About Rabideau Law

One of the highest-rated law firms in Waterloo, going by its Google reviews.

Rabideau Law is a real estate and corporate law firm in Waterloo that's been operating since 2009. It works from an office in Uptown Waterloo and serves clients across Ontario, with a core focus on residential and commercial real estate, corporate law, and mortgage enforcement. The firm was founded by Geoff Rabideau, its principal lawyer and owner, who has practised law for over 18 years.

Much of the practice is built around residential real estate handled for flat fees. The firm publishes fixed prices for purchases, sales, and refinances, and each package includes a free virtual signing appointment, so a client can close a deal without driving to the office. The team is multilingual and offers flexible meeting times and remote signings, which is how it reaches buyers and sellers well beyond Waterloo Region. A second lawyer at the firm handles real estate alongside family law and wills and estates, and the principal also runs a related closing service called Custom Closing.

The neighbourhood

The office sits at 62 Regina Street North in Uptown Waterloo. The flat-fee real estate work and remote signings reach clients right across Ontario, so a good deal of the practice happens by document and video call rather than in person at the Regina Street address.

Frequently asked questions

Does Rabideau Law charge flat fees for real estate?
Yes. The firm publishes fixed fees for standard residential purchases, sales, and refinances, and each package includes one free virtual signing appointment.

I'm a first-time buyer in Waterloo Region, can Rabideau Law help?
Yes. The firm handles residential purchases for first-time buyers as well as investors, and its blog tracks buyer-relevant programs like Ontario's temporary new-home HST rebate.

Yes. Along with residential work, Rabideau Law practises commercial real estate, corporate law, and mortgage enforcement, and one of its lawyers also handles family law and wills and estates.
