Martin Cohan Associates

About Martin Cohan Associates

Martin Cohan Associates is a family law practice based in downtown Hamilton, Ontario, made up of two lawyers, Christopher Martin and Alexandra Cohan, who practise in association rather than in a formal partnership. Each runs a separate professional corporation, C.R. Martin Law Professional Corporation and Cohan Law Professional Corporation, sharing an office at 25 Main Street West. The firm handles decision making responsibility, parenting time, child and spousal support, property division, and child protection matters, and one page on the firm's site describes the two lawyers' combined experience in family law as over 32 years.

Christopher Martin holds a B.A. and an LL.B. and has practised family law throughout Ontario for over 30 years, appearing at the Ontario Court of Justice, the Superior Court of Justice, and the Ontario Court of Appeal. Alexandra Cohan earned an undergraduate degree from Queen's University in Kingston and a J.D. from Monash University in Melbourne, was called to the bar in 2013, and practised law in Australia before returning to Canada and working at Toronto firms. Cohan's practice covers parenting issues, child and spousal support, and property division, with a stated preference for resolving matters outside court but with trial experience at every level of Ontario's court system. Beyond Hamilton, the firm serves clients in Ancaster, Dundas, Stoney Creek, Burlington, Oakville, Milton, and Brantford.
