Click to report rating    12/18/24   4     3     1     3     1   A Yes lawyer, always reacting to the other side. Not a go-getter. Just does what the other side says and wants to settle. RID: 271589
Click to report rating    4/3/24   5     5     5     5     5   I truly admire Israel Apter and the entire team at Krol and Krol for doing an outstanding job at looking after my family law situation. Israel listens attentively and patiently to my concerns and diligently helps to alleviate any worries I may have, while always providing the best possible advice as a strong advocate for my legal needs. He is determined, organized, efficient and empathetic to his clients. I highly recommend Israel and Krol and Krol to anyone who is going through family law issues. They are the best team to have on your side! Thank you. RID: 269163
Click to report rating    7/17/23   5     5     5     5     5   Israel Apter of Krol & Krol handled my divorce and a number of issues with my ex-wife over the next few years. He was always patient, understanding and compassionate throughout the entire process. Israel is very knowledgeable and when necessary, would consult with colleagues to make sure I had the proper legal advice and was given options for any scenario that might arise. His communication was timely and informative, so as not to waste time and any updates were sent promptly. When necessary, Israel was tough and firm and was willing to fight for my rights and get me what I wanted. He is hard working, intelligent and diligent and I would highly recommend his services.

Click to report rating    4/21/23   5     5     5     5     5   Israel Apter,Erin Krol and Stephanie Krol were invaluable in helping me through a very difficult and stressful situation. I was extremely impressed and grateful that they were able to preserve my rights in Ontario,after my ex started a divorce proceeding in the Middle East. It was a monumental task to navigate international divorce law after Covid lock downs threw everything into a tailspin. This is not an area too many lawyers have experience with and I'm pleased to say Krol and Krol was able to navigate this uncharted territory to a successful conclusion! I had total confidence in my representation the entire time. They were very supportive and provided thorough answers to all of my questions. I very much appreciated that they are settlement oriented.When my caseload was high, they would work late into the night and even on weekend and holidays to make sure deadlines were met and everything was handled in a timely manner. RID: 264898
Click to report rating    4/18/23   5     5     5     5     5   Israel Apter and Katie Hunter from Krol and Krol represented me in what was a difficult and drawn out separation from my wife. Both of them were professional, offered sound advise, and provided legal guidance but let me make my own decisions. Both were timely in their response and always kept me informed. Most importantly, both of them understood how emotionally difficult my separation was and showed empathy. I would strongly recommend getting Israel or Katie to represent you. RID: 264854
Click to report rating    4/4/23   5     5     5     5     5   Israel Apter is not only a professional lawyer with extensive knowledge of family law but he is also a compassionate individual who is 100% client-focused. No one wishes to resort to legal action, but when all other possibilities have been exhausted, the stakes are high which makes the process extremely stressful, especially when coming into the process with limited knowledge of the legal system. Israel was able to alleviate this stress by patiently and efficiently guiding me every step of the way. He and his colleague Stephanie Krol worked tirelessly and diligently on my case to ensure a positive outcome. I couldn’t be more grateful to them for their incredible support. I highly recommend their services to anyone who finds themselves in a difficult situation and in need of a caring and trustworthy lawyer. RID: 264704

 11/4/19   5     5     5     5     5   I first used the services of Krol & Krol many years ago, when it was just Henry and Marilyn. They have since grown into a cohesive, team driven firm that is very impressive indeed. A good thing, too, because unfortunately, I have once again needed their services these past two years. I was fortunate to have Israel as the senior lawyer on my case. He is creative, thoughtful and tough when needed. He was especially firm during a five way meeting that could have been a difficult and painful process. But he was cool, straightforward yet firm in the process. I can highly recommend Mr. Apter and his firm Krol & Krol to anyone. RID: 215933
Click to report rating    1/24/17   5     5     5     5     5   I used Israel and his firm in completing my separation and divorce, and then a second round a mere few months later. I was in a vulnerable position being a stay-at-home-mom of three young kids and it was nerve-wracking with all the uncertainty of financials, naturally. I researched and did my homework and met with Israel and Henry more than once before retaining Israel. He has a very good disposition, he is quick and analytical and passionate. More than a few times he had to talk me down as things typically got heated with the opposition. He's very thorough and confident, which is exactly what I wanted. Not aggressive in nature, but strong minded and firm and fights for his client. I'm happy to say that my Agreement weighed heavily in my favour and I will continue to use them...if dragged back into proceedings again. RID: 179600
Click to report rating    2/29/16   5     5     5     5     5   Israel represented my interests with great integrity. He supported me throughout my divorce process and ensured that I was well represented. RID: 165989
Click to report rating    7/27/15   5     5     5     5     5   I highly recommend Israel. He represented me in a very long separation dispute. He is knowledgable, bright, thorough, prompt, and professional. Through the long process he wrote three different separation agreements for me and each was done quickly and accurately. I never needed to contact him to move things along as he would contact me first. I had a thick file but it was clear Israel had read all the documents as he would mention relevant details at our meetings. I also liked that he works for an established firm (Krol & Krol) as it meant he could bring Henry Krol into a discussion as well as use other available resources. Israel's competence and confidence supported his willingness to use all available resources. A previous lawyer had prepared a trust document that was a problematic attempt to speed up a house purchase. The other side attempted to interpret the document to their advantage. Israel immediately consulted a trust specialist and resolved the issue. Thank you! LK RID: 157275
