About HNT Law

HNT Law helps people buy, sell and refinance homes in Ontario, and it backs that real estate work with wills, estate planning and notary services. Individuals, families and businesses turn to it for property deals, estate planning and probate matters. It serves Guelph, Toronto and clients right across the province.

Hai Tran founded the firm. While still a law student, Hai Tran trained as a mediator with St. Stephen's Community House, learning to help people settle disputes with care. After earning a law degree at Osgoode Hall, Hai Tran articled with a local firm focused on estate planning and real estate, then went solo to build a practice that's hands-on and puts clients first.

Running HNT Law isn't Hai Tran's only role. Hai Tran is also an assistant professor at the University of Guelph's Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics, in the Department of Marketing & Consumer Studies, teaching business and consumer law, real estate law and Canadian business law. That teaching sits on top of two earlier University of Guelph degrees: a bachelor of commerce in marketing management and a master of science in marketing and consumer studies.

Clients can work with HNT Law in Vietnamese or English, and Hai Tran has served people in both languages all over Ontario. As an immigrant raised by immigrants, Hai Tran knows how helpless an unfamiliar legal system can make someone feel, so the work includes explaining how that system operates, not just fixing the problem. Meetings happen in person or virtually, real estate documents can be signed remotely, and the first consultation is free.

Practice areas

Buying and selling a home

On a sale, HNT Law reviews the paperwork, searches title and prepares the closing documents. On a purchase, it prepares the mortgage documents, checks the title for liens, reviews the contracts and can arrange title insurance. Title transfers for homeowners have been part of the practice for years.

Condos and pre-construction

For condo buyers and sellers, the goal is a deal that closes on time with no roadblocks along the way. Pre-construction purchasers get help from the first look at the builder's legal documents all the way to closing.

Refinancing and financing

HNT Law handles the paperwork when clients refinance a mortgage or line of credit and aims to have the new loan close on schedule. It also helps clients weigh their financing choices, from a private lender loan to a HELOC on their home, and pick the one that suits them.

Wills, powers of attorney and estates

The estates side covers powers of attorney naming someone to act if a client can't make decisions, estate plans built to keep taxes on beneficiaries down, and estate administration aimed at settling things promptly. HNT Law has guided hundreds of clients through estate planning.

Notary public

Hai Tran holds a notary public licence from the Province of Ontario. HNT Law notarizes true copies, signatures and other documents that need a witness.

How HNT Law works

Every file at HNT Law starts with getting to know the client: needs, goals and worries. From there the firm builds a plan around that particular situation. It commits to fees that are fair, transparent and easy to follow, and to being up front about a client's options and how each step will go.

Hai Tran built the firm around what years of real estate files revealed. Across hundreds of matters, clients kept raising the same two fears: that they couldn't reach their lawyer when they needed to, and that legal jargon would leave them confused.
