Without any reservations I would recommend Sunny Tathgar to anyone who is looking for a competent , caring and compassionate lawyer. His passion and dedication to his chosen profession is inspiring. We were re mortgaging our principle residence during the Holiday Season and sunny accommodated us by meeting in the evening and attending to our legal needs. I work with a cross section of professionals and society in general and Sunny is one of those rare individuals that really appreciate knowing.

i would highly recommend Natalia Velletta. I received her contact information from the Royal Jubilee Hospital after my aunt was placed in their care. The hospital gave me a list of lawyers I could pick from. I contacted 5 of them and asked them a number of questions. I chose Natalia by a long shot. I immediately had a connection with her after speaking to her just one time. I live out of province and have never met her in person. She handled everything over the phone with me. I could call her anytime and she would return my calls promptly and professionally. I even left messages on her voicemail after hours and she responded first thing the next day. She is very easy to talk to and highly professional. We worked well together. I would also like to give accolades to Cobi and the rest of the support team. Excellent job to all. I plan to use their services in the near future.

I have had the pleasure of working with Sunny for many years now. He has always acted in a professional manner, is extremely prompt and I feel comfortable sending my clients his way.
Sunny also incorporated my very first business. This is always a nerve-racking time but he made the process very smooth and was patient with me explaining all details in the contracts. I’m very pleased to have met Sunny years ago, have worked with him ever since and would highly recommend him for any of your business and personal needs.

I have worked with many lawyers over the years to help with real estate deals and Sunny is by far the best I have worked with. He is quick to respond, very reasonable pricing and when the real estate agents screw up like they always do, he is right there to fix it. I highly recommend him to both friends and family.

I found Sunny at Valletta & Co. to help my parents with their wills. Sunny was incredibly patient as he took them through the process. He even took my mom's calls after-hours in order to answer questions and work through sensitive details, which was extremely reassuring for her. I am thoroughly impressed with Sunny's work and have recommended him to other friends and family members.

I have been working with Sunny for quite some time, now. I'm very comfortable and pleased with his legal services and company. He's exemplary and professional. Has always answered my phone calls, emails and messages promptly where I don't feel like I'm harassing him and wasting his time. He takes time to explain details which really goes a long way with me. I recommend him to friends and family with a good deal of confidence knowing they'll be taken care of and in good hands! Highly recommend Sunny!

I highly recommend Sunny for anyone who is looking for a lawyer that takes pride in their work, reasonable priced and compassionate toward their clients.
He listens, keeps you up to date on whats happening, and is easy to reach. I have spoke with many attorneys and not many spend the extra time to provide reassurance in matters that involve a already stressful situation.
I use Sunny for all my business and family matters. His staff are always friendly and a pleasure to deal with.
I am grateful to have found someone like Sunny whenever the time arises because I know I'm in good hands!

Since day one of working with Sunny i have never been more pleased. He is prompt, professional and always goes above and beyond for his clients. He made the legal matters i had to deal with easy to handle and took the time to explain everything that was going on during the whole process. Would highly recommend if anyone is looking for a professional lawyer in Victoria.

Sunny Tathgar is an outstanding MODERN lawyer who has ditched outdated formalities to deliver great results.
I dont know of many lawyers who will hand out their personal cell phone numbers. That added level of client service is what makes Sunny a standout lawyer.
Reliable, kind, intelligent, well spoken, big picture understanding of legal issues and fantastic sense of humor.
I practice law abroad and have only one lawyer I reccomend to friends and family.
Victoria is lucky to have such a quality professional serving thr community!

Fantastic service and a wonderful team supporting all efforts at the Firm. Sunny Tathgar is an exceptional lawyer and litigator who goes above and beyond for his clients, very detail orientated he knew all the ins and outs of my conveyancing and rested all my fears and concerns. I have never felt more confident or secure in the abilities of another professional, Sunny was prompt with all correspondence, and a pleasure to converse and deal with.
I would use Valletta and Company for all my legal representation and notary requirements.

I had the privilege of working with Sunny when I purchased my new home. Of course, that's an exciting time but a stressful time. Sunny was able to take care of all legal aspects for us during this major milestone. It was a huge relief knowing that things were taken care of so smoothly, and his professionalism was top notch. I'd highly recommend Sunny, and would use him again in a heartbeat for any legal help I may need.

FIND ANOTHER LAWYER TO REPRESENT YOU. I would give negative star if possible. Absolutely the worst office to deal with. Sunny should not be doing this as a profession. He does pay attention to detail. Doesn’t reply. With our current deal he has fumbled the contacts every step of the way, causing great stress on all parties as he has pushed everything to the deadlines. He never reads his updates. He doesn’t know his deadlines even though he was told before hired and it’s clear in the contract he doesn’t read. He leaves office during mid negotiations, having all parties waiting to finish real estate deal, by 4pm( & no secretary). It has been like a practical joke dealing with him. We wish we had never called their office. I would highly recommend calling someone else if you A) want your contracts done correctly B) want a responsive lawyer to represent you C) want things done properly, legally and responsibly. He should not charge for his services, as he is incompetent in every way. Maybe hes retired as has no secretary and leaves office by 4pm in the middle of deal between law offices with deadlines. How he got hired to a firm is beyond me. STAY AWAY AND FIND ANOTHER PERSON/FIRM TO HIRE!!

I really appreciate everything Sunny has done for us from Wills to Purchasing our new house, and now helping me with selling my first home by myself without a realtor.
As you know, the housing market in Victoria is crazy and you need to get everything done within a short period of time to get the house you want. This can be very stressful!
Sunny's attention to detail, quick turnaround time, and communication throughout the process has been amazing and helps calm any stress I have.
Thanks so much for everything!!

I worked with Jade Fraser for a complicated Family Law matter and she made sure to handle everything confidently and swiftly. Her professionalism put my mind at ease with the entire process and she provided me excellent advice that ensured the outcome was equitable for me and my child. Velletta & Company are lucky to have her and I wish I never have to speak with her again, but if I do I will do so very happily. Thank you!!!!

Few days ago we needed a legal advice on family law issues. We just use Google and call to Velletta and Company, we was told that first 15 min is free and after that it will be $ 150 charge for half and hour appointment. It sounds reasonable and we book an appointment. We have talk for about 10 minutes with Mikle Jakeman. We had We haven't have all paperwork needed ,so we can't have any answer. Suddenly legal secretary of this firm meets us at the exit and ask for credit card for the retainer $1.500. We said that not sure about all of it ,because couldn't even get an answer. We had called back to the office few minutes after and said that we will be not interested to search our issues any more and ask to transfer money back on the Visa. We was told that that's impossible now after 10 minutes or less, we have to wait until they issues a check back to us. After few days and couple of phone calls we got money back minus $200 for half an hour consultation? Is that to much money for the 10 minute they had spend with us.? We will never recomend this lawyers the way they conduct their business. Easy money.!! We filled like we was drugged throw the mud.

Oh my gosh, mine and my partners mortgage was an absolute nightmare. Sunny received our documents mid morning the day before closing. Sunny stayed late to review our documents, and met with us at 9pm just so that the documents could be signed in time. he then personally delivered them to his assistant at 10pm to ensure that our lender would receive them before the day of closing.
Sunny worked tirelessly for us, and despite EVERYTHING going wrong, he got us our home. I cannot put in to words how grateful I am for having had such a loyal, hard working, and kind lawyer to have supported us during this incredibly challenging yet rewarding time.
I expressed many concerns and anxieties during the 24 hours leading up to close and Sunny was always available to offer constant reassurance and support, reninding us that he had it covered, and sure enough, he did.
Thank you Sunny for your hard work and dedication on our behalf. When we pick up our keys tomorrow morning, it will be because of you!
Cheers to you!!

We used Sunny for the closing of our new home. Do to a bunch of complications with or mortgage broker we had to get the deal closed in a very short time. Sunny went above and beyond to make this happen. He communicated with us the whole way through and insured us he would work miracles to close the deal. He delivered! I can't say enough good things but a HUGE thanks to Sunny.

Met with Larisa Anderson, about US work VISA's for entrepreneurs (specifically B1 and E2), as I was opening a business in the US. Unfortunately she didn't seem to have much depth of experience in this area. The cost was $150 for a 30 min consultation, where I was essentially provided information that was freely available on the US Immigration's website. There was nothing that I couldn't have looked up/printed off myself. Whenever asked a question that was detailed and specific to my situation, she unfortunately did not know for sure, or could not provide an answer if it wasn't in the materials from their website. In other words, there was no value added. For the high price of a consultation, that is what one expects. I had to seek the services of another immigration lawyer in the US, and immediately the difference in experience and knowledge was apparent: the US lawyer was able to answer the questions I had about my situation and 'grey areas' concisely. Whilst Larisa was polite, professional, and scheduled an appointment on short notice (pros), all of which I appreciate, unfortunately she didn't appear to be experienced in work VISAs/Immigration Law for Canadian entrepreneurs opening US businesses, and didn't provide me with anything I didn't already learn from reading the US Government website (cons). There was no value added. I feel that the right thing to do might have been to mention this was not her area of expertise and advise to seek a different attorney and save the time and $ instead of setting up the appointment. I would advise Canadian entrepreneurs to seek out an alternate Immigration Attorney who has the expertise and experience in this specific area. (Specifically B1 and E2 VISAs).

I had a really positive experience at Velletta and Company, and particularly with Sunny Tathgar. He made my ICBC claim so easy and it really took off after I handed it off to a professional. I was getting nowhere on my own. My case was handled quickly and efficiently; I felt like I was a priority. The end result was as good as I had hoped for. The great service was a bonus. I'd really recommend Velletta and Company and Sunny Tathgar.

I went to Valletta in regard to a wrongful termination. I saw Eric Pederson. He was professional, honest and really made a stressful situation a lot easier to deal with. I ended up getting a really fair settlement and in a short period of time. My case was an odd one and he really figured out a way to make sure I was compensated fairly. I was very impressed by the rest of the staff at Valletta, as well. Top Notch.

I looked for a lawyer with "good reviews" on the web and found Eric Pederson. With a few exceptions I find that other people's experiences usually match my own. I found Eric very knowledgeable and assisted me in standing up for my rights. From my experience with Eric he does what all lawyers should do but unfortunately many don't. The fees were fair and I wasn't loaded with any unexpected other charges. So if you need a lawyer you can trust I would recommend Eric.
