Moving To Canada: Should You Hire A Lawyer In Canada Or In Your Country?

Moving to Canada is a significant transition for individuals and their families. It can be a complex process when regulations continue to change over time, and having a comprehensive understanding of the details related to moving to Canada can be difficult for the general public.

Many wonder if they should hire a lawyer to help them complete the process. Additionally, some wonder if they should hire a lawyer in Canada or in their home country. The following will help you determine the best choice for your needs.

Do You Need a Lawyer at All?

Having a lawyer to help you obtain residency or citizenship in Canada isn’t required. However, when people choose to go it alone, they often end up making mistakes that cause unwanted delays. In the worst cases, their applications may be denied due to some unforeseen circumstance or oversight.

The process of moving to Canada requires an investment in time and money. In order to make the process efficient and more likely to succeed, you can hire a lawyer to help you understand all the requirements you’ll need to meet. This may also end up saving you money on costly appeals, or obtaining legal advice after the fact once you run into problems.

An experienced immigration lawyer understands all of the regulations and laws related to your move. The procedures and policies that are in place are regularly updated, making it difficult for the layperson to know what they should do to effectively process their application.

A Canadian immigration lawyer has a much better understanding of the relevant policies and is equipped to provide the proper guidance.

Finding a Lawyer in Canada

Finding an experienced immigration lawyer in Canada is the first step to making your move an easier process for you and your family.

If you know any individuals who have successfully relocated to Canada, find out who they would recommend. Referrals are a great way to find a reputable lawyer who can help you through this complex process.

Online resources are also available to help you find the right lawyer when moving to Canada. There are many websites related to Canadian immigration and citizenship.

Find sites that provide listings of Canadian immigration lawyers. Visit their websites and view the content they’ve provided. A more experienced lawyer will have plenty of resources available on their website to ensure that you are choosing the best person for your needs. They should also have reviews from successful clients explaining the benefits of their services.

Look for lawyers who are specialists in their field and practice only immigration law. These lawyers will typically have a higher degree of expertise compared to lawyers who practice in several areas of law.

Benefits of Hiring a Lawyer in Canada

The success of your application for residency or citizenship will depend on the proper processing of all relevant documents and procedures. A Canadian lawyer understands what’s required of applicants for a successful application approval, and can help you identify the many factors that may not be immediately apparent to you when submitting your application.

Hiring a lawyer ensures that you have the best chances for the approval of your application and provides you with clear and expert guidance for the future. Contact our team today for more information.

I went to see so many people in Toronot and Mississauga looking for the best approach but unfortunately most of them did not know what to do or their interest was money only once you pay they do not care if you get your PR or not! Until I met Jeffery and Crystal so professional! Always updating me about my status! Crystal explained to me the steps A to Z !! Thankgod my application was approved. Do not hesitate to reach out to them cause they know what they are doing and they are very professional!!!! I’m so glad I filed my application with them.

The Matthew Jeffery Law Firm is the best Immigration Law Firm. I have used their services for about 10 years (for PR Card renewal, Citizenship, etc…) The Law Firm has great staff, which respond in a timely manner, but more importantly they have been consistently giving a 10/10 performance in all the matters I needed help with the last 10 years. Recently one of the Law Firm staff, Crystal Xu (RCIC), did an amazing job in getting Citizenship approved for one of my family members. I recommend anyone looking for great service for their immigration matters or family members to contact the Matthew Jeffery Law Firm right now! W-

A year ago the immigration lawyers at Mathew Jeffery's firm told me that the process of application and approval for my residency status in Canada would take about a year, and like clock work the approvals arrived from Ottawa TODAY almost 12 months later. My team was led by Crystal Yu with the support of Min Kim, Maryam Haddad, and Lina Zhang. Each responded professionally, quickly, and very empathetically as the process at times seemed daunting to me. All in all I am incredibly grateful for the Matthew Jeffery law firm's level of professionalism..

I hired the services of Mr. Jeffery and his team to help me with my express entry federal skilled worker program application. Mr. Jeffery was very friendly and he gave me good advice about preparing my immigration documents. Throughout the entire process, the help of Crystal was indispensable. She was very organized and had a strong attention to details. She was also very supportive and responsive to all my inquiries, especially during the troubled times of the COVID pandemic. Overall, I would highly recommend the services of Mr. Jeffery's firm; they are very professional and knowledgeable of their trade. I thank them from all my heart for all the support they gave me.

Mathew Jeffery's office and team, and Crystal in particular are very professional, I can not emphasize enough how important it is to have good lawyers and good people look after your case. I applied for citizenship 3 years ago, and I was always kept informed by Crystal of my case, and even during the hard times of covid and being abroad, she was always there for my questions and give me reassurance. I never got a complain or any request beyond the original agreement. Thank you so much for your help Mathew Jeffery's office and Crystal.
