Click to report rating    8/23/23   5     4     5     5     5   I was very scared initially knowing about some of the possible outcomes. I also considered representing myself and not paying for the lawyer, which I am glad I did not choose to do. Working in a field where having any criminal record could mean the end of my career, Mr. Shaffie was able to deliver what he promised. The lawyer had the charge withdrawn and helped me have a second chance at my career and my life. I would absolutely recommend him especially that it was all done with a very reasonable fee. RID: 266595
Click to report rating    7/4/23   5     5     5     5     5   After consulting many lawyers who didn't want to commit to my case, only Mr. Shaffie explained to me with his professionalism, experience and knowledge the possible scenarios of my case without creating false expectations. Shayan was really compassionate and honest during these hard times and something I really appreciate is that he always kept me updated of everything whenever I contacted him with questions about my case. He also created a strategic plan from beginning to end to get rid of the false accusations against me and was reflected in the best expected result: all my charges were dropped after several months of stress and anxiety. I have no words to express my gratitude with Mr. Shaffie, he delivered more than expected and for this I will be forever grateful. Thank you! RID: 265899

Click to report rating    6/18/22   5     5     5     5     5   Shaffie was my choice after being scared by many lawyers that situation would be very complicated, I need to prepare a lot of money and a very long time to fight for the charge… And Shaffie let all my worries go off my mind after 3 months! I couldn’t appreciate enough what he had done to help me with his connections with other lawyers to take me out of trouble and the best part is, he truly believed me. He did not need to ask me too much or let me explain too much about my case. He knew where things would go to, what to expect and what the most likely result would be. He would not advertise himself as an excellent lawyer with a lot of experience and never lost a case like many other lawyers do, however showed me the reality and all the factors that could decide the outcome of the case. We were both very busy but he always kept me updated which made me completely place my trust in him. My charge was dropped after 3 months which was so quick thanks to his hard work and experience.

 12/2/21   5     5     5     5     5   Shayan is a great no-nonsense lawyer. From the beginning he tells you what he plans on doing, and he follows through with it. What I really liked was that when he couldn't pick up the phone, he would call back by the next day at the latest. He tells you what to expect and what the reality of things are without sugar coating it, and I really appreciated that. Thank you Shayan, you got me the outcome I was hoping for. I hope to not require your services again but if I do, I know who to go to. SN RID: 231477
Click to report rating    10/9/21   5     5     5     5     5   I got into a completely unanticipated assault charge situation earlier this year. Being the first time I would have such contact with the legal system, I was determined to get the best representation to extricate myself from the quagmire. I spoke to a number of lawyers within and outside my city on phone, but it was only after I spoke to Shaffie that I began to get that sense of assurance that the nauseous charge could be dropped. I settled for his services after checking out his YouTube videos; the guy is eloquent, knows the law, and possesses the grace and carriage of a persuasive advocate. My reasoning then was that, with the mannerisms and competence he displayed in those videos, he should be able to sway a Judge to his side. Thereafter, he and I agreed on a strategy that we followed over several months and which ultimately resulted in the desired end result - a withdrawal. In summary, if you ever need help with legal representation in his field, I do recommend Shaffie Law highly. RID: 230817

 4/9/20   5     5     5     5     5   I came across Shayan after I got charged with two counts of assault. In this situation I was the victim but because I ran home after being assaulted and defending myself, I was arrested. This has been a nightmare for me and was ruining my life as I am a registered teacher. To make matters worse, my charge was upgraded to level 2 assault and I was looking at jail time. He has helped me through this difficult time with the upmost professionalism. He is very calculated, smart and has many connections in the court system. He has worked very hard on my case and has gotten me down to a lesser charge with no jail time and continues to get the charge lowered as time goes on. He truly cares about your case and reassures you he is working hard. If you need a good lawyer that makes waves in the court system, this is the ONLY lawyer to choose. Look no further. I highly recommend Shayan Shaffie to anyone who has criminal charges. RID: 220854

 2/7/20   5     5     5     5     5   Shayan Shaffie was a vital part of the preservation of my future. His professionalism and dedication was beyond my expectations. Mr. Shaffie treated me like a human being, which unfortunately is rare during the proceedings. When he spoke on my behalf, he spoke about me like he was taking about his best friend. He painted a genuine picture of myself to the courts as someone who is not perfect, but still promotes positivity and encourages change in the community. He made no excuses and precisely used all available resources to obtain the most desirable results. I am thankful for your support. I am forever grateful. Thank you sir. RID: 219562

 12/6/19   5     5     5     5     5   Theres is so much for me to say but a 1000 word limit is just not enough. This man, Shaffie changed my whole life. Coming from a person who grew up playing basketball it was never a thought that i'd end of retaining Shaffies Services. My case lasted about 2/3 years and honestly I thank God that Shaffie was my lawyer. During the time the case was going on, i can say that i gave up. I never thought that there was a chance for me , could barely sleep knowing that my life could officially be taking from me... theres is so much for me to say that it gets me emotional every time but what i am truly happy about is the fact i was able to get to know a man like him. Everyday that goes by i think about my second chance that was given to me because of Shaffie. No amount of money will satisfy the debt, God bless you Shaffie, you're truly something else :) RID: 216744

I was charged with crimes that could have been determined to my life, especially in regards to my status as a new Canadian citizen. His knowledge and precise strategies helped me to obtain discharged charges, and my desires results. I really appreciate everything Mr. Shaffie has done for me. RID: 210948

Click to report rating    4/5/19   5     5     5     5     5   To all who are interested in seeking Mr. Shaffie's services, this is my experience. From the initial meeting, till the last communication, Mr. Shaffie has proven himself to be utmost professional, sincere and honest in his work and service. I highly recommend him to anyone who is experiencing distress or is in a vulnerable position in regards to the law. My former charges carried serious implications if they were left alone and not in the hands of a capable and highly talented professional. Some of the ways in which Mr. Shaffie helped me were not limited to the case but also my mental health and emotional state. He has a unique ability to empathize with clients and see to it that they are well informed and calm during the entire legal process. I felt assured whilst working with Mr. Shaffie. The legal field as many of you know is a very complicated and sophisticated one. Choosing the right lawyer can be essential in winning a case. Don't hesitate to contact Mr. Shaffie for success.

Click to report rating    2/14/19   5     5     5     5     5   I highly recommend Mr.Shayan Shaffie!! Mr. Shaffie was so compassionate in the courtroom; seeing me in such a distraught state as a mother and not knowing how the process/system worked, Mr.Shaffie took me aside and explained what was happening, what I needed to know and what I should look into. He didn't have to do that! I later reviewed his website, spoke to my son and contacted Mr. Shaffie to be our lawyer. Mr. Shaffie is a stand up lawyer! He is so compassionate and understanding, he truly cares about his clients and the outcomes. He makes your case feel like the only one he is working on. He is straight forward, ensures you understand everything he has said before moving on and Shayan is very adept with the law/criminal justice system. His dedication, patient guidance and careful planning is OUTSTANDING!!! AND in court he is respectful and professional but assertive! I am so Thankful we met Mr. Shaffie! Misty RID: 208474

Click to report rating    10/9/18   5     5     5     5     5   Shayan Shaffie is an excellent lawyer. He takes sincere interest into the lives and outcome of cases for his clients. He is quick thinking and understanding. When I went to Shayan for legal advice, he took a genuine interest in my situation and what he could do to help, given as I'm a college student working to be in a career where your record must remain clear. Without hesitation he spoke to the crown and changed the outcome of my case which could have been very damaging. I would highly recommend Shayan to anyone involved in a criminal matter. RID: 204339
Click to report rating    8/2/18   5     5     5     5     5   When our family found ourselves in an unexpected situation we luckily came across Mr Shaffie by chance. My son was facing charges in a serious situation which was totally unexpected and unusual. Although it was a long process, Mr Shaffie immediately understood that we were all new to the process and stepped up and took control of the situation. He was always available for communications and structured our case to get the best outcome possible. Having experience in both prosecution and defence was certainly an asset. I would highly recommend him while I hope we never need to use his services again. Thank you Shayan! RID: 202200
Click to report rating    7/11/18   5     5     5     5     5   I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am to have found Shayan Shaffie. Having never been involved in any criminal litigation previously, I found myself in a very unfortunate situation after having received a harassing communications charge and a breach. The texts I sent to the other party while not threatening in any nature were enough to have destroyed my professional career. My experience with Mr. Shaffie was nothing but exceptional right from the get go. Shayan was always available ,extremely kind and very knowledgeable in best ways to approach the matter. Ultimately, Mr. Shaffie saved my career. Charges by the Crown were withdrawn and as a professional working with the vulnerable sector it is imperative that my record remain unblemished. I would highly recommend reaching out to Mr. Shaffie if ever in a situation where you need the best criminal attorney. D.R RID: 201490
Click to report rating    7/3/18   5     5     5     5     5   I was falsely accused and arrested facing some rather serious criminal charges in Durham region. I had the chance of hiring Mr. Shaffie as my legal counsel. When I spoke to him on the phone, he immediately booked an appointment to meet with me and discuss my case. After our meeting, I was determined that he would handle my case. Mr. Shaffie is a very knowledgeable and determined lawyer. He explains every aspect of the case in detail, takes the time to hear your concerns and fights for you till the end. He also takes the time to update you accordingly as the case moves forward. Mr. Shaffie got all my charges withdraw within a few appearances. It was quite reassuring to have him by my side throughout the case. I now have him on speed dial just in case I ever need a lawyer again despite not living the life of crime. All and all, Mr. Shaffie is the best lawyer in the GTA hands down. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of counsel. Thanks again Mr. Shaffie. God bless, Mama RID: 201181

He’s an experienced top criminal lawyer that can get you the best results possible. I had multiple charges with very strong evidence against me and I was convinced that a prison sentence would be a consequence. He was not only successful in achieving no jail-time for me, but also ended up with a sentence that I was satisfied with. Thanks again for all your hard work! RID: 198074

He told me that he was a really good lawyer and would fight for you to the end no matter what. I have seen a lot of lawyers in my life and none of them even compare the Shayan. He fights for you as if you were part of his family and treats you the same. he works day and night to make sure you get freed or get a really good sentence; even if you are guilty or not. he works harder then anyone else I have ever met. I honestly do not like the law the police or lawyers. I have seen some lawyers screw some friends of mine over even when they know they are innocent, some do not even try there hardest to get them free, not shayan. I was charged with assault and 2 other charges that were really serious if i was convicted i would serve at least 10-15 years. Shayan Got 2 of the charges dropped I got sentenced for 3 months house arrest 3 months curfew and then 2 years probation. I honestly want to thank you Shayan for fighting for me. RID: 197584

I am 30 and I have never been charged for any criminal offence before. It's a nightmare to get charged for domestic violence just because of a small argument with my girl friend neither me or my girl friend expected that as building security call the cops. I consider myself lucky that I made the right decision to go with Mr Shaffie based on his qualification and past experience. Mr Shaffie is very supportive, caring and is available 24x7 if you have any questions, my financial condition wasn't very stable Mr Shaffie made sure that I don't stress due to money problem and offered me very easy instalment option. After the pre trial crown choose to give me probation which carries 3 year criminal record even though victim ( my girl friend ) gave statement in my favour. I was very stressed as criminal record will distroy my future plans but Mr Shaffie was very comforting he assured that we will win this case in trial. M RID: 195746
Click to report rating    11/14/17   5     5     5     5     5   I don't even know where to begin but I can tell you that Shayan as a lawyer will do anything and everything in his power to help your case get the BEST possible OUTCOME. I was charged with an offence that would literally put an end to my life and potential future had I been convicted. Shayan worked on the case while explaining me what points we were going to focus on but also worked on more issues he raised at the trial. He is a young, tremendous, tenacious, realistic lawyer, he will fairly accommodate and he is most importantly passionate about what he does. I spoke to approximately 6-8 lawyers; he is the only one amongst all who got my attention and interest. I am a people's person so I have to feel like my life is in good hands before I can retain you for this kind of matter. I would not recommend anyone BUT Shayan for any criminal defense you may require! RID: 192941

 5/4/17   5     5     5     5     5   At the time I met Shayan, I was in a less than ideal and a highly problematic situation, where I did not have any of my resources readily available. What made my situation problematic, was that I did not have an ideal background to start with, which made the case that I went through just as challenging. Shayan was knowledgeable in every aspect of the proceedings and was more than adept to guide and counsel me with all of the factors that were involved. The most important thing that I can emphasize with Shayan is this above all other defence lawyer's is this.... Shayan is righteous and dedicates himself and I am truly thankful that Mr. Shaffie was there to help, there is no amount of gratitude that I could afford to Mr Shaffie to say thank you, as Shayan has not only given me a second chance at life, but has also given me insight into my personal views about myself, which no dollar value can be assigned to. Thank you Shayan dearly and sincerely. RID: 184346

I was faced with 4 criminal charges and through Shayans patience and hard work in working with my case got the best deal any judge/crown would have given in my situtation. 3 criminal charges dropped to accept one with minimal fine and no jail time. Given the severity of all 4 charges, one being a DUI I am extremely fortunate and thankful that I hired Shayan. Shayan is very well spoken and extremely professional. He is not your typical money hungry lawyer and actually puts a bit of heart and faith into his clients. In other words he actually cares ! Shayan was there anytime I needed clarity about something or needed to chat about my case and situaton, even at 8:30pm on a Wednesday night, proving that he is very invested in his work and willing to accomodate all people's needs at all times, not just during your typical 9am-5pm hours !
