Our Story:

For over 50 years, RDM Lawyers has been helping families, homeowners, businesses and Fraser Valley residents with all their legal needs. Located in Abbotsford and Langley, we’re a full-service law firm providing legal advice, assistance and advocacy in virtually all areas of BC law including personal injury, family law, real estate law, business law, will and estate planning, mediation services, civil litigation, employment law and estate litigation. So whether you’re starting out, starting a family, planning for the future or preparing for the unexpected in life, we’re here to help you every step of the way. 

In 1971, the firm was formed by David Robertson in the same building where we can be found today in Abbotsford, BC. Shortly thereafter, he was joined by lawyers Ron Downe and Frank Mullally who collectively named the firm using the first initial of their last names. RDM has now grown to become a firm of over 75 lawyers and staff. In 2023, we expanded to a second location in Langley to better serve you. Throughout it all, our philosophy hasn’t changed. We want to provide you with trusted, knowledgeable, and experienced–based advice – no matter where you may be in life or in business. To achieve this, our experienced team of lawyers, paralegals and assistants operate with the utmost integrity, professionalism and reliability in all their internal and external activities. Our lawyers focus on preferred areas of practice so that we can offer you the benefit of their expertise, knowledge and advice that’s unique to your individual circumstances.

We’re proud of where we live and work. We owe much of our success to the dedicated, hard-working, community-mind team of staff and lawyers who’ve helped us become trusted members of the Fraser Valley community. We return this pride and gratitude by giving back to the community through event sponsorships and other activities. A few of the community events that we support include Run For Water, Reach Gallery and the Crystal Gala.
