Marissa BastidasWhy I Think Iler Campbell is Swell ... and Deserving of an Award of Excellence for Client Care
I have had the opportunity to consult with many of the fine lawyers at Iler Campbell over my 30 year career as Executive Director of a small non profit. AIS provides housing and support to persons with mental health challenges who have experienced homelessness. We own and manage four small apartment buildings in the communities of Riverdale; Beaches; Annex; and Downtown Toronto. As we gradually and steadily grew over the years, we found many situations that required the skilled guidance of legal expertise.
Matters relating to: real estate transactions; lease negotiations; ‘sticky’ tenancy matters; ethical issues related to accepting donations from service users; by law advice; reviewing construction advances; human resources conundrums; and dealing with Contractors who don’t honour their commitments, have all been expertly managed by a group of committed lawyers who understand the nuances of non profit governance.
To affirm that a law practice is part of an Executive Director’s tool kit for managing the ups and downs of a non profit is an understatement. Over all these years, Iler Campbell’s customer service has been consistently above average. When I call for guidance, it is often because a crisis is looming and we want to be proactive in our response. For the most part, I am immediately connected to a lawyer and the consultation begins. Together, we manage the legal issue with grace and humour. And I get a good night’s sleep.
As we value this prompt attention to our needs, we have continued to be honoured to be represented by Iler Campbell in our legal matters.

Hearthmakers Energy Co-operative
Stephen SottileWhen I approached Brian Iler back in 2004 or 2005 about an unfortunate situation Hearthmakers found itself in, I knew that your firm had a reputation for investing in good causes.
I had no idea that Iler Campbell would go to the lengths it did over 5 years, taking risks few other firms would take in support of a small co-op, to help Hearthmakers achieve a resolution. Every person I came to work with at Iler Campbell was competent, compassionate, and unyielding in their support of our small co-operative. You were each pleasant and professional to work with, and conducted this case with integrity of the type not always a given in my past experience with corporate lawyers.
To the whole Iler Campbell team, THANK YOU.

Toronto Artscape
Celia SmithWe have worked closely with the team at Iler Campbell for several years and their level of service and attention to detail has been extremely helpful as we navigate the tricky waters of non-profit property development. Their recent assistance on developing a robust concept for affordable condo sales to artists was invaluable. The team includes enough variety of talent and experience to tackle the wide range of projects facing Artscape, yet they are nimble enough to spring into action when most needed.

Project Bookmark Canada
Miranda HillWhen I researched law firms for my hoped-for charity, Iler Campbell was the name I kept hearing recommended. Now I know why. The team at Iler Campbell was exacting in helping me set up my non-profit and then in determining the best language and explanation for our charitable application. And it worked. Just a few months later I got the call—we had been approved for charitable status on our first application. Thank you, Iler Campbell for helping Project Bookmark Canada move smoothly from concept to reality.
