    Harrison was fantastic to work with. He answered my questions quickly and clearly, explained complex regulatory issues in plain language, and gave practical advice that saved me time and money. He was upfront about pricing, followed through on everything, and was genuinely helpful beyond what I expected. I highly recommend Substance Law to any startup or small business.

    I had an excellent experience working with Harrison at Substance Law. From our first consultation, he demonstrated professionalism, patience, and a genuine commitment to helping me understand the legal requirements for my business.

    What impressed me most was his dedication beyond the initial consultation. He consistently followed up with the City of Ottawa on my behalf, kept me informed throughout the process, and made sure we received the clarification needed to move forward.

    He also went the extra mile by introducing me to valuable industry contacts and potential suppliers, something I truly appreciated.

    Harrison is knowledgeable, approachable, responsive, and genuinely interested in helping his clients succeed. His assistance has been extremely valuable to me as an entrepreneur.

    I highly recommend Harrison and Substance Law to anyone looking for a lawyer who not only provides professional legal advice but also takes a genuine interest in their clients' business goals.

    Thank you, Harrison, for your outstanding service and continued support!

    Working with Substance Law was a breath of fresh air. I’ve had poor experiences dealing with several other law firms that were slow to act, happy to take initial meetings, and then completely went cold. Substance Law delivered exactly what I needed.

    Their responsiveness from day one was exceptional. They drafted my legal document with an impressively fast turnaround, all while maintaining complete professionalism and attention to detail. No endless delays or chasing required. If you want efficient, reliable legal support without the usual runaround, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

    Excellent experience working with Harrison Jordan and Substance Law. We engaged Harrison to prepare a legal opinion concerning our Canadian MSB operations and cross-border services. He was highly professional, responsive, and thorough throughout the entire process. The final opinion was clear, well structured, and addressed the relevant regulatory considerations in a practical and comprehensive manner. We were very satisfied with both the quality of the work and the communication, and would gladly recommend Harrison and Substance Law for Canadian legal and regulatory matters.

    As a first-time fintech founder preparing an MSB registration for a Canada–West Africa remittance corridor, I booked a one-hour consultation with Harrison at Substance Law, and it reshaped my entire regulatory roadmap. In sixty minutes he clarified our registration scope under both FINTRAC and the RPAA, corrected several assumptions that would have cost us months of unnecessary sequencing, and flagged an instrument we thought was mandatory but wasn't saving us real money before we spent it. What impressed me most: he answered follow-up questions by email with the same precision as the paid hour, delivered the referrals he promised the same day, and was refreshingly candid about industry realities and even about where his own services might not be the cheapest option. That kind of honesty builds trust. For any money services business navigating Canadian registration, this is exactly the specialist you want in your corner. Highly recommended.

    Great services! Mr. Harrison was very helpful, he doesn’t rush you, takes his time explaining, and is very accommodating. Recommend his services to anyone that needs it.

    I had a great experience working with Harrison at Substance Law. He helped me with a legal opinion for my startup, covering several complex regulatory issues related to payments, privacy, banking data, and the structure of the platform.

    What I appreciated most was how practical and clear his advice was. He didn’t just explain the law — he helped identify structures that could actually work in the real world and was very straightforward when something needed to be changed or clarified.

    He was also responsive, professional, and took the time to correct misunderstandings before they became bigger issues in the development of the product.

    I would highly recommend Harrison to founders or businesses looking for clear, commercially minded legal advice, especially when dealing with fintech, payments, or regulatory matters.

    5 stars.
