My life, once filled with joy and contentment, had been shattered.In my darkest hour, I sought solace and hope in the form of legal representation, which is when I was introduced to Igor.

Igor is a fantastic lawyer and helped me through a very difficult time. From the start of the engagement to resolution. I would highly recommend Igor Vilkhov. Highest quality legal services and professional representation. Thank you Igor Vilkhov.Milos HINICMilos HINIC ★★★★★ Professional, patient, kind, informed, articulate. I am trying to find the right words but feel like I am falling short. Simply put, Igor Vilkhov and his team saved my life, career and family. I was wrongfully accused then indicted on what felt like every offence in the law book and felt hopeless, depressed, lost and resigned to ruin. I spoke with four lawyers before Igor and they just reinforced my feelings of doom with exuberant fees and gloomy predictions of outcome.From the very first phone call with Igor, EVERYTHING changed. It is difficult to explain but his vocal tone, cadence, vocabulary, patience when listening and calm calmm demeanor made me feel like there was NOTHING to worry about. I felt like crying for days leading up to that phone call because of depression and I cried when the phone call ended because of exhaustion followed by RELIEF (I am 36 years old and do not remember the last time I cried before that).From the moment I retained his services, Mr. Vilkhov and his team took charge of the case and other than listening to updates on the progress, my 'job' was done. Igor's initial calm demeanor never ever changed and every one of my inquiries was promptly addressed and explained so a child could understand. The outcome: ALL CHARGES WITHDRAWN. Life back in order, like nothing happened.Igor, I owe you my life and because of that I will never waste another minute of it. I am so grateful to God, and so grateful to you and your team I could cry again.I had disappointing experiences with a lawyer in the GTA and also another city in what feels like another lifetime now, but the most honest way to describe my experience with Vilkhov Law is it was PERFECT.I sincerely believe Igor Vilkhov is the best lawyer in Canada and highly recommend his services to any person alive. All is not lost when you are indicted, the system is designed to make you feel like it is.Igor, thank you again from the bottom of my heart. You are to law what Djokovic is to tennis, Pele to soccer, Ali to boxing !!!God bless you and your loved ones! I wish you all the best things in the worldSpasibo. 🙏MilosWaheed KhanWaheed Khan ★★★★★ Best lawyer in Toronto Ontario Canada has saved youth and young men from unfortunate circumstances to live a free and luscious life filled with hope and prosperity, would recommend 100 times very professional and time mannered.M CzekM Czek ★★★★★ Mr. Vilkhov and his team are absolutely amazing. Throughout the whole process, he communicated exceptionally and had my charges dropped, thankfully.He is the right choice. Don’t look any further.Rachel SnyderRachel Snyder ★★★★★ Igor Vilkhov was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had a substantial amount of fraud charges and I was looking at some very serious federal time for the crimes I committed. Igor helped me so much in every way possible. He was persistent with what he thought was a reasonable sentence for me when it came to his meetings with the crown and I nearly cried when he told me I was looking at a joint submission of Time Served position. Igor gave me hope when I had seriously started to run out. He got things done in very timely fashion and not once did I worry or have to wonder what was going on with my case. Igor always answered my calls and kept me in the loop every step of the way. I would recommend Igor Vilkhov as a lawyer anyday. I will definitely be using his services should I ever need to in the future. Thank you so much Igor for everything. I am home with my family now and I couldn't be happier. This is all a big thanks to you. God bless 🙏Tracey AshTracey Ash ★★★★★ Mr. Vilkhov represented my son through this traumatic experience resulting in the best case scenario we could possibly hope for! Charges were dropped! My many thanks to him and his team for their understanding and going the mile for my son and our family I can't thank them enough!💜d Freemand Freeman ★★★★★ Igor saved my life. In 2020 I was charged with SA. SA is a serious criminal accusation with life-changing consequences if found guilty. The criminal justice system is sometimes flawed, and I was afraid to fall through the cracks. With strong legal rights afforded to complainants, I needed a SA experienced lawyer. With no prior contact with the police or the court system, I was scared and lost and didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t sleep, eat, or think, and felt like I was living in a nightmare. I needed a very experienced criminal defence lawyer to deal with this situation. I retained Igor Vilkhov in 2021. He was very supportive and knowledgeable about the charges I was facing, and I knew instantly I had a determined and experienced lawyer on my side. He is highly articulate and shows strong professional acumen towards his work. My case took 2.5 years because it went to trial. In my trial, Igor was prepared and was dedicated, and worked tirelessly. My case went to a 4-day trial with the crown having 2 witnesses. I faced significant jail time and the strong possibility of being added to the SO Registry. He devised a legal strategy and supported it with strong case law. His attentiveness and determination led to a successful defence and acquittal of all the charges with the verdict being very one-sided. The stigma of being charged with a SA loomed over me and I thought my life was over. He showed empathy for my case and never judged me. I owe Igor everything. I have a daughter and a baby on the way. His diligence and work towards my case gave me the chance to be with my family. Igor Thank you for helping me get through one of the most difficult times in my life. God bless you.Mary FisherMary Fisher ★★★★★ He is a great lawyer and works hard for his clients and is a really nice person to work with and he is easy to talk to. All around really great lawyer to have in your corner.Samara PierreSamara Pierre ★★★★★ I got referred to vilkhov law with great reviews but still skeptical knowing my legal matter was very serious and I had no hope. But after the first meeting with Igor vilkhov I felt very positive about my legal matter. He took all my stress away and handle everything efficiently. What an amazing and understanding lawyer! 5 stars!!!!!js_loader
