He practices estate litigation (including probating wills, guardianship, and Powers of Attorney), civil litigation (including employment law), corporate and commercial litigation (partnership and shareholder disputes) and mortgage remedies (collections and enforcement).

In October 2009 Mr. Goldstein was appointed a Deputy Judge of the Ontario Small Claims Court and he presides, part-time, in the Central East Region of Ontario which includes Richmond Hill, Newmarket, Barrie, and Oshawa Small Claims Courts. This experience has helped made Elliott a better lawyer.
