About Cobbett & Cotton Law Corporation

Cobbett & Cotton Law Corporation is a law firm in Burnaby, British Columbia, with a history that goes back to 1954, when Bill Cotton opened a practice on Hastings Street. Randy Cobbett joined Cotton's firm in 1990, and after Cotton's death the practice continued under the Cobbett & Cotton name and grew substantially over the following decades. Cobbett retired in 2021 and left the practice to Jeff Kuhl, a University of Manitoba law graduate who is now the firm's principal. The firm today has four lawyers and a notary public, working out of an office on Carleton Avenue in Burnaby.

The firm describes its real estate practice as one of the largest in British Columbia, handling residential purchases, commercial leasing, and financing transactions for both lenders and borrowers. Its lawyers also handle wills and estate planning, family law agreements such as cohabitation, marriage, and separation agreements, and business law work that includes incorporations, share and asset purchases, and corporate reorganizations. One lawyer at the firm is fluent in Cantonese. Readers of the Burnaby Now newspaper have voted Cobbett & Cotton the Best Law Firm in Burnaby every year since 2000, and the firm belongs to the Better Business Bureau of Burnaby and Vancouver.
