Toronto West Court Office

Fast service. Government place. Why no free parking?

Be prepared to pay for parking and to be accosted by numerous ambulance chasing legal consultants and lawyers circling the parking lot like sharks. Once you get into the building, God forbid you should have to ask the information counter people for assistance. These individuals are behind bullet proof glass, in their rental cop uniforms and instead of helping, they provide you with a healthy dose of unnecessary attitude and bad advise. You'd think they were RCMP or CSIS the way the carry on. The chip on their shoulders and grotesque attitude is truly unwarranted. It's Pathetic! If I could give it 0 stars I would

Had to go traffic court today. Obtain a parking ticket using coins. I paid $5 for 8:50am to 10:05. Started a couple months ago. Enter the building and get a queue ticket number from the information desk. Pens are available in the adjacent room. Fill out an intent to appear form with ticket number. All they did was rubber stamp the ticket. Told me I will receive a notice in 5 months for trial in the mail. Washrooms are open to public so good stop for your walking adventures! Can fax a form requesting disclosure (police notes and radar ). Go on court date today (almost 9 months after in my case). I arrived at 8:55 because traffic was heavy due to eglinton lrt. Court w5 was second floor. Put all metal objects in tray, walk thru metal detector. Collect back stuff. Open doors with w5 on top. check in with PROSECUTOR in front before judge arrives. Tell him|her your pleading not guilty. Might try to convince you to adjourn the case and seek legal advice...don't. The judge comes in so stand up. The court calls the officer number and he|she comes in or not. Your name is called and go up to desk opposite prosecutor. Repeat your name to the clerk. Charges are dropped if the officer is not there. Left around 9:35 am. Coffee upstairs. Wedding room available. Halal food at Euro shawarma nearby

I attended this court house because I was charged with robbery. When I asked the court officers near the front doors where my court room was they were very helpful. They were also gentle and respectful when searching me as I entered. I ended up getting convicted however, the Judge was very professional when sentencing me to 6 months in jail. We actually joked about it and plan on meeting up for beers once I'm out. All in all, a decent experience and would recommend attending this court house for any criminal matters. CONS: No free parking. But then again, I don't own a car and there is no free parking anywhere in this city anyway.

A court that doesn't have free parking. Was offered no assistance, person in front was too busy talking to a friend, wasn't told a prosecution date, called in a couple months later for it, was hung up on 4 times until they told me there still wasn't a date. 8 months pass and I find out my date was 4 months ago, no notice whatsoever. Sent trial date, no number to call back # for information. When they're closed and have you waiting on a customer service number that can't help you. It's the 311#
