Warren Skinner handled all legal matters during my very complex divorce and legal matters in it’s periphery. He handled my case with integrity, compassion, expertise and, frankly, ingenuity. He took my case on with a genuine interest in helping a single mother with 3 young children. It effected him on a personal level; we could all see that. He loaned me his law books, set me up in an office and included me in the entire process. He even went so far as to lower his rates with a promise that I would pay it back at the end, should I do well. I did do well (thanks to Mr. Skinner). He returned my final retainer. He was the perfect attorney for my family. We are so grateful.

I am surprised by the comments about Mr. Skinner, he is currently working on my case and I find him to be compassionate and caring. Warren was also honest and upfront regarding the costs. He keeps me updated and contacts me on a weekly basis. I also am very disgusted by the comments regarding his personal tragedy. DS in Aurora

As reported in this review, our dealings with Mr. Skinner were equally disappointing. He appears to be interested only in obtaining money, additionally, I'm being kind when I say that he appeared to be "disengaged" or not completely "with it" at a Court appearance. His standard phraseology of "not having a magic wand," was I feel, nothing short of an excuse to do the lack-lustre effort that appears to be his hallmark. In short, we feel he is incompetent, rude, and tries to project an image of a learned person, but does not deliver. As for the monies which he is holding in trust, we have tried several times to have it returned, after firing him, we are treated to the same half-hearted explanations and hang-ups. We are letting the Law Society deal with him now. In closing we did find a lawyer with a "magic wand," Stacey Nichols. She is an extremely capable lawyer. Stay away from Mr. Skinner he exemplifies everyting that gives a "black-eye" to the profession.

This is by far the worst lawyer I've had !!! After my consultation he told me I should move on etc , never fully even read my contract as he asked who wrote it ? WTF was wright on the paper he was reading ,Then after we agreed to amount which was poorly done and dated from 10 years ago .Finally he bills me additional charges in a email a few weeks later .Run from this guy he is after only your money .He really should be banned from law with his random billings .

This lawyer had the opportunity to resolve issues in my case conference, but instead chose not to challenge anything. When I inquired as to why he didn't take the opportunity to represent me, he responded that we would take care of it in court. Then he asked for $25,000. That's when I fired him. Totally useless.

I went for a free consult decided to retain him, left a retainer. Then less than 8 hours later changed my mind after finding this site. He refused to give me my deposit back when I called and asked for it back nicely he hung up!! He finally sent me a cheque for 1/3 of my deposit for him doing NO work for me at all. He charged me for the free consult and for hanging up on me. What a rip off!!! Stay clear of this person I wouldnt call him a lawyer!!

He is very efficient when it comes to reminding me of what is owed him but never has my file in front of him or can respond to questions. He even bills when he makes calls to remind money is owed. Seems totally disinterested in everything!!! Better to defend yourself than bother with him!!!
