustice. In hindsight he should have settled earlier but he is probably right that my ex wasn't ready then. He is slightly overworked and needs reminders sometimes but otherwise I am grateful to the team at Epstein & Cole and Brian. RID: 197423

Click to report rating    7/4/16   1     1     1     1     1   I made a mistake when hiring a lawyer from one of Canada's top law firms. I was under the assumption Mr. Burke would advocate in my best interest. I feel he did not. In addition to, he not only didn't have a document in the required amount of time before my trial, therefore costing me money, but he sat with a "how to" book on his lap during the trial! RID: 171328
Click to report rating    3/23/16   5     1     1     1     1   Told me he would be my "cowboy", spent a lot of money without a resolution. Made decisions without my knowledge or approval. Spent a lot of money and do not have a separation agreement or divorce. Gave up after a few years. Was a bully and had issues with rage and hostility. Still don't have a legal separation after 10 years but will not pursue with this lawyer/ firm. RID: 167026

 10/12/15   4     4     5     5     5   I came to Brian to help me end a long drawn out separation with my common law partner. It was a complicated matter dealing with business and other assets. Right from the beginning he called me back the very next day even though he had just arrived back from vacation. He listened empathetically and though I hadn't hired him as of yet, he took the time to understand and offer some ideas. I was very impressed by his communication and it felt like he really cared. Then when I met with him in person, he helped me to cut through all the non-sense and give practical advice which helped to get me a settlement. Brian's whole team have been responsive and on the ball. I felt like I had a strong legal team behind me...and it made all the difference for me. I'd highly recommend Brian especially on complex matters. He is a great negotiator and really a solid lawyer for any family law matter. RID: 160367

Click to report rating    10/12/13   2     2     1     1     1   Terrible lawer! takes advantage of his clients,do not invest any effort to collaborate process, resolve conflict,avoids exhausting all avenues resolve conflict. Good lawyer finds ways to cooperative resolution,negotiate a resolution. Therefore, impose clients to unneeded litigation. RID: 125155
Click to report rating    6/7/13   1     1     1     1     1   he is very bad lawyer. charge too much for nothing he does RID: 115349
Click to report rating    8/7/12   1     1     1     1     1   A bad lawyer and over charges. He promised several things that were suppose to happen in a certain amount of time which never happened. He also over charges then blames it on his receptionist. Also said the other lawyer representing my ex is "a no name" and that he is a far superior lawyer. All he wants to do is send stern letters and gets no results. A complete waste of time and would not recommend him to anybody! RID: 84603
Click to report rating    5/31/12   4     4     5     4     5   I commend Brian Burke, Alyssa Weinerman, Joelle Ruskin, and the team at Epstein Cole for their Professionalism and Sensitivity to my circumstances. If you are in need of Excellent Representation, I have recommended Brian Burke and the Epstein Cole Law Firm to 2 people and will gladly refer him to others. Brian and his team are full value for the investment and will look out for your best interests and outcome. Family Law is very contentious and complex at the best of times. Brian has done nothing but deliver results for me. Selecting a good Family Lawyer to represent you is a difficult task. I sincerely recommend that you take the time to research and interview your Lawyer before you retain him/her. In the end, it will be the difference between wondering what could have been (results wise)? vs. Peace of mind and comfort knowing that you made the right choice! RID: 71145
