What our clients have to say

Dear C&G

This has been a strange year for everyone as well as a time for reflection. I wanted to take some time to make sure that you know how grateful I am to you for your help following my car accident. It was a very difficult time for me as my life changed from what I had worked toward and expected it to be, to something that now looks quite different from that. I have now come to not only accept that my life is different than the one I had planned. Thank you for everything you did for me and for our family. Your expertise as well as your kindness are very much appreciated.

AH

Thank you so very much for taking care of me.

My life has changed 180 degrees from where I thought it was going before my accident. The day it happened I never could have imagined that years later I would still be dealing with what happened in just a few seconds.

I so appreciate the obvious hard work by each of you. The magnitude of what you have done for me is beyond words.

I have become an extremely emotional person that truly can’t function under any kind of stress. You have made it possible for me to continue to take care of myself by providing the financial means to do so.

Thank you,

Ps-

Dee-Ann, I truly hope you realize that you saved my life every time you talked me through that city!

I experienced many uncertainties, but Cuming & Gillespie was there to take charge of all the legal aspects, as well to insure us with a peace of mind and of the road ahead. Their objective was to see that I focused on my medical issues and health as best as I could, and to maximize my recovery. It took everything I had to do that.

Referral Testimonial

“When I got in my accident I was unsure about what to do and worried about being fairly compensated for my severe injuries. After calling several lawyers I called Cumming and Gillespie and I just got a better feeling from them. Throughout the process they were always quick to answer my questions and respond to my emails. I was happy with my settlement amount and feel confident I received more than I would have if I were to settle without a lawyer. I’m hoping I never have to use their services again, but I would definitely use them again if needed and highly recommend their services.”

Client Testimonial

“When I was involved in a serious car accident, my life changed forever.  It quickly became apparent that I was going to have a long recovery ahead of me.  As a lawyer, I knew that I needed counsel that I could trust to protect my interests and pursue my claim in a highly competent manner so that I could spend my time and energy on my physical and emotional health instead of my legal situation.  I had many high expectations, in particular regarding strategy and communication, and the lawyers and staff of Cuming & Gillespie met them all.  Over the years that ensued, Craig was always available to deal with any matter on the file and his advice on my claim was excellent.  I never once felt the need to second guess how the file was being handled, which is a challenge for many lawyers.  Legal Assistant Dee-Anne was invaluable to the process – extremely organized, responsive, and friendly.  When the claim was resolved, the best possible outcome was achieved. The manner in which my file was handled was without par and the firm’s commitment to my claim was evident in the outcome.  As such, I would highly recommend Cuming & Gillespie. -T.M”

Personal Injury Claim Testimonial

“I feel very fortunate to have found Cuming & Gillespie. After meeting with several injury lawyers, my husband & I agreed Cuming & Gillespie were by far the best. Choosing Cuming & Gillespie was one of the best decisions I’ve made since the accident, and tell people over and over how fortunate I am to have the best injury lawyer in the city (and probably Western Canada). C&G are very approachable, honest, and genuinely cares about his clients’ well being. They went far beyond our expectations in handling the legal case as well as in referring me to top medical providers and providing vocational / occupational services along the way. Thanks, I’m confident that you negotiated the highest possible settlement and always acted with integrity! J.P.”
