We do a lot of estate planning and Powers of Attorney work at LLDG. One thing we always tell clients is that fraud against seniors is more common, and more creative, than most people expect.

A recent story out of Huntsville, Ontario is a reminder of that. It includes a 101-year-old woman, a stolen cheque, and a 45-year-old charged with fraud.

If you haven't talked to your family about protecting their finances and documents, now's a good time.

(Facebook will not let us post the news source, but if you google "101 year old Ontario woman victimized in alleged cheque fraud" you should be able to find the article.)

We’ve been packing our LLDG mugs with little Mother’s Day pick-me-ups for the moms in our client family. A lip balm, sweet treats, and a wipe or two for the messes she didn’t make.
Tag a mom who deserves one! I’d tag my own but she’s not on social, and the computer is her sworn enemy.
Happy Mother’s Day from LLDG!

Nothing says “we appreciate you” like the coffee you’ll need after your family asks about your will.

75 years in Etobicoke has taught us that family is complicated, estate planning shouldn’t be, and everyone deserves a good cup of coffee.

Happy Valentine’s Day from LLDG.

This year we sought change and, with that, new energy and momentum.

What stayed constant was the quality people around us.

We’re grateful for a team that shows up with care, competence, and humour.

We’re thankful to clients who trusted us.

And we’re proud to add two 2025 CommunityVotes - Etobicoke awards to the shelf.

We also quietly grew the team this year, strengthening how we serve clients going forward.

2025 was about steadying the ship.
2026 is about moving it forward.

Thank you for being part of the journey.

We're so proud to announce that our firm has been awarded first place Platinum in not one, but two categories at the CommunityVotes - Etobicoke awards: Best Lawyers and Best Estate Lawyers.

What makes these awards truly special is that they come directly from you—our clients and neighbors in the community. Unlike industry awards decided by panels or committees, CommunityVotes - Etobicoke reflects the voices of the people we serve every day. That means the world to us.

Every family we've helped navigate a difficult estate matter, every client who trusted us during life's most challenging legal moments, every person who took the time to vote—this recognition belongs to you as much as it does to us. You've reminded us why we chose this profession and why we're committed to serving our clientele with integrity, compassion, and expertise.

Thank you for placing your trust in us, for sharing your stories with us, and for allowing us to be part of your lives during times when you needed us most. We don't take that responsibility lightly, and we're honored to continue serving this community for years to come.

Here's to many more years of helping our neighbors, one family at a time.

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of Jack Graham, a founding partner of our firm and a true pillar of the Etobicoke legal community.

Jack was a pioneer who, alongside Donald Dewar, had the vision to establish a thriving law practice here in Etobicoke at a time when the legal world was centered exclusively downtown. His legacy isn't just in the firm he helped build, but in the countless lives he touched along the way.

Those who knew Jack knew his fierce advocacy for clients—he brought a passionate, no-nonsense approach to every case. But what truly set him apart was how much he genuinely cared. He found every client interesting, treated everyone with equal respect regardless of their circumstances, and took a real interest in the people around him.

Many of us, including my father Fred, owe much of our career success to Jack's mentorship and guidance. Even for me, meeting him at the tail end of his career, I experienced firsthand his genuine interest in helping shape the next generation of lawyers.

Jack was a happy guy with a big heart who loved what he did and the people he served. He'll be sorely missed by all of us.

Thank you, Jack, for everything.
