About Coquitlam
Coquitlam's courthouse on Glen Drive serves one of BC's fastest-growing cities — a municipality that transformed from a resource-industry town (including the massive Riverview psychiatric hospital complex, once the largest institution of its kind in western Canada) into a city of over 150,000. Riverview Hospital, just kilometres from the courthouse, was historically significant in BC legal history: for decades it was the institution to which individuals found not criminally responsible were often remanded. For Supreme Court family law matters, Coquitlam residents attend the New Westminster Law Courts —
Coquitlam Provincial Court (3017 Glen Drive) handles CFCSA matters and protection order applications. New Westminster Law Courts (651 Carnarvon Street) serves as the BC Supreme Court location for Coquitlam family law matters. Our Sapperton Head Office serves clients by phone or secure video. Virtual consultations available throughout the Tri-Cities.
