⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex and his team were amazing during a very difficult period where I needed his assistance in getting an employment issue resolved with an employer. I was very pleased with the end result. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alex and his team in Ottawa to anyone needing any kind of legal assistance relating to employment issues. While I never hope to have to engage their services again (obviously), I will not hesitate to engage Alex again should I ever need too because I trust their ability to resolve important legal matters relating to employment and employers.

– Bernie S.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I would highly recommend Samfiru Tumarkin, Ottawa! I was planning to accept the terms of my original contract after being made redundant, but after consulting with Alex Lucifero, I thought a final conversation with my employer was in order. Alex’s legal expertise in employment law is second to none! He advised me on the options concerning the severance package my employer had offered me. He was patient in all dealings with me, yet firm and respectful with my former employer! This resulted in a positive outcome for me. I would recommend the free initial conversation offered by Samfiru Tumarkin. I was hesitant to reach out initially as I was emotionally drained and not feeling like discussing my situation. I’m so glad I reached out to Alex at a time when I was vulnerable and in need of help. Thanks for your capable assistance Alex!

– Lorna D.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great service, very professional, easy to understand and clear in their legal advise.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex Lucifero and team were very professional in their dealings with me, and took the the time to explain the process, the steps, and the choices available. They helped me get a better severance package than my employer had offered me, so we came out successfully! I would recommend Alex and this firm.

– Mary J. Ash

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a really good experience with this firm and would recommend it to everyone to get help with regards to employment issues.. I had Alex as my lawyer who was very supportive at all times , although my former employee did not respond but Alex gave me suggestions as to how to proceed going forward 🙂

– Myra S.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex Lucifero did excellent work to get my case resolved.

– Ann T.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ During a difficult and stressful time, Alex and team were able to provide me with guidance regarding the offered severance package. Throughout the entire process, they readily answered all of my questions and provided me with timely updates. I was referred to Alex from a friend, and I will definitely be doing the same.

– Darryl S.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex took on my case and was able to get a fair resolution in just over a month. He took the time to answer my questions and always offered to hop on a call if I needed to chat through anything. Even though Alex is the managing partner of the Ottawa office (who I’d expect to be very busy), I always felt I could count on him or his assistant, Sajeela, to get back to me in a timely fashion. I really appreciated Alex’s direct approach (he balances that with a great bedside manner) and knew I could trust his legal advice (he’s obviously very knowledgeable). It was truly a great experience working with Alex and I 100% recommend him and his team!

– Jeannie N.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend Samfiru Tumarkin Ottawa Employment Lawyers. Alex was referred to me by a former colleague. I had never deal with employment law before and was looking for guidance in regards to a severance package that was offered to me. Alex took the time to explain the negotiation process to me and both he and Sajeela were incredibly helpful throughout it. I found the entire experience to be very positive.

– Chantal Z.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an excellent experience with the law firm of Samfiru Tumarkin. I worked with Alex Lucifero and Sajeela Veldhuis. Both were very professional and helpful. Alex went through my options in upfront and straightforward terms. Their help made the whole process so much easier and really took a lot of the stress away which was extra helpful this past year considering the Pandemic. I would strongly recommend their services and I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again. They will not just take on any case, they will let you know if you have a case to win or if you do not have a case. Either way, you know where you stand. I worked for a US-based company in a very toxic environment and felt Samfiru Tumarkin, based on their experience in ER matters, would be my best option to ensure I received what I was due based on my career history, salary, role, etc. I received much more then was originally offered. For anyone who also finds themselves in a similar situation, you owe it to yourself to find out the options available to you by chatting with Alex or anyone else at Samfiru Tumarkin. CK

– C K.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My file was handled by Alex and Sajeela. These guys are the best. Period. Fast, professional service. They made the process smooth and easy. They got me the results I was looking for and more. I was amazed with all aspects of how they treated me and how they handled my case. In the past, I have use other firms with some success but Alex and Sajeela are ten times better. You’d be crazy to go anywhere else. Easily 7 stars on a scale of 5 !!

– Mike M.

– Jarlath C.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a very good experience with the law firm of Samfiru Tumarkin LLP. The appointments were easy to set up and each appointment started on time. All my affairs were looked after to my satisfaction with no surprises. All of my questions were explained to me with a plan in order to correct in my favour.

Thanks again for all your help during a very stressful time.

– Richard B.

– Deb T.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I was referred to Samfiru Tumarkin LLP Ottawa from a friend who used their services. They provided very timely, professional, and excellent advice to help when I needed it most.

– Pierre B.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We engaged Alex from the Ottawa office to help out with a pretty scary issue where my company was trying to reduce my pay significantly. I was worried that there was nothing I could do and that I could even lose my job. Alex helped me sort out my all my options, suggested a few courses of action, helped review my letters to the company and made us feel less afraid and more confident in our negotiations. I finally had someone on MY side. With Alex’s help, I received the best outcome we could have. I would hire Alex again.

– Chris B.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Being an HR consultant and dealing with employment matters for the last 40+years I have often had to engage employment lawyers if the matter is not resolved without taking it to the final step and into the courtroom. Having heard the radio ads for a while now and being a bit disappointed with how the case was proceeding in the hands of another law firm, I reached out to Alex Lucifero. To my utmost surprise after reviewing the documents I provided, Alex wrote a lengthy email offering us a very viable solution. The most important factor was Alex offered this advice free of charge. It goes to the integrity of his office. He could easily have charged us a full consultation but did not so citing that he could see that we had already spent a considerable amount with the other firm. A gesture that I have never experienced in my entire life in the HR business. Needless to say my next case will be handled by Alex for sure. His knowledge and his honesty has won me over for life. Thank you Alex.

– Ravi N.

Alex got the job done and I am very appreciative. Thank you Alex!

– Joseph W.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am so glad I did seek legal advise with regards to my employment issue. Alex Lucifero and Sajeela were wonderful to work with. Very patient, and quick to respond to any questions I had. The whole experience was very positive. I would highly recommend this team.

– Bernadette W.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had only ever used a lawyer for my will so when my employer terminated me without cause and proper notice after almost eight years of employment I knew I should seek legal advice but I had no idea where to turn. My wife directed me to this firm after speaking with some friends on a Facebook group and they have done an outstanding job for me. My lawyer Alex was very patient in listening to my story and helping me provide the necessary facts for the case. With Covid this has been a difficult year for us all but Alex persisted with the case and kept me informed of the progress over time. Most importantly Alex was able to work with the mediator to ensure that in the end I received an amount equivalent to what I should have received with proper notice. I highly recommend anyone needing an employment lawyer meet with this firm for a very pleasant and satisfying experience.

– Lauren H.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If there was a 6 star rating, this firm deserves it!! I found myself in the unfortunate predicament of having to retain counsel to negotiate a severance package. I was connected to Alex Lucifero and was very glad that I was. His calm and always professional approach, patience, and sage advice provided the much needed comfort at a time when I needed it most. I would highly recommend Alex as I am extremely happy with the outcome and can move forward with a positive outlook.

– Anita K.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This firm helped me through a difficult labor matter 5 years ago and because of the great advice I had been given I approached them again when I was dissmissed from my job “without cause”.

– Patty W.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sajeela and Alex were great to work with, very professional and efficient … would highly recommend.

– John N.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After listen to the Employment and Disability Law shows over the past couple of years, there was no doubt in my mind who I would turn to for advice when it came to termination of employment. Alex Lucifero provided me with sound advice in helping me make the right decisions. Hats off to you Alex!

– Lewis N.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After I was laid off by a well-known company, I phoned Samfiru Tumarkin LLP Employment Lawyers. I was really impressed from first moment by the quick and professional response. Within 48 hours and a phone call from one of the most professional Lawyers I ever known in my life Mr. Alex Lucifero for full 30 minutes free consultation and all requested documents done together with initial contact with the company. Then on weekly basis I had an update by his assistant Mrs. Sajeela Veldhuis and a phone call from Alex depending on the updates. Within few weeks everything was solved although it was not easy but the outstanding professionalism and honest and sincere dedication from Alex saved myself and my small family. I do thank you Alex and Sajeela as well and I strongly recommend anyone that need any help in Employment matters to contact Alex first.

– Sameh R.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex Lucifero was a consummate professional throughout, leading me through a difficult process at a difficult time. As a CPA, I recognize professionalism when I see it. While Alex’s mastery of labour law was always apparent, perhaps what I appreciated the most was his empathy and eagerness to work with me as a client to achieve the best possible outcome, which I believe we did. I would gladly recommend Alex Lucifero to friends and family. A shrewd legal practitioner with great bedside manner!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ People can be intimidated about the idea of talking to lawyers. I was one of those people before talking to Alex and Sajeela. From the first call to the end of the process they made every effort to make me feel at ease and keep me informed. At every junction, I felt that they clearly presented the options and recommendations and then followed my requests. I’ll happily call them again should the need arise.

– Derek G.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wish to take this time to thank Alex Lucifero and his assistant Miranda Scott for the tremendous job they performed in obtaining the best settlement possible. They far exceeded my expectations, not only in increasing significantly the original offer from my employer, but in every way. They were professional, prompt in returning calls, even during the Christmas holiday season, took time to carefully explain all my options and, when necessary pointed out the rights of the employer also. More importantly; their sympathetic ear enabled me to survive what was one of the most emotional moments in my life. I cannot recommend them enough. Not 5 Stars, they deserve 10!
