Tim Cockayne, Chief Executive Officer
I cannot thank Scott Thomson and the team enough for their quick, professional, and highly effective legal support. From the very first conversation, Scott provided clear guidance and reassurance during what was a very stressful time for me. His expertise and attention to detail resulted in an outstanding outcome, the matter against me was successfully withdrawn within just three weeks. I am incredibly grateful for the firm’s dedication and efficiency, and I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable legal representation.

AL,
My experience with Baybridge was excellent, this was the first time I had been involved in a legal matter. Scott Thomson was my Lawyer and he was perceptive to every question and explained the entire legal process thoroughly. Scott’s attention to detail played a major role in the positive outcome of my case, Scott reviewed hours of legal documents and presented a strong defence in court. If I didn’t have a professional and dedicated lawyer like Scott, my case could have resulted in a vastly different outcome. I highly recommend Baybridge, and Scott for anyone that wants to be fully supported in their legal matter and have the knowledge that the best team and legal representative will be there to get you the best outcome and guide you through what can be a highly stressful experience.

As a company, we were looking for a well-respected firm with strong ties to franchising. Baybridge actively supports our company’s growth through their proven franchise systems and legal advice. They have contributed to many of our successes and been vital in assisting us throughout our growth.

Chris Mavris, General Manager
I was referred to Baybridge through a family friend. My need for their legal expertise came about from an issue of misrepresented figures in a business acquisition I was involved in. For nearly six months, I worked closely with Rita Khodeir to navigate the dispute. Throughout this period, Rita and her team, were exceptionally professional in the due diligence, information collection, client communication and consideration of our risk. The outcome that we were able to negotiate for our dispute was nothing short of excellent. I truly know that this could never have been the case without Rita and the team at Baybridge supporting the outcome. If you are need of legal advice or a legal team, I would highly recommend talking with the team at Baybridge.

Their promptness, friendly nature, and commitment to our success make them not only easy to work with but also trusted partners.

I, along with my wife Avril, have been working with Marwan Kojok since the late 90s when acquiring our first franchise business. It was a constructive process and, more importantly, the start of a very long-term business relationship that has grown to family friends. We have been well guided and advised over the years by Marwan and his team, and they have been instrumental in assisting us in establishing and building our franchise chain. Our success is measured by the people surrounding us, and we include Marwan and the Baybridge team in that equation. Good, sound, practical and commercial advice is difficult to come by, but this has never been a challenge for Baybridge. We would highly recommend the team.
