“I am aware that this decision was only made possible by the diligent, professional, and hard work by everyone involved, and I am confident that the remainder of the process will be handled equally.”
DLS represents people charged with criminal offences at the 10 Armoury Street courthouse in Toronto. Our services are limited to people charged with summary conviction offences (e.g. assault, theft, fraud, threatening, failure to comply) who have been denied a Legal Aid Certificate because the Crown is not seeking jail. We will attend all court appearances for our clients, from initial appearances in set date court to the resolution of the charge(s), including guilty pleas and trials.
In partnerships with volunteer lawyers in the community, we also assist people who are appealing their summary conviction and/or sentence to the Superior Court of Justice at 361 University Avenue.
