Horrible service. Rude and unprofessional. Jacks up the price after she takes your retainer. Stay away from her!

When my wife and I purchased our first house, naturally stress abound everywhere. The last thing we wanted to worry about were legal documents!!! Harriet Altman to the rescue. We found Harriet through public referrals and we are so glad we did. From initiating, guiding and executing the process and daunting paperwork, Harriet was able to translate into layman terms, and her communication channels were always open. These facts, in conjunction with a very favorable fee structure resulted in a top notch service and happy new home owners. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED A++ Service Provider.

My wife and I needed to get some legal work done fairly quickly before heading out of town. Not only did Harriet Altman meet us early in the morning to accommodate our schedule but she finished the work in a very timely manner. Harriet was very fair with her pricing and made sure we understood everything that was included in the bill. Overall, the service we received was excellent and I would highly recommend her.

I never met a Lawyer I could trust until Harriet. Aside from being extremely professional, diligent, smart as a whip and in general the most qualified Real Estate Lawyer I've ever dealt with, Harriet also has a heart of gold. We were going through one of the worst closings I've ever had (and I've had a lot) and to Harriet's credit, she worked day and night to resolve the issues we were having. She took time out of her holiday and weekend just so we could close on time. I highly recommend Harriet to anyone who believes in competency, value and integrity. I can't thank her enough for all her help and am very grateful to have dealt with her. I will use her again the next chance I get!

I have used Harriet Altman as my real estate lawyer since approximately 1995. Over the years she has assisted me in purchasing, and subsequently selling, a condo and 3 houses in the GTA. In addition, she has assisted with providing wills and powers of attorney's for my wife and I. I have always felt that having Harriet on my side was a great benefit. I have referred numerous friends, and most importantly my parents, for wills, powers of attorneys and real estate closings - all without issue.

We emailed Mrs. Altman to set a quote. I received a return email promptly with all the details I required. She asked me to call her and she explained the whole process to me. She reviewed the entire process with us and advised us to call our insurance agent and arrange coverage and to finalize the mortgage promptly. The transaction went so smoothly that I referred my sister and mother in-law to her.

When me and my partner hired Mrs. Altman, we found her to be efficient, knowledgeable and prompt. Our closing went without a hitch and she was very pleasant to do business with. In the past we have found that some lawyers did not treat us as well and were judgmental of same sex couples. Mrs. Altman welcomed us into her office which is in her home and made us feel very welcome. I would recommend her to anyone.

I have used Harriet Altman for the legal details on the purchase and sale of 5 houses since 2001 and found her to be very professional and detail oriented. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks Harriet!

Harriet Altman is a wonderful lawyer; she is very knowledgeable and fair. We use her for all our closings and we have always been satisfied with the quality of service and price. She is always available to answer our questions or phone calls. I would definitely recommend using Harriet if you are buying or selling a house and need excellent representation.

I'd like to thank Mrs. Altman for her conscientious efforts and more than fair professional fees in helping my family with their real estate closings.

I was referred to Harriet Altman by my supervisor at work when we bought our 1st house. He had used her in the past and promised she would see us after hours so I would not have to leave work. She was efficient, pleasant, walked us through the whole process, did not charge much for disbursements fees, did not charge for phone calls and was hundreds less than our other quote. The whole process went smoothly and I would recommend her to my friends.

My husband and I were new to Canada when we hired Harriet Altman to help us with the purchase of our condominium. She explained to us the concept of a Condominium and thoroughly reviewed the Status Certificate with us. She made us understand that the fees were only set for a year and that they would increase over time and made sure our budget accounted for this. She explained the benefits of each of the two mortgages we were considering and this helped us make an informed decision. The purchase went smoothly and she handed us our keys early on the closing date. Our closing package followed soon after and we will always be grateful for the help we received.

Harriet Altman has been acting for myself and my family on real estate matters since 2006. She is reliable, experienced and a pleasure to work with. I know I would use her on my next transaction and would not even consider changing.

I wish I had read these bad reviews earlier. Could have saved me so much headaches. Altman took me for a ride and screwed me over for $2,000. She said it would cost me $1,000 and then it gradually went up to $3,200. She did not provide a written estimate. Definitely no email and no cell phone. Extremely rude person. Also I notice that after a bad review it is always followed by an excellent review a few days later. The administrator of this site should see if those reviews are coming from Mrs. Altman herself. Timing is suspicious and she is very sneaky.

Awful lawyer. Horrible experience. I am looking at her business card right now and there is no email address on it. She might have a mobile phone but she won't give you the number otherwise you can text her. Harriet Altman avoids anything that leaves a record of communication. Thats how she is able to skyrocket her fees after she ropes you in and takes your deposit. For anyone that reads this and claims to have had a wonderful experience with her and that she has a mobile phone, then please post that number up here because after all it is public information and she will want the advertising.

Harriet Altman has closed 5 houses for me in the last 15 years and every deal was accomplished professionally, smoothly and without me lifting a finger. I love the personal touch of her home office. This make me trust her even more as most lawyers would never even tell you where they live!
