Me Lawrence Al Kabain, lawyer

When a contract, a property, or a claim goes wrong.

A lease gone sideways, a latent defect, a denied claim, a stalled estate — tell me what happened in 15 minutes, no charge.

How it works

No surprises about fees

Most people hesitate to call a lawyer because they don't know what it will cost, or even whether they have a case. The first call exists to answer exactly those two questions.

  1. Fifteen minutes, no charge

    By phone or video. You describe the situation, I ask questions.

  2. A straight assessment

    What I make of the file, what options exist, and what each would involve — including when it isn't worth pursuing.

  3. You decide what happens next

    If you want to move forward, the mandate and fees are set according to the nature and complexity of the file, and agreed with you before any work begins.

About

You deal directly with the lawyer handling your file

I have been a member of the Barreau du Québec since 2023, and I practise on my own. There is no intake layer: the person you explain your situation to on the first call is the person who works on your file.

I hold a law degree from the Université de Montréal, and I served as in-house legal counsel at Sodexo and at Aegis FM before and during the development of my private practice. That means I've seen how organizations approach a dispute from the other side of the table — useful when the party across from you is an insurer, a commercial landlord, or a supplier.

What I don't handle

Better to say so now than to waste a call. I don't take mandates in the following areas:

  • Criminal and penal law
  • Family law (divorce, custody, support)
  • Tax law
  • Immigration
  • Class actions

If your situation falls into one of these, mention it at first contact and I'll point you toward the right resource.

Tell me what you're dealing with

Fifteen minutes, free and without obligation, to understand where you stand and what your options are.

The first call does not create a lawyer-client relationship and is not legal advice.
