About Robert Coates LLP

Robert Coates LLP is a small law firm based in downtown Toronto, with an office at Carlton and Jarvis Streets. The firm has been practising in the city for more than 20 years. Robert G. Coates, one of the firm's Principal Partners, was called to the Bar of Ontario in 1981 and is certified by the Law Society of Ontario as a specialist in Estates and Trusts Law. Its work covers four main areas, family law, wills and estate planning, real estate law, and corporate and business law, and it serves clients across the Greater Toronto Area, including Scarborough, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Aurora and Newmarket.

The firm's family law practice is built around mediation, collaborative law and negotiation rather than litigation, and it turns to court only when no other option remains. Robert G. Coates has experience representing parents in child welfare matters, including cases involving the Children's Aid Society, and is a member of the Ontario Review Board and the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP). The firm's staff can assist clients in English, Hebrew and Portuguese.
