“If I knew anyone that was looking for an immigration lawyer, Larry Butkowsky would be the first one I’d think of. He’s been able to very quickly clarify my questions about my immigration process so I could proceed with confidence. He’s been very easy to talk to and knowledgeable. I can’t imagine a scenario where I wouldn’t recommend him first.”

“I just found Mr. Butkowsky to be really honest. He was upfront about our situation and told us what he could and couldn’t do. It is easy to get answers when I have questions about stuff really quickly. I’m glad we went there.”

“I was in a unique situation because my chosen career made it hard for me to meet the physical residency requirement in Canada, as I travel a lot outside of the country working for a U.S. company. After meeting with Larry, he put together all the supporting paperwork to organize me and explain to Immigration Canada the situation. Not long after I first met with Larry, my PR Card was in the mail and I was able to start my new career in Canada.”

“Larry Butkowsky has helped us through our refugee protection claim. My daughter and I came to Canada a few years ago looking for safety which we could not have back in our home country. Moving to a new country was an overwhelming experience; we also found ourselves homeless and in a very difficult financial situation. I’m very grateful to Larry for his hard work and support; for his determination to win; for the very professional and delicate way he handled our case.”

“I have known Larry Butkowsky professionally for over 20 years. During that time, I have referred countless immigration and refugee clients to him. The feedback I have received from these clients about Larry’s services has been outstanding. Larry is knowledgeable, thorough and extremely capable. He handles his clients with patience and compassion. From what I have been told, he also responds to his client’s inquiries in a timely manner. I feel fortunate to be able to refer immigration and refugee clients to Larry. I highly recommend his services.”

“It is not easy to come to a new country as an immigrant. If you face any type of immigration related complications, your worries will be multiplied and can lead to great anxiety. If you can find someone to offer you advice and guidance, this person can be a pathfinder for the rest of your life. There are many lawyers and law practitioners out there but among them, for me, Larry Butkowsky is the best. He is someone who really works for you with all of his heart. He is really committed to helping you understand your immigration related issues.”

“Larry Butkowsky shows respect and passion for his profession. He does not make promises. He explains the law, what can be done, your options, and his opinion, and then he lets you decide. If you hire him, he does his job. Simple.

I have relied on Mr. Butkowsky for work visa applications for my French translators on several occasions, and not only does he always get back to me as soon as possible, but he answers my questions in laymen’s terms, and his processes have always been accurate. I may be stressed over an application, but once I speak to Larry, I relax.

I have also referred him to friends and he has demonstrated his professionalism in every case. His diligence, honesty and compassion resulted in obtaining landed status for my friend and her family, allowing them to make a permanent home in Canada.”

“Larry Butkowsky is an honest, straightforward lawyer and I feel grateful to have found a lawyer like him. I hired Larry for my refugee case, and during our first hearing, things did not go very well; I was not able to convince the judge of my position using the evidence that I had. Then, the Refugee Board had trouble verifying some of the documents I presented, due to their own error. I was ready to give up, but Larry told me not to. He was able to review the whole case, determine the reason for the verification problem, and bring it to the judge’s attention. He asked for another hearing, and we were given that chance. Everything went well, and if it wasn’t for Larry, I wouldn’t have won my case.

I could write a book about the good experience I had with Larry, and words cannot express how grateful am I for what he did for me.”

“Larry has provided almost two decades of service to me and my family. Larry is accessible, friendly, kind, and caring. It is not about the money for Larry. It’s hard to find someone who will put all their energy and focus on a case like he does, and who will care more about how you’re coping with the process than about how much money he will earn at the end of it.

Larry is an integral part of my Canadian success story. With his help, I was able to experience formal education for the first time in Canada; ultimately, I went on to become a teacher. It would not have been possible without Larry’s guidance.

Thank you, Larry, for all you have done for me and my family. In almost two decades of service, you have changed our lives for the better. You were my first teacher in what it means to be Canadian: respecting diverse cultures, loving freedom, providing opportunities for others, and caring enough to act on those values. Words cannot do justice to the gratitude I have for you.”

“When I went to see Larry for the first time, I didn’t believe anyone could help me with my Immigration troubles. He was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and most importantly he listened to me. That was the best advise ever from the best immigration lawyer in Canada. Thank you Larry Butkowsky for helping me become a new Canadian Citizen.”

“Larry is knowledgeable, friendly, honest and extremely capable. He also responds to his client’s inquiriesimmediately. He never makes promises, he tells you the truth and if he will be able to help you or not. You will feel right away that you can trust him and he will deliver results. I will always recommend him.”

“My husband and I met Larry in 2008-2009 and felt extremely comfortable with using him as our immigration lawyer. He was very straight up with us from the first moment we met in his office. He told us pros and cons and didn’t diddle daddle around with our future outcome like other lawyers do as from our previous experience. He was friendly and welcoming and told us step by step what would probably happen next in our process which we appreciated very much. We are very happy to have had a positive outcome with our process using Larry to represent us.”
