About Black Criminal Law
Black Criminal Law is a Kingston, Ontario firm that practices exclusively in criminal defence. Founder Sarah Black was called to the Ontario Bar in 2018 and opened the practice less than a week later. Sarah Black holds a law degree from Queen's University in Kingston and a Bachelor of Arts in History with Honours from Dalhousie University and the University of Glasgow in Scotland. The firm defends charges under the Criminal Code of Canada and the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, from first-time allegations to complex prosecutions, without spreading its resources across other areas of law.
The firm describes itself as a small, all-female team. Associate lawyer Georgina Pollard, originally from Leeds, England, was called to the Ontario Bar in 2024 after completing a law degree at Queen's University Belfast in Northern Ireland and articling with the firm. Black Criminal Law's practice includes Gladue-informed representation for clients who identify as Indigenous and cases involving mental health issues, including Not Criminally Responsible defences. Operating from an office on Ontario Street, the firm serves clients in Kingston, Napanee, Brockville, and Belleville, and has been honoured as Kingston's Best Criminal Defence Firm for three consecutive years.
