YLaw Group

Trudy is fantastic. Professional, very knowledgable and fair. Please request her if you can.

Dana Rogers and Yurim Larsen are compassionate and effective. They helped me with a civil matter involving family, and their level headed support during an emotional time helped me get my loan repaid. The costs for legal services were fair, reasonable and well worth it. I would highly recommend them.

I had used Mr. William DeWolf as a mediator to assist with a high conflict separation. There were several issues such as imputation of income and child support arrears. Mr. William DeWolf assisted the parties in reaching a settlement outside of court, which benefited all parties involved. I would highly recommend Mr. William DeWolf as a mediator.

Mr Wormeli must be one of the smartest people I have ever met. He is balanced and caring and sees things froma a million angles then boils it down and makes things clear. In his hands the you get the best outcome and also the right outcome.
ALso the global team at Ylaw are extremely professional hard working and skilled.

Not very professional. I had mediation with William and he allowed the other party to bring somebody else into their room without my knowledge or consent, which is against their mediation agreement. Then I received client information from him.

William is the best family law attorney I ever worked with. He is not only extremely knowledgeable in the legal dispute in terms of co-parenting, but also has been highly sensitive to my concerns in regards to what's the best interest of the child. Him being always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings has been great support for me to deal with the stress. I highly recommend him.

Not a good experience. The lawyer I had Kathryn wasn't even good for affidavits. I had to make her edit multiple multiple time because she could not understand what I was saying, which costed money each time. There was still discrepancies in her work that was not true because she didn't listen to me multiple times. Then told me to tell the judge it was my fault because her and I had a misunderstanding.
During our calls her dog was always barking in the back ground.
But what really got me was I paid almost 10,000 for trial and we settled outside of court.that being said we never went to court yet she still burned all that money then hit me with another bill over 3000.nothing was done and still charged more, without even going to trial.
DO NOT recommend this firm unless you have deep pockets and enjoy to watch your representative struggle with the incompetence of a simple task youll have to correct multiple times and still fail at thier task, but they wont forget get to charge you all the more.

I had the privilege of working with Will DeWolf at a previous law firm. He is an exceptional lawyer and a wonderful person. I continue to reach out to him when I’m stuck or need a second opinion. Some lawyers spend hours searching for answers that he seems to know off the top of his head. As a sole practitioner, I feel very fortunate to have Will in my support network.

I would have given them zero star if I could. I hired YLAW to do a cohabitation agreemenet for me last year and they were terrible! The lawyer I worked with admittly did not know how to redline changes in Word and end up missing changes in every single draft. Doesn't law school require basic MS word skills? ! We would discuss the changes on Zoom before each draft, and she made changes without my consent or even informing me. Because I lost trust in her quality of work after a while, I started to double check each draft and caught that myself. My partner's lawyer also caught that the wrong law was referenced and shaked his head, ' where did you find this lawyer LOL. ' There were also conflicting clauses withint the same section of the agreement. The list of mistakes just go on. It was unclear to me whether she was imcompetent or plainly careless or both but the service I received was unbelievably unprofessional and huge waste of money. I fired her before the service was concluded as I could not trust a lawyer like this can protect my interest. Avoid them at all cost!

I've never had to hire a lawyer before so I had a lot of beginner questions, and they were all answered respectfully in a way I could understand, which I appreciated! Very professional but also very approachable.

I can't thank Vivienne Stewart enough for bringing resolution to a very frustrating and infuriating situation. Her persistence, professionalism, communication and caring resulted in an outcome that enabled me to finally move forward. Knowing you have a trustworthy and exceptionally skilled lawyer on your side is so reassuring - I highly recommend Vivienne and YLaw!

I am in the final stages of finally finishing a long, , drawn out separation & property division with YLaw and I am so grateful for the assistance I received. I came from another law group who was happy to take my money but got me absolutely no where. After almost 3 years, I decided to move over to YLaw who got me sorted in just over a year and a half - including during the craziness of Covid! I am very happy with how things went and that I am finally able to close the door on my past. A huge thank you to Amber Cheema & Amy McKeough who helped me tremendously.

Would definitely recommend YLaw to anyone going through family proceedings!

Thank you Dana for your dedication and efforts for navigating me through the complexities of Family law and the BC court idiosyncrasies.
Matters of court procedure can be very stressful and emotionally charged. Your guidance was most helpful and reassuring.

Mrs Yousefi is truly one of a kind lawyer who is a pleasure to work with. She is passionate about her job and justice. Her priorities are to make sure her clients are treated with dignity and fairness. She is not in the job for the money and her genuine satisfaction rests in knowing she is doing her best, and we all know that now a days that’s hard to find.
Her energy and enthusiasm creates a reassuring mindset that the case will be handled in the best possible manner within her numerous abilities.
Her staff are also understanding and compassionate and very professional. Leena and her staff, you are awesome.

YLaw is the best family law firm in Vancouver as far as family law goes. My experience was seamless, all assistants were professional and my lawyer resolved my case is a very quick and efficient manner, despite international difference. Highly recommended.

Very impressed with the professionalism and quality of service that YLaw provides. Very knowledgeable and responsive. This is an amazing law firm!

Thank you Leena for helping my mom and the family for putting a end to a chapter of hardship we went through. If it weren't for Leena and her team we would have been lost. Her understand and guidance and professionalism help us start a new chapter in our lives.
Thank Leena and team for everything.

A great big thank-you to Raha Seyed Ali and her team! Going through a divorce can be a very stressful time but Raha made it seem not so bad. While using a collaborative process Raha was able to negotiate what I believe was an agreement that was fair for both sides. She was very professional but very calm and very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend Raha to anyone looking to go through the divorce process.

While in a moment of darkness, Leena walked holding my hand like a law master guardian angel, with a mix of a top professional in the knowledge of law, and a heart as big as a lion.

Best family law firm I’ve dealt with. The entire process was very effortless and smooth, they completely took the pressure of me and my family. We felt like we had their entire team on our side and we never felt rushed, they listened to what we needed and helped us achieve that. I would give them 10 stars if I could, I highly recommend YLaw!

I heard about Leena 2 years ago, I have been waiting to see her for more than 2 years. It was worth the wait. She is the best, very knowledgeable, confident and caring.certainly meets the reputation she has of being the top lawyer.
She spent time to review my file before our first appointment and she pointed out many things that no other lawyers ever told me and had the answers to all my questions
I am a different person from the minute I walked out from your office.
I can not thank you enough Leena.

YLaw completely changed the way I view lawyers. They listened to me as any good friend would and I genuinely felt their personal care towards me. I felt that my lawyer is taking on my pain as if it was her own which is something rare and beautifully human. Not words I would previously use to describe this practice! She was my representative and my rock!
Thank you for making me feel that I’m not alone as I navigated through one of the hardest chapters of my life.

I don't think I can find all of the best words to express the gratitude I have for Leena and the team of professionals at YLaw. I also want to call out Victoria as well for her professional communication.

To put it lightly, I was going through the most stressful, emotional periods of my life. Friends and family can only offer so much support and most likely they are unable to alleviate the many unknown factors and potential scary outcomes that are constantly running through your mind.

Leena took the mystery away. She helped me achieve peace of mind by providing me insight to end goals. I always felt she was open, honest, empathetic and even compassionate when I needed it most.

All I wanted was a fair result and I believe Leena worked hard to provide me with the necessary outcome I needed for the peace mind to move forward.

I absolutely recommend YLaw and fully intend to continue working with them whenever I need their help.

Amber was great to work with.
I had to work on a separation agreement and I chose YLaw help me with my mediation.
She responded to all my requests very quickly, she was very personable to talk to, she had all the answers to my questions, she seemed to truly understand my situation and she was instrumental in helping me achieve a settlement I felt was fair.
I would recommend this group to help with family law matters.

I highly recommend Quinn McRae for your Family divorce matters.

My situation was really unique as not only was i trying to settle my family affairs but i am also protecting my self from an Ex spouse whom at every cost was hell bent on making my life extremely difficult.

Quinns got the tools and experience and skill set to put you at ease so you can go back to enjoying the things in life that are important to you and let her worry about the legal matters.

I also like to add to this review that my experiences with Quinns assistant Amy along with the rest of Ylaws staff have been absolutely tremendous. It’s a powerhouse team, and a Dynasty you need at your side.

Thanks again Quinn for all your help

Kind Regards

Jon bennett

I consulted with both Quinn and Amber on a family legal matter. They were extremely helpful and I was able to get answers to all my questions. With this information, I was able to reach an agreement and save a lot of money in the long run. Thanks again!

I was able to get an ideal outcome from the guidance Quinn gave me. She was easy to talk to and was always quick to respond when I needed her advice. I recommend Quinn to anyone looking for ways to stay out of Court.
Quinn for the win!

I don't typically write reviews but I found important to share my experience with YLaw Group.
Amazing is the word that comes to mind after a long haul I had with other law firms! I apologize in advance if I create more work for you Leena, but oh, you are "the beast" when it comes to solving problems. Not to say, she stands out from the crowd of all other lawyers (believe I had a few before I met Leena) as carrying, passionate about YOUR individual and unique case. She make the process soo easy that we both could not resist to share some good laughs along the way. Put it this way, when you have to share your personal life and all "dirty stuff" with someone you don't know, you get cold feet a bit and tend to sort of not open fully (natural instinct) but Leena makes it flawless. Her problem solving is creative and "protectively aggressive":)
I really hope noone needs to go through lawyers services but you just have to have to meet her (sorry Leena.more work.take it easy:). Amazing human being! Went above and beyond. Settle within 2 weeks all the matters that were drugging for more than 7 months. How amazing is that!
Oh, and I would also like to mention her supportive team members who were fast, knowledgeable and on top of things as well.
I have been referred to YLaw Group and now it is my turn to spread the word.
Thank you!

This firm is by far the best one in Vancouver. They have won many awards and will fight for their clients till the end. Highly recommend.

I am extremely happy with my experience at Ylaw. I am thankful for my lawyer, Amber Cheema, who helped me navigate my legal issues. She was empathetic, honest, and knowledge. Every step of the way she was communicative and direct with me. She helped me come to an agreeable resolution and I would recommend her as your lawyer. Thank you for everything!

Leena is absolutely first class and cares about her clients' well-being first - not money. Leena could have made well over $150,000 by recommending a long drawn out court case. Instead, seeing the toll this was taking on my Mom, she recommended a settlement, and we will forever by grateful and appreciative of her knowledge/support/guidance. Leena is awesome!

My case was hopeless as i was stripped away from seeing my son at birth nor having contact with my son after birth. With severe accusations from the opposing party i felt doomed, scared, hopeless and quite honestly terrified as to how to even begin defending my self from this false accusations. Meeting Leena yousefi at Ylaw face to face was enough to strip away every fear and trepidation i had. Leena was firm, honest, caring and exceptionally experienced in her field.she cares about you! Not your money nor her self but you! This is why i recommend Ylaw Group for any family disputes you may have and need an honest allie by your side. I will recommend and use Ylaw group to anyone! Thank you guys!
ps: Thank you to Victoria Leena's assistant what an amazing human!

I recently hired Jasmeet Mangat for my family law matter. On the first two PDF’s she created for me to apposing counsel she made numerous mistakes which I proofed, corrected and sent back to her. After a 5 hour delay on a time sensitive matter she served the two PDF’s to apposing counsel and to a health professional both with errors. I raised to her professionally via email that this was not the standard of care I expect and if further errors were made in legal documents I would look for alternative representation. She seemed to react emotionally at this time claiming that she could no longer represent me if I didn’t have faith in her. I explained further that never should PDF’s go out with errors and that as long as she was able to maintain the standard of care her rate dictates all would be well, however she seemed to not want to be questioned at all and dropped me in the lurch of my family matter. I believe these errors and her lack of attention during a time sensitive matter deeply weakened my case in our family matter. Very unfortunate. Would definitely not recommend. Low attention to detail and sensitive to her standard of care being called into question.

** In Response to Owners baseless claims, below and attached in photos is the email in which I question Jasmeet's standard of care as you can see "threatening emails" is certainly not an accurate claim whatsoever. I always spoke to Jasmeet with the upmost respect and believe it is well within my right to question her attention to detail when she serves documents asking apposing counsel to respond by 3PM to a timely custody issue at 4: 49PM coupled with an other improperly addressed and served document.

Never once did I ask Jasmeet to do anything "Now" I guess as a law firm you can just write whatever you like and not show substantiation by hiding behind confidentiality?
Really glad this is all coming to light in this way so that future clients can be warned of Jasmeet Magnats standard of care as well as YLaw's without basis response. Isn't a false claim in print considered Libel?

Here is my email, would love to know which aspect is deemed threatening?

"Jasmeet,
After speaking to my good friend who’s a policy lawyer he suggested I let you know the following.

I’m extremely disappointed that the request I made at noon asking for the formal letter to Dr. **** (which consisted of changing one name only) was not done until 4: 49pm after multiple attempts on my end for contact and was done improperly.

In conjunction with the time span mistake in the letter to **** lawyer after many edits already on my end I am starting to lose faith that my case will be properly addressed in your care.

I want to note that if this standard of care continues I will look to switch representation. I would also hope your billing is reflective or of your errors Friday.

Lastly I would like to be made aware if you do not have the time or focus to
properly address and communicate with me on my case. As of Friday I felt your lack of focus created a detriment to my position and prevented me access to gaining the images which seem to be the only way to disprove her injury report as per the demand for a truthful account in our consent order.

Thank you,
Talia"

My family law case has involved an exceptionally unconventional and uncooperative respondent. Quinn's expertise, hard work and dedication has led to a successful resolution for my case.i am grateful for it and allowing me to start to move on with my life. I highly recommend this law firm

I spoke with Jasmeet and got amazing advice regarding a separation agreement. She was very knowledgeable, and effective in communicating what I would need to move forward. Best money I have spent to date to remove questions and anxiety in the face of a challenging separation.

I was extremely pleased with the team at Ylaw, they managed to negotiate a settlement quickly which would have gone through the courts with my original lawyer. Ari Wormeli is incredible with his knowledge of family law.

After having a bad experience with my last lawyer, I found Leena very helpful. She is a professional, smart and knowledgable lawyer. My complicated case has been done in less than one year, while the other party was totally uncooperative. I felt peace of mind after she took over my case. She finished the case in the way that I had less financial trouble. I really appreciate her compassionate and professional support.

Leena is the best family lawyer I know in Vancouver. She handled my international divorce case perfectly from the beginning to the end. She is extremely sharp and talented at what she does. My case was high conflict because my husband chose to make everything difficult. Without Leena by my side i would have been completely lost given his tricks. I got my fair share at the end and specially my freedom. Thank you Leena and YLaw for everything you did for me. Highly recommended.

Abib Ngom has been an absolutely phenomenal and integral asset to the success of my family law litigation. He is caring, ethical, pragmatic, and absolutely unflappable. His forthright advice was not always what I wanted to hear but rather what I needed to hear; the success we had tells the whole story. He was always very well prepared and knew the details of my case inside and out. Furthermore I always felt that he had the best interests of my family at large in mind - not just my own interests which I'm very grateful for. I'll also say that his knowledge of the application of the law seemed very well developed (to my untrained eyes) and wherever he felt there was gaps he reached out to what is very clearly a very educated and professional team of lawyers at YLaw relying on other lawyers specific areas of expertise to augment his own. I really felt like I had the benefit of a whole team of experts on my side.

Thanks Abib, I really appreciate all of your hard work, time, and caring.

Ari is a great lawyer. At times of desperation and despair during my divorce, I am happy that I found such an experienced, and powerful lawyer in my corner. He was knowledgeable, experience, relentless, well-spoken in the court room. Thanks so much and good luck to all.

After being served with divorce papers and having my life turned upside down, I scheduled an initial consultation with Jasmeet Mangat. I was flooded with emotion and anxious, but I was struck by Jasmeet's superb communication skills and calm demeanor. She is human valium!

A week or so later, I wisely decided to retain Jasmeet as my lawyer. Our objectives were to minimize litigation and costs and to focus on best interests of my young children. I could not have chosen a better lawyer.

Her advice to me boiled down to my being quiet and being patient while she deftly and strategically handled the details. My parenting time started at 16-84, increased to 33-67, and then finally to a shared parenting arrangement and payment of child support by the final family case conference.

She and Leena helped me avoid trial, which saved hours of stress and heartache for all involved. Thank you and thank you on behalf of my children and for the kindness and respect with which you displayed to all parties.

Quinn took the time and effort to truly understand my case, and was compassionate and caring while handling it. I was lucky to be in such good hands, and highly recommend her services.

I cannot overstate how relieving it was to have this firm behind me during recent events. Leena knew exactly how handle the situation and delivered on all expectations. I hope I will not need to go through anything like this again, but if I do I know who exactly I will be calling.

Leena, and her excellent staff got me through my divorce from an extremely uncooperative and difficult partner with my best interest in mind. My emails were answered quickly, and I was never left hanging. She provided the calm during the hurricane in my life. Thanks again for your help.

Leena is a shark. She is also very compassionate and knows her craft very well.
When your partners proves to be a manipulative greedy a**, it is reassuring to have her by your side fighting tooth and nail to get you the justice you very much deserve. Thank you for what you do. God bless.

I can’t say enough positive things about my experiences with Quinn McRae at ylaw. Her integrity, honesty, communication, planning and preparation were all first class all the way. I am filled with gratitude and appreciation for her efforts with my case. The outcome could not have been better for me and my two daughters. I highly recommend her services to anyone and everyone who is dealing with a psycho ex!

I contacted Ylaw over a year ago to help me with an extremely high conflict separation. Abib Ngom took on my case and was a life saver. He is highly educated and dedicated to his job. Abib consistently worked to try and resolve my case. Although many roadblocks were thrown our way, Abib worked through it with class, intelligence, and an incredible work ethic. He was 100% devoted to helping me get what I was owed and deserved. Abib's laid back personality often calmed my nerves. I would highly recommend Abib to anyone needing legal assistance and I will definitely use his expertise again in the future if needed.

Thanks Abib and the rest of Ylaw staff. You're all amazing.

Kristen Sperle

Thanks to Jasmeet Mangat’s hard work and dedication my family and I were able to get the resolution we needed to move forward. Jasmeet’s incredible mediation skills and strong attention to detail allow her to easily navigate through stressful negotiations. I am truly grateful to Jasmeet and would highly recommend her services.

I can not express my grattitude towards Ms. Mc. Rae, she is very proffessional, she explained everything very clearly and she understands my case very well. She provided me with legal advice, she is not just a good lawyer, she is an excellent lawyer, Thanks Ms. Mc Rae
YLaw is a very Professional Firm.

What can I say? The Lawyers at YLaw are incredible hardworking people. As a client they kept me up to date, and answered my questions with such high amount of detail so that they made sure that I understood what was happening the whole time. Any concerns I had were addressed with extreme care. Thank you YLaw
