DEVORAH KATZ

Criminal defence lawyer

 

My clients are my top priority.

From the moment you are charged, you need good, effective representation – someone to protect your rights and fight for you. I represent clients at all stages of the criminal process, from bail hearings to trials and plea negotiations.

el<h3 id="about" align="LEFT">I have a proven track record.</h3>
<p>I practice exclusively in criminal law. I represent clients on a wide range of criminal matters, with a niche in domestic assaults and sexual assaults and impaired driving charges. Prior to starting my own practice, I was a duty counsel lawyer in downtown Toronto and still continue to work as a per diem duty counsel to this day. I know the system very well and know how to get the best results. I remain dedicated to advocating for those in need by providing high quality representation to my clients. I serve on numerous Legal Aid panels, providing expertise in Aboriginal and Mental Health law.</p>

<p>I earned a joint Honours Bachelor of Arts degree from McGill University in Political Science and Sociology. I graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto in 2009. I taught law in New York City for several years before returning home to Toronto to grow my practice. I apply the same academic rigor to my pract</p>

<p>I place a high value on building strong relationships with my clients,  taking the time to understand and listen to their particular needs. I firmly believe that the best legal defence requires a client who is well-informed of their options and a skilled advisor who is able to execute their goals. </p>

I am here to help.
