I am using Campbell Cohen at Canada Visa.com.
They seem better that average. (which is not saying a lot)
the main criteria:
1)depends were you are applying from try and find the biggest or best there - who seems to have the best contacts in the Canadian Embassy you are applying through. Ask for process times
2) Canadian immigration law firms have to join canadian government associations that regulate their behaviour, so if they can't process your visa they have to refund your fees - gives you comfort that they are bona fide
3) the best bit of advice is that once you hand over your info to what ever consultant/attourney don't take anything for granted. Go to the canadian gov website write down what is needed get a check list, put together a time flow chart of what is needed when, (somethings like police clearances can take 2 months to get). There are mile stones, like when the Canadian embassy officially accepts your application. That is when the clock starts ticking. Get on first name basis with your contact/handler in the consultancy and keep on top of your case the whole time, email, phone, query, if you don't keep your case top of mind it could go on the back burner. - Think of it as a team effort, - don't assume that your consultant knows more than you, often or most times you case is handled by a 'paralegal' with tons of files
