Testimonials

“Alfred & Smith Lawyers represented me after a devastating fire a year ago. I couldn’t be happier. Alfred and his staff have negotiated a far better settlement than I had hoped for. He has been in contact with me through out the the whole process keeping me informed on the progress of my claim. Thank you Alfred for all your hard work and effort.”
“Shortly after the Fort McMurray wildfires, we retained Alfred & Smith Lawyers. Their team helped us recover significantly more money from the insurance company. We had several issues with our insurer, from smoke damage to our personal contents, to getting the appropriate expenses reimbursed. Alfred & Smith Lawyers’s involvement not only sped up the settlement process, but they negotiated a deal that exceeded our expectations. Their legal fees were very reasonable and I would recommend them to other families in the Fort McMurray region or elsewhere.”
“Alfred & Smith Lawyers helped me after a few months of back and forth with my insurance company. The insurance company refused to pay out my full contents coverage. I hired Alfred & Smith Lawyers after receiving an offer I was unhappy with and they were able to get my contents coverage paid out in full. Dealing with the insurance company was incredibly frustrating. I wish I had hired them sooner! I highly recommend their services to anyone dealing with a residential loss.”
“I hired Alfred & Smith Lawyers after having problems with getting my mass evacuation coverage. As a single mother with a young child I felt I was being treated unfairly by the insurer. Alfred & Smith Lawyers was able to get me and my son a settlement that was much more than the insurance company was originally offering. Thank you for all your help!”
