I was facing a daunting appeal of a municipal licensing decision that threatened my small business. I needed an attorney who understood the intricate workings of administrative tribunals and could navigate the specific procedural nuances. Ben Kates at WeirFoulds was recommended, and his focused expertise was immediately apparent. Despite his relatively short time in practice, his background from the University of Toronto and his recognized work in Administrative and Public Law translated into a profound, practical understanding of the regulatory landscape. Ben meticulously deconstructed the agency's rationale, identified procedural missteps, and crafted a compelling written submission that was both legally rigorous and strategically sound. He managed the entire process with a calm, professional demeanor that instilled confidence. The outcome was a complete reversal of the initial denial, allowing my business to proceed without costly delays. Ben’s ability to deliver such a positive result, grounded in deep subject-matter knowledge, demonstrates why he is already gaining recognition in his field. I would not hesitate to engage his services again for any regulatory or public law matter.
