“Invaluable advice…”

David Himelfarb has been the corporate lawyer for Forest Hill Real Estate Inc. since he incorporated the company on March 1st, 1985.

Forest Hill Real Estate Inc., commenced operations with two agents working out of a small office on Lonsdale Avenue, in Forest Hill Village, in Toronto. The company has grown to 18 offices in Ontario, with 750 agents.

David has provided our company and a large number of our agents, and clients, with invaluable advice that we have heavily relied upon at very critical times. Not only is David steeped in a thorough understanding of real estate and business law, he also displays an uncanny and innate understanding of human nature and psychology. David has assisted and been at our side through every stage of expansion of the company. He has been involved with strategic planning, contract negotiations, as well as dispute resolutions. He is the consummate professional and a pleasure to work with.

David has a no nonsense approach and he tells us exactly what we need to know without dancing around the issue.

In those cases where David did not undertake the specific legal task at hand, he made certain that we found just the right legal practitioner or other professional to assist; and, David stayed involved in the process to completion to ensure that there were no loose ends. It was a great comfort and of great assistance to have someone at our side who personally cared about the outcome of the matter.

I am able to recommend David, and the services he offers, without reservation and in the absolute knowledge that any client will be well served with David’s advice and assistance in resolving any legal problem.

I have known David Himelfarb for a very long time and I know him to be a very passionate, devoted, intelligent, honest and creative individual and lawyer.
