Mr. Ram Shankar listened to me patiently, explained every step thoroughly, and always advocated for what was fair and right. His compassion and professionalism stood out. It's rare to find someone who balances legal expertise with genuine empathy so well. I highly recommend consulting Shankar Law Office for the legal matters.

Working with Shankar Law far exceeded our expectations.
We had a complex process which is unusual and which resulted in the buyers defaulting on the sale 5 times over 4 months and Melanie and Mr. Shankar supported us through the whole process!!
I've never had such a great experience when working with a legal professional and HIGHLY recommend their services.
If we ever need a lawyer they'll be our first call.

Thank you Mr.Shankar & Irene Collins. Irene was my first contact with the firm. I had been searching for a criminal lawyer that used legal aid and was not having any luck and thank god she was there. She listened to my pleas and wasn’t sure they could take on my case because they were very busy, but in the end they did. The weight that came off my shoulders and the relief I felt that my grandson had a lawyer now to represent him was unbelievable. Thank you Irene for hearing my pleas. Mr Shankar met with us and decided the best route to go. All correspondence and phone calls were answered. He knew what he was talking about and gave great advice. I truly thank you for helping me through this difficult journey, and helping my grandson with this issue. Thank you Irene for being at the end of the phone that day.

Our experience with Shankar Law was excellent. From beginning to end, the staff was thoughtful and efficient. Mr. Shankar and his team worked extremely hard to attain a favorable outcome at the end of our complex legal process. Emails were always answered promptly, and our questions were answered patiently and thoroughly. We were also impressed with the hard work of paralegal Irene Collins, who worked on our behalf. It was even mentioned in court that Mr. Shankar should be thanked for his hard work on this case. We highly recommend Shankar Law for anyone seeking to resolve any legal issues.

Mr.Shankar is very knowledgeable and was very understanding of my financial situation. He worked hard day and night despite the complex and difficult situation of my case. We ended up having a preferable outcome. It was not cheap but court proceedings are always expensive and again he understood my situation and was able to work with me to where we were both happy with payment.

He was my mother's lawyer for her seperation at the beginning. He missed filing crucial paperwork for her at the very beginning, that ultimately ended up costing her any alimony and child support she was owed, along with an incredible amount of money wasted for a woman at retirement age who had been a stay at home mom for years. He absolutely did not have my mother's interests in mind. There's is an email documented response from him telling my father's lawyer that he "didn't know what to do" and he very much seemed to be more interested in not fighting at all, but conceded to whatever my father/his lawyer asked. When my mother got a new lawyer she immediately saw how negligent he had been. I don't know how he sleeps at night after how much he cost a senior because she didn't know any better and trusted him. Do not hire him if you need someone to actually fight for you.

A terrible lawyer, He is good at getting nothing accomplished except billing you. tells you these things take time,yes because thats his plan.New lawyer accomplished more in one email than he did in 2 months and $8000, I finally got sick of his useless responses, I wrote my own, he copied and pasted it , still charged me, I hope he learned something from me, If I ever got to a courtroom I wouldnt want him beside me thats for sure, hired him for criminal and family matters, he sucks at both,I learned the hard way. I was told to get a good lawyer, I now know what a bad one s, learn from my experience and look elsewhere

Ram worked endlessly and worked late for me and we had to overcome some obstacles (not much time). Ram had a good "bang for you buck" and did a great job. I had a previous lawyer and this was the main reason I ended up going to Ram rather than keeping my otherone. Not for one second did I regret my decision.

I am grateful to Mr. Ram Shankar for his representation during my recent legal ordeal. Falsely accused of criminal charges, I felt overwhelmed and uncertain about the path forward. Mr. Shankar exhibited expertise and dedication through the process. His approach, along with that of his team, was not only skilled but also compassionate, providing reassurance and guidance during this challenging time.
Thanks to Mr. Shankar’s relentless efforts, the false allegations were effectively withdrawn, and the case was resolved in my favor. I recommend Mr. Ram Shankar to those in need of a committed defense attorney.

They guided me through but went with my decision and talked me through my fears and thoughts. It was a good experience in a stressful situation and am grateful for all they did for me. Thank you.

Mr Shankar helped us get our adoption started and finalized. The whole court system took a long time, but we felt like Mr Shankar and his amazing staff did everything possible to help things get done as quickly as possible. Him and his staff were also very communicative on what was happening and what we could expect to happen. It was a very good experience working the Shankar Law Office, and we would highly recommend them to anyone needing a family law lawyer.

This agency was very helpful during the journey of my needs. They were diligent and professional in reviewing my case and establishing any facts. I won my case and couldn't be more proud of the work that was done on my behalf. I highly recommend the services of Shankar Law services when in need. They fought hard for my justice and it prevailed. They were thorough and fought hard where it counted most. I am truly grateful for what they accomplished for me.

Hiring Ram was the best decision ever made. Ram was hired after dealing with another lawyer for a year with no results and a lot of money lost. Ram handled my family matter in a matter of months with a positive outcome and half the amount. The only regret was he wasn’t hired first.

Mr. Shankar represented us in our criminal case. The outcome could have gone a number of ways. The eventual outcome was good. He and his staff acted promptly throughout. He and his staff were very accessible through email and phone. His knowledge, experience and strong understanding of the legal system, particularly with local officials was evident. I would highly recommend him.

I have worked with Mr. Shankar for over 5 years on a very complex case. He was always very responsive and hard working to the point I wondered when he slept. Even when legal aid withdrew their support, Ram and his team helped answer my questions and guided be through the process to a very favourable result. He also helped prepare our family wills as he's now my go-to lawyer. Thanks Ram.

Mr Shankar and his office helped me through the painful process of divorce. During emotional times he kept me focused on what was important, which was being able to be in my son's life. He was professional and dedicated, travelling to Ottawa to conduct mediations with me. Whenever i had a concern, he was quick to address it with the opposing lawyer. He is a very busy lawyer, but at the same time he was there for me. I very much recommend him and his firm.

I was having issues with my ex regarding child support, access and different types of disagreements. His service was always quick and simple and straightforward and reliable. He instantly agreed to take on my case which was a huge relief. Although not everything worked out the way I hoped for in the beginning, I am still pretty happy with how things are now. Mr. Shankar was able to keep the matter out of the court, helping me to come to a fair agreement with my ex without the hassle and expenses of court. That was definitely a huge stress and time relief and a big money saver. What I also like about Mr. Shankar is, that he never pushed me into anything. He always reminded me to think about my next steps carefully as court can get very expensive. Also his staff is super friendly and knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely choose to work with him again should I run into other legal issues.

The SHANKAR LAW team worked very hard to achieve the urgent results i needed. The team stayed in contact with me everyday, multiple times per day. I am EXTEMELY grateful for everything they have done. I would recommend SHANKAR LAW firm to anyone who needs a passionate, knowledgeable, extremely thorough law team. 5-outof-5! Thank you!!!

I had recently separated from my spouse and knew that I would need good representation for My custody and Access regarding our son. Shankar Law was suggested to me by a friend. I looked them up online and just got a general good feeling about the type of services they provide. I then spoke with Mr. Shankar and knew after talking with him he was going to be my choice for representation. I gave Him the background and we knew it would be an uphill battle as circumstances would have it. He said “No problem Sir, I like a challenge”. Over the months I got to know his qualified and professional staff. A large thank you must be given to his Para legal Amanda for her tireless efforts in helping me with my documents by going well above and beyond expectations by meeting with me on weekends to accommodate my schedule. His team will go the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied. I would gladly give him and his team a 5/5. Thank you Ram and Shankar law for your service. I am so satisfied with hi

I just completed a complex matrimonial case with Mr Shankar. This includes custody, access, OCL report, equalization, property division, support... Lots of work, lots of motions, conferences. Mr Shankar and his staff were extremely professional, patient, thorough and importantly, Mr Shankar believed in me and in my story. He generally returned my calls in less than 24 hours, always emailed me back, answered my questions patiently and thoroughly. Sometimes when Mr Shankar didn't have an answer, he took the time and effort to find out the answer and to get back to me. He was very well prepared for cases, was articulate and passionate in telling my story to the Judge. He isn't intimidated by other lawyers and faces them well. I definitely recommend Mr Shankar without any reservation. My case resolved satisfactorily. I'm very grateful to Mr Shankar. His staff are very professional and communicate extremely well.

Incorrect info given to client. Was not familiar with actual case file when went to court. Did not prepare client for what was actually going to happen. Also falsely instructed on what would happen if matter did come up. Does not support you, just tries to get you to sign papers to end the court case without any prior knowledge of that being a possibility or the only possible outcome. Would definitely advise against. Thought was cheaper, but does not provide the legal advice & time you need. Also just wants to get the paperwork done regardless of the outcome (does not care about you as long as the paperwork is done)

Mr. Shankar has been a light at the end of the tunnel for me. He has worked with me on my limited budget due to over paying my ex for 3 years, Mr. Shankar is an advocate for dads who have been struggling due to family court struggles. I appreciate everything he has done to date and we still have a very long road to go, but I would recommend him to anyone who has been beaten and abused by a system that dosent work for dads. To be honest the only words I have for Mr. Shankar are thank you!!!! you and your team are fantastic people. So any dad in the Owen Sound area who need representation from a man who will fight for you, the only recommendation I have for you is Shankar law. I certify these are my words! thanks again Ram.
