I think you should be able to call CIC and connect to their department which deals with PR cards and, be able to change your address. I had done it but, I had also not used a lawyer for my application.

Before I could change my address they asked info to validate my information. I do not know whether using a lawyer would affect validation process.

Congrats on the landing... and sad for the experience. I did my landing on 19th of this month in Carway and had a pleasant experience. I think, just like the VOs of CIC, the landing experience depends on the individual Border officers who attend to you.

And as mentioned here, you have an option to change your mailing address through the ECAS status page. Also, please call the CIC number and confirm whats the best thing to do.

Also, I have updated your case here http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/pr-landing-experiences-please-add-it-here-t168722.0.html;msg2660433#msg2660433 please feel free to add more info if you'd wish.
