German-speaking Lawyers and Staff in Toronto
Eric Polton | Lawyer
Our firm’s founder, Eric P. Polten, was born in Vienna and raised in Canada. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in philosophy from the University of Toronto and studied as a Woodrow Wilson Fellow at Stanford University. He completed his law degree at the University of Toronto and was admitted to practice in Ontario in 1974.
Referendars
We work with a Europe-based network of legal professionals. Built over a period of two decades, our network includes more than 200 notaries, lawyers and judges, who occupy a range of responsible positions throughout Germany. Further, we maintain an ongoing roster of at least two Referendars (German law students), who, having completed about five years of full time university studies in law, are engaged in the final stage of two and a half years of practical training for admission to the legal profession in Germany.
