Aitken Robertson have always been very understanding and supportive during this very difficult time and I felt very comfortable speaking to all members of the team, my representing Lawyer, Rawi Asghar and Paralegal Melanie Aarde who were always available to answer my questions and address my concerns. Rawi took my case and fought for me every step of the way through skillful negotiation. He was able to get the charges withdrawn entirely. What made the biggest difference was feeling supported and believed in throughout the process. Rawi explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and gave me hope when I needed it most. Thanks to Rawi of his professionalism and dedication, my case was resolved successfully. At last, Richard who was also able to go out of his way to schedule a call with me off his business hours to help me answer few of my questions and concern. Susan Cronett who was always helpful to provide efficient service at front end questions I have no hesitation in recommending Aitken Robertson, Rawi and his team to anyone seeking for a lawyer.

My experience with Aitken Robertson and Mr Dhaliwal was exceptional. Mr Dhaliwal was able to get my criminal charge dropped by the crown. The firm kept me updated throughout the process and were available to answer any questions I had along the way. I am thankful for the work that was put into my case and am happy with the outcome I received

Well, unfortunately, I was facing charges of over 80 (alcohol) and dangerous driving which ultimately could have resulted in at least a year license suspension and at least two year’s probation. This would’ve ruined all of my current and future plans. Thankfully, Mr. Tarinpal Dhaliwal was able to prepare a case with precision to outline all the violations towards me and his dedication to my peace of mind, my freedom, and my rights most of all, it is absolutely unparallelled with anything I’ve ever experienced in my life. Mr. Tarinpal Dhaliwal made me his priority and took care of me and made sure that I wasn’t being taken advantage by the police and falling victim to just being another person who was beaten by the bad side of the law. Today, I express my upmost gratitude as Mr. Tarinpal Dhaliwal was able to have my court case completely dismissed from the Superior Court of Newmarket and he continues to offer his support should I need anything moving forward. I was very impressed with Mr. Tarinpal Dhaliwal and the firm Aitken Robertson and I would recommend them to anyone seeking justice. All you have to do is fight the charges. I cannot thank them enough. M.A.C.

I was facing multiple counts of assault with a weapon, and was in desperate need of help. However Tarinpal and the legal experts at Aitken Robertson made the entire process stress-free and easy. Tarinpal got ALL charges withdrawn due to delayed disclosure. I am extremely grateful to Tarinpal, as he saved my career and future. If ever in need of a lawyer, Tarinpal and the experts at Aitken Robertson are second to none!

I am extremely grateful to the legal experts at Aitken Robertson, as I was facing serious charges that put my future in jeopardy. However thanks to Tarinpal and his extraordinary dedication and skills, my trial was a success. Tarinpal conducted a cross examination of a key crown witness. Tarinpals amazing cross examination was key to winning the trial. I would recommend Tarinpal and Aitken Robertson to anyone in need of a dedicated lawyer who genuinely cares about getting the best results possible for you.

I am very grateful for every one that works at this office. Highly recommend. I have had them twice now. First time bought down charges to a careless. Saved my career and job. Second. On first day of court got a call at lunch time. And they had proven my innocence and all charges withdrawn. Literally thrown in the garbage. I am very appreciative of everyone at this office. And I would recommend them to everyone. Tarinpal Dhaliwal is an absolute gem in the court room! Thank you all so very much ❤️

The team at Aikten-Robertson is beyond professional and helpful. My boyfriend recently faced a DUI charge that we were scared could eventually lead to deportation since he was not a Canadian citizen. His lawyer, Edmund Chan, and Zachary, were incredibly easy to work with, very responsive, and very helpful. They took the time to chat with us on multiple occasions, connected us with the right people, gave us good advice and suggestions, and reached out to us with updates and new ideas even when it seemed they had forgotten about us. They truly helped us navigate the uncertainties of the legal system. We initially thought we would be going to trial, but the case actually ended with a settlement, with criminal charges dropped. We couldn't have asked for better. At first we were very hesitant about getting a lawyer, but in the end, realized that none of this would have been possible without Mr. Chan and his team. We will be forever grateful for the work they have done for us, and highly recommend them to anybody!

Newmarket Crime Snapshot

*Per available police information.

Although direct information about Newmarket isn’t available, we do have crime information regarding the whole of the York region (which also includes Vaughn, Richmond Hill, and Markham) which should be able to give a broad, if inexact, snapshot of things.

  • Violent, property, and weapon crimes have all taken solid dives in 2024;
  • But this has been counterbalanced by a rise in drug, federal, and administrative crimes;
  • This means that the crime rate only fell by 2.6% in the last year.
