Our family had a very positive experience working with Peter Lillico for our intergenerational cottage transfer. He has extensive knowledge in this area and is very professional to deal with. He explained our options in clear language and provided various tools (information sheets, worksheets, etc.) to help us further familiarize ourselves with legal concepts and clarify what we collectively wanted to achieve. His responsiveness to follow up questions was also greatly appreciated. We found Peter's services to be of great value and we felt well accompanied during our decision making process for this important family matter. I would certainly recommend him to other families in similar situations.

What does any smallish city need? Lawyers! If you're getting drunk across the street at 180 and you want to smash some guys face in, we'll now don't! That's right. Just take out a huge amount of money and get lawyers to handle it... Or... Or.... Smash him in the face. Either way you going to have to deal with a lawyer!
I found Peter Lillico expert on cottage successions matters. He has published in Cottage Life magazine.His seminar where we were introduced was well done, concise and informative. His work for us after the seminar was very timely and very good value for money. He acted professionally and courteously throughout the process. I can’t think of a suggestion for improvement We were very glad to have found him as the succession mater had been weighing on our minds for a few years Thank you Peter
Lillico Bazuk Galloway Halka has taken care of my family's legal needs for approximately 10 years. I have had the pleasure of having Peter Lillico and Peg Galloway prepare documents for me and the work has been top notch. This firm was recommended by a dear friend and although I live two hours away, I consider them worth the trip. When it comes to legal documents, mistakes can cost significant pain and grief, so attention to detail is crucial and this firm gets it.
Thank you so much for your patience and your expertise at managing to get an agreement that is mutually agreeable to all concerned. Not an easy task at times. I appreciated the various options that you provided to me so that we could move forward with the CSA agreement. I am very happy and pleased with the clearly stated CSA vision statement which will ensure that the cottage property will continue to be a gathering place for future generations of the family.
We worked with Peter Lillico and Peg Galloway on a very complicated and fraught PoA and sale of properties. They both handled themselves, and the difficult situation, with the upmost integrity. They were both responsive and understanding and thankfully were able to navigate an intense situation for our family. They are the only lawyers I would work with in this area.

Lilico ruined my family. Dad, who was grieving moms passing and on the verge of a breakdown, was looking for info on a cottage succession plan for his 3 sons. There were already some minor tensions regarding the cottage usage and priviledges, that just needed time and communication to be worked out. Lilico - who we never met as a group, and who I never spoke to - did the entire deal remotely via email - had each of us send him confidential wishlists for the cottages future. Brother 1 (me) wanted to wait, take things slow, mend fences, partner up with whoever was willing...and compromise (if not - sell the cottage to an outsider). Brother 2 wanted nothing to do with the other two brothers, just wanted the cottage all to himself. Brother 3 was fed up with Brother 2's 'God complex' and just wanted to cash out. In the end, after weeks of no responses and silence, Lilico emailed Dad out of the blue saying he sided with brother 2 and convinced him that his wishes were the direction to take (as opposed to Dad fixing his bloody family first). From there - everything happened extremely quickly, with little to no negotiation amongst all parties. Dad did flip flop several times on whether he was doing the right thing or not, however Brother 2, who lives within 10 mins from him sold his case like a champion. Fast forward two years later and Brother 1 is not on speaking terms with Brother 2 OR their father. Brother 2 is making life at the cottage for Dad, who has a life interest and bedroom at the place - hell. Brother 3, cashed out immediately and left the family. Dad is lonely and heartbroken. Mom is turning in her grave. Thanks for nothing Lilico.
