There are few people that I would entrust with the outcome of my child custody case - especially one originating from beyond US borders. This lawsuit presented unique challenges for myself and Mr. Gold, but he was the ever-present 'voice of reason' that keep me grounded and sane throughout. Lorne was professional in his conduct, sincere and tender in his approach, and became one of the most acclaimed and respected people in my life. From the outset, he fought for as desirable a position as possible for myself and my son (and even took the liberty of making bold decisions on my behalf when I was uncertain). Needless to say, Mr. Gold succeeded in delivering on all his promises (and more) and I will continue to trust him with any legal matters that may arise in the future. Lorne, Cat and Cathy - you guys are miracle workers and angels. We are so grateful!

I have never had to hire an attorney before and I dreaded having to search for one and feared hiring someone that did not meet my expectations and make my divorce more painful than it already was. My wife’s attorney handled all the paperwork and drafted the judgment and Lorne reviewed all the paperwork to ensure that I was being treated fairly. My goal and my wife’s goal was to have our divorce done as quick and as painless as possible and most importantly to preserve our friendship. Lorne was quick to reply to my emails, return my phone calls, and meet face-to-face when needed. He went out of his way to review and revise (over a weekend) the judgment drafted by my wife’s attorney after her attorney sent Lorne the draft just two (2) business days prior to our court date. Both my wife and I were thankful for Lorne’s involvement with our divorce and for taking the time during that weekend to finalize the paperwork so our divorce would be final on Monday so we could both move on and not endure another minute of being involved with a divorce. Even though our divorce was amicable and my wife and I remain close friends, it was emotionally brutal and I am so thankful that Lorne represented me and made our divorce less painful than what it could have been. My utmost sincere thanks to Lorne for his hard work and compassion!

Lorne helped my daughter with a domestic violence case. His professionalism, support and expertise were exceptional. His personal concern for my daughter's experience and his guidance throughout the process made us feel not only relieved but helped with the closure my daughter needed after her ordeal. I would highly recommend Lorne Gold and will call on him again should the need ever arise.

I had Lorne as an attorney 10 years ago. He did a great job for me. He always had my best interests in mind. He also kept me level headed. When going throgh a divorce emotions can run high. Lorne was always there to keep me in check when I was starting to let my emotions take over rather than common sense.
Thanks,
Brian Sommers

Lorne took a real interest in me personally. He never gave up and was correct in his total approach. He was dedicated to insure that my result was one that I could live with in the future with satisfaction. I was very pleased with the fact that he had economic penalities placed against those who were less then honest. I was not an easy client, it was not an easy case, but Lorne always stayed focused. I still call Lorne for other legal advice out side the scope of the work which he was first retained.

Lorne is simply hands down the lawyer you want in your corner. I particularly chose Lorne for his expertise in child custody issues and dealing with very complex divorce issues, and he delivered every time. Cool under pressure, extremely knowledgeable and very empathetic, I would and have recommended Lorne directly to several close friends. It is obvious walking into any courtroom that Lorne is both known and well respected amongst his peers.

I highly recommend Lorne B. Gold, Attorney at Law, to represent you and to obtain the optimal outcome you require and expect in your divorce. He was highly recommended to me and he gained my confidence in our initial consultation. It is my experience that:
• He is exceedingly knowledgeable and thorough.
• Very importantly, he returns calls and responds to emails always within 24 hours, usually far less.
• I appreciate the fact that rather than dictate what needs to be done, he discusses, listens, and recommends. As a client, you feel ‘in charge’ and that he is providing a service for you; he treats you with respect.
• When your case requires the expertise of other professionals he makes the appropriate contacts.
• His follow through in all regards is timely and complete.
• All documents are submitted to you for review and approval before filing with the court.
• His interaction with the opposing counsel is appropriately respectful, however he is always mindful of his desired outcome on your behalf.
• His appearance and conduct in court is confident, respectful, and professional.
• The fees for his services are not low, however they are consistent with the quality of service you receive and the confidence you feel in the final outcome he obtains.
In summary, without reservation, I recommend Lorne B. Gold, Attorney at Law, for all matters related to divorce.

Gaining custody of my children was the most stressful and emotionally draining time of my life.
I hired Mr Gold after I had been taken for a ride from another family law attorney that cared more about her monthly statements then she did about my family. Mr Gold took over my case and got it settled. (In my favour I must add). He did more then just get my ex to come to terms with what we wanted. He drafted a very specific and well written custody agreement that left little room for future litigation. Many attorneys talk a good talk but its whats on paper that really matters. Mr Gold is an excellent communicater that is respected in the courtroom and by his peers. I was so happy with the results I received on my case that I referred him to a close family member. He was retained on a post divorce judgement that was nearly impossible to reverse and once again Mr Gold did not disappoint. I would be happy and privelaged to recommend Lorne Gold on any divorce or custody matter. He is truly one of the best!
