I dealt with Justin on a matter that had criminal charges pending. i was facing heavy fines, possible jail time, and a criminal record. Justin was very professional in the handling of my case, and kept me informed every step of the way. He laid out the possbile outcomes so there would be no... surprises. Justin was able to get all these charges down to the equivalent of a traffic ticket. I have no criminal record, no jail time and the fine was quite reasonable. I am very thankful to this firm for getting me out of this mess. I also have been laid off due to covid so this firm has been very understanding and we have made a payment arragment for my fees. I would highly reccomend this firm and Justin.read more

I would strongly recommend to anyone If they are going through the same issues.read more
'Review for Jami S.' - It had been 4 years that I was struggling to get a medical suspension lifted in order to reinstate my driver's license despite having an impeccable record prior to the suspension. It started as a simple dilemma I thought I could solve myself however it turned into a... never-ending process of trying to get doctors to help me most not willing to get involved. Finally I got in touch with Jami from the Aitken Robertson firm. Right from the get-go, Jami was confident in my case and that he could help me go through an appeal process with the Ministry of Transportation and LAT. Even during a tough Covid-19 restriction period where the process was mostly done remotely, he managed to help me get the job done. I finally have my driver's license back! I already started driving again and it feels as though it never left me. Driving may not be a right in this country but it sure can open the door to endless possibilities and make life a whole lot easier. I am so grateful that Jami represented me as he always followed up with me and lived up to his word. From my experience, there is no one better! Definitely would recommend Jami!read more

I hired Aitken Robertson for a DUI charge. I started dealing with Justin Marchand about a year ago. He listened to my queries. He was super calm and able to answer all my questions. My trial was in early January. We met few times around holiday rush. We sat down in details about my trail as i have... never gone to court prior to this. He was super confident that we are gonna win. He was able to drop all my charges including criminal charge. I am a free man now. Justin is super organized and knows what he is doing and very easy to deal with. I am super glad he represented and over the moon that all my charges are dropped. Thanks Justin Marchand. You did well.read more
At the beginning of 2019, I found myself facing accusations of an assault charge involving alcohol. Things had been going better in my life for quite some time but with a prior record, the outcome was not looking bright for me.From my first phone consultation with Richard Robertson, to my on... going dealings with Virginia Dolinska, Mark Cardy, Lavinia Inbar and Susan Cornett ... everything was okay.They were professional beyond belief, as well as sympathetic, reassuring, detailed and prompt. Even taking and returning calls on their commute to and from the office.Money is a bit of an issue for me at this time and they were willing to work with me and were very flexible in regards to a payment plan.I attended court twice. Once for a bail alteration and once for resolution resulting in charge withdrawn and no additions to my existing record.If Google would let me give these guys 6 put of 5 stars I would. So, if you have a pressing legal issue ... better call Aitken Robertson, they can and will take care of you.read more
Justin Marchand I cannot thank you enough for completely dismissing my case. I can tell you worked hard for our win. I trust your firm knows you are incredible, I hope they continue to value your expertise! I was charged with a refusal to blow and after interviewing many lawyers my odds were... looking like a loss and that if I'm extremely lucky I may get away with a careless. Mr. Marchand saw all sorts of angles on the case. I had hope but still thought it was a difficult task. A difficult task indeed during the trial process, with the judge and police officers on as witnesses making it that much more difficult. I also heard Oshawa was the most difficult place to win a trial, so I came prepared thinking I would be losing my license for the next few months. I was extremely surprised and thrilled the judge ultimately said "not guilty". Not even a reduction to careless it was a complete dismissal to my surprise! It was a lengthy two day trial process and Mr. Marchand fought to create multiple opportunities for a win. Mr. Marchand's hardwork on finding case laws that were similar to my case helped extremely well to win. I can also tell he was very knowledgeable and confident with the trial process when he was preparing me. The approaches he provided, in my opinion, were genius. I rarely ever write reviews but on this occasion I owe it to Justin Marchand. I highly recommend him to fight your DUI charges!read more
Aitken Robertson are a very competent group.

Recently my son needed legal support in Peterborough in defense of a criminal matter. We had the good fortune to randomly choose the law firm of Aitken Robertson and even more fortunate to be assigned Mr. Dan Lemaire as our attorney. He was friendly, sympathetic and as it turned out very... knowledgeable with criminal matters. Mr. Lemaire always made himself available to answer our questions. In regards to the legal matter at hand, some charges were dismissed and others reduced. It was a better outcome then we had hoped for. I would highly recommend this law firm and specifically Mr. Lemaire to anyone in need of legal representation.Richard H.Barrie, ON.read more
Prior to my involvment with Aitken Robertson, I had never been in handcuffs, let alone stepped foot in a courtroom. Thirty-two years of no priors. Nothing.In 2017 I was charged with blowing over 80 after being pulled over for driving a "suspicious" looking vehicle around the block. Once. I was... not pulled over for impaired driving. It was in part my own honesty and perhaps naevity that resulted in my arrest.Admittedly, given my opening statement, I was terrified and at a loss for what to do; Who to talk to, what my options were, but most of all what it could mean for my future.After much back and forth with a very to-the-point, albeit very reassuring and informative paralegal (Mr. Brad Dinning), he advised me to contact A.R. because they "dealt specifically (mostly) and fiercely with DUI charges."That led me (via their fantastic staff) to being set up with a lawyer for the first time in my life: Mr. Justin Marchand.Not only was Mr. Marchand exceptionally informative, he seemed very passionate about my case and especially his job; A man that takes pride in his work--absolutely--and one that managed to build a very humble balance between "I'm not your friend, I'm your lawyer," but also "I've got your back if you choose to stick with this."I say this because going into the experience, all I wanted was constant reassurance and to be told that everything would be okay.That was, in fact, not what I got, nor--as I realized by the end--what I needed.Mr. Marchand understood my situation on a personal level but was able to effectively leave it on the backburner during our conversations while still maintaining a level of reassurance and blunt, professional, informationalism that I would have never expected prior to any of this happening.I was told "not to be confident, but to be hopeful," and at the time the statement made absolutely no sense to me (I thought the opposite). After all was said and done, however, I understand what he meant.When it came down to it, we had a 50/50 chance: Our half weighing on something I had no idea could even be presented in defense of blatant evidence (though it was blatant evidence in a case where the circumstances seemed impossibly daft).We came out on top. Charges fully dismissed.Had it not been for the thorough investigation that Mr. Marchand had done regarding my case, I probably would have opted to have just pled guilty and been dubbed a criminal for something that, in all honesty, did not--to my family or myself--seem criminal in the slightest beyond the breath test readings.This experience has left me incredibly thankful, humble and (as a pessimist and carrier of seemingly endless streaks of bad luck) slightly surprised that there are folks like Mr. Marchand and the staff I spoke with throughout, at A.R. who exist and provide such a professional level of assistance in situations like these.I would, and will, one hundred percent, advise and recommend anyone in Ontario dealing with criminal charges (especially DUI), to seek out Mr. Justin Marchand and the firm of Aitken Robertson for assistsnce.It is worth the sweat and tears, I assure you.Much love, and thank you to everyone that assisted me at A.R.Thank you, Justin.My apologies for the novel-length review.read more

After malicious accusations lead to charges being filed against my father, Justin was hired to represent him. From the beginning, Justin was calm and collected and walked us through a process that we had never been through before. During the trial, he kept our spirits up, and then assured us that... everything would be fine.Justin made sure those of us who testified were well prepared. He analyzed the situation, and was extremely accurate in his description of the final outcome. Justin seemed to know exactly what the judge was thinking, even though she was sequestered in her chambers preparing her decision. I will never forget that everything he said the judge would address she did. It was uncanny how Justin knew what the outcome would be.My parents and I will never forget what Justin did for us. Thank you ever so much, Justin, for making an awful experience one that we were able to overcome.read more
Having been charged with Driving impaired and various drug charges in relation to the impaired charge, in September 2017. my whole life had been turned upside down. having lived in a rural area and working approximately an hour away. the results of the charges where deter-mental to my employment.... having had a brother-in law go through the same thing I had contacted him to discuss how his charges where dropped. he had informed me of the Aitken Robinson firm was the choice he had made! knowing he had all his charges dropped(DUI / Assault) and reading many other reviews I felt confidence in my decision to retain Aitken Robinson firm.Justin Marchand was assigned to my case and over the 18 months to proceed where very stressful to say the least. Justin was able to unhinge various charter rights in my file that would eventually lead to having My DUI and drug charges brought down to a Careless driving charge and mischief.My father had told me to plead guilty as the facts against myself where hard to dispute. but I can say I am whole heatedly happy I went through with my decision to 'fight the charges', it was similar to winning the lottery in retrospect I kept my ability to traverse the Canadian/US border which if convicted of my original charges I would have never of been able to cross that border again effectively ruining my careerI would like to thank Justin Marchand his secretary Brenda and everyone else at Aitken Robinson for there professionalism through these 18 months and the stellar outcome that ensued.I hope anyone facing similar issues finds this review helpful as i would recommend there services in a heartbeat!read more

Our son found himself in a difficult situation while trying to find work. He fell in with bad companions who refused to pay him which drew him in deeper as he was lured with future payment. Finding his companions snorting coke after he had had half a bottle of beer forced him to take the wheel of... his own car in order to drop them off and return home. He was stopped tested and blew over. Dan Lemaire was instrumental in having the DUI charge dropped. We were on tender hooks but Dan reassured us in honest term. Dan was able to convince the prosecutor, saving the reputation of a young man. His help put the final exclamation point on a redefining moment of our son's life. Thank you!read more

Since day one of my case, Justin Marchand and his assistant Lisa Thomson have been very accommodating to review and address all my questions and concerns. I have had several phone discussions with Justin where he has always been thorough and has made his time available without rushing me. And when... I walked in for my pre-trial meeting with Justin in person, I was very anxious about the upcoming trial. But right from the beginning, he was easy to talk to, to understand, and extremely detailed which helped me relax and get a much clearer picture of the process, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of my case. I felt much more comfortable and at ease after our meeting. I left his office feeling confident knowing that my trial is in very capable hands.read more

After... speaking one of their lawyers for only about 10 minutes (free consultation) I knew I wanted them to represent me - and I'm very glad I made that decision.

Mr. Richard Aitken is a criminal lawyer who I have known for over 10 years. He always offer good advice and works very hard. Most of his practice seems to be impaired driving including in Toronto Courts.
I'm a NY driver who was caught for speeding in Ontario as i was unaware of the difference in metric units. I was represented by Mark Cardy and i really want to commend him for his professionalism and approachability when rendering legal assistance to me.Thanks to him, i managed to have a speeding... at over 49km/h of the speed limit traffic offense pleaded down to a "disobey sign" offense. I am more than pleased with the outcome and i would highly recommend their services to any one with a similar predicament as me.read more
Very friendly and professional service. I was able to have my charges dismissed within a year. As a student, I would not have been able to afford their fees if they didn't provide such reasonable payment plans. I'm extremely happy with the outcome!
I was arrested at 6:30 PM on Sunday night (Mischief CCC430) and I was in Richards office at 2:00 PM the next day. Less than 24 hrs. I was a mess, absolutely petrified and had a very hard time trying to stay focused. Richard told me to go home and not to worry, "you aren't a criminal and we'll get... the charges dropped." He made me feel safe and secure. I had the costs and all the information I needed. They work in teams so you can always call and get information. Result was exactly what Richard said but LESS than the quoted price.When does that ever happen!Special thanks to Jay for all her patience and help. She is a great asset to the firm.read more

I was charged with over 80 in south-western Ontario.Initially, of course, I was scared and unsure where to turn. I researchedlawyers on the web extensively. I called several and went through an initial 20minute or so conversation with each on the phone. When I talked to the AitkenRobertson... firm, I learned that they had a written a book on DUIs. I read itseveral times. In retrospect, now that everything is over, that book is the bestthing I could have read. It describes the process exactly as I experienced itand answered many questions I had.I was living outside of Ontario so all of my communication with Aitken Robertsonwas via phone and email. This was handled very well. They called when they saidthey would and worked around my schedule with ease.My case went to trial and I pled not guilty. It felt rather strange pleadingnot guilty to blowing over 80 when I indeed had done that. One must rememberthis is the legal system. There are many subtle nuances in the legal world thatonly well trained and experienced lawyers can understand and use in your favour.I cannot fully express how impressed I was with their preparation on the day ofthe trial. They left no stone unturned. The presentations that Mr.Aitken made during the trial were brilliant. The over 80 charge was dropped and replaced with a charge of careless driving of which I was convicted with the minimal fine.I found the fees charged by Aitken Robertson very reasonable.If you find yourself in the unsettling situation of facing charges, I highlyrecommend the Aitken Roberston group of lawyers.read more
I was charged back in the summer of 2014 with a DUI and Over 80mg. My laywer Jay Nadarajah was very informative and knowledgeable. Though it seemed as if all hope was lost Jay asked all the right questions and the end result was an "Acquittal". I am very thankful for Jay Nadarajah's attention to... detail, and for the Aitken Robertson Law Firm. Without the persistence and perseverance this could have ended rather differently, and the end result could have been a much different outcome.Thank you for all the hard work!read more

I came across Aitken Robertson as a law student looking into Criminal Law practices in the Greater Toronto Area. This is a Criminal Law firm based out of Downtown Toronto and Oshawa but operates throughout the Greater Toronto Area. During my visit, their staff were very friendly and I was given a... copy of one of their books, ’17 Secrets to Helping you survive (and win) your DUI charge’, now on its second edition, available on amazon. Clients and the public at large can have access to it for free of charge at their office.I found the ’17 Secrets…’ highly insightful. As a law student it is one thing to be immersed in the legislations and case laws, but to actually see their practical application in the day to day practice was eye-opening. One could only wish that law school curriculum had materials that were similarly easy to follow while retaining the useful practical value.The book compiles actual case studies from past successful clients highlighting some common alcohol related charges and some that were not so common. It gives practical advice to the public at large and contains advice and tips that students and even beginning practitioners may find helpful, while remaining very easy to follow. Anyone charged with an offence of driving under the influence would find 17 Secrets and their authors at Aitken Robertson very helpful.read more
I was charged with shop lifting (theft under $5000) in Peterborough. My lawyers Richard and Nathan from Aitken Robertson helped me deal with my matter and the charge was completely dropped!

And I would also like to mention their professionalism and their friendly staffs!! I also find the bill very fair and I am also very happy and thankful for that.

I was very fortunate to have chosen Aitken Robertson for my case. I was facing an impaired driving conviction and he negotiated a plea which got me careless and a 6 month license suspension.

Richard Aitken and all his staff were friendly and nice to deal with.read more
My experience with Aitken Robertson was as pleasurable as it could be, considering the circumstances that brought me there. I was charged with impaired driving, driving with blood/alcohol over 80mg, and possession of a controlled substance. I plead guilty to the impaired charge, and Richard was... able to get the over 80mg AND, the possession charged dropped. My fine was minimal, compared to what the Crown was asking for. Without Richard in my corner, it would have been much, much higher, because of my priors. I found his staff friendly, accommodating, and extremely competent. The bill was a lot lower than I expected, and was far more than fair. 5 stars to Aitken Robertson. Thank you very much. I highly recommend these folks for any of your legal needs. Thanks again to all the nice people, I met at your office.read more
I received an interesting book from Mr. Richard Aitken of Aitken Robertson, as per my dealing with the his office. I found Mr. Aitken and his people in the offices across Ontario to be very nice and pleasant to deal with, real straight shooters – something that is very, very rare to see in the... legal field in Canada. I do highly recommend Mr. Aitken and his legal team for anyone with legal needs - big or small...here is my short review of the Aitken Robertson Criminal Lawyers “A Guide to Common Criminal Charges” Book:We are living in UN-official war times against our Christian-Canadian way of life... Public servants treating us not as taxpayers-citizens but as numbers in order to meet they daily quote game. After reading “A Guide to Common Criminal Charges” book by Aitken Robertson Criminal Lawyers, I came to simple but a bit of a scary conclusion: even as law-abiding witness better to ask good-smart lawyer first before saying anything, as these days you could end up getting free upgrade from witness to suspect because whatever you say could be used against you. I'm not taking about Paranoia of 1984...just the reality of present times...this Book brought me to my senses - even as law-abiding taxpayer- Canadian citizen with nothing to hide, it is better to talk to the lawyer first before talking to police... just as better safe now, than sorry later...This book should be consider a Bible of choosing right lawyer with deep understanding what are you paying for (comprehension of billable hours). For me this book was a bit like eye opener... help me to realize how much I do not know, and what I do not know could hurt me - now or in the future affecting rest of my life...as facts same as coin could be presented in different lights/sides...“The Evil is in the details…” but to get the right details/facts in your favor - you must have right lawyer and, in my humble opinion, the book “A Guide to Common Criminal Charges” by Aitken Robertson Criminal Lawyers as it gives you right tools/ideas to resolve the problems right way and to understand what you are paying your lawyer for.
