About Abbey Lawyers
Abbey Lawyers defends people facing criminal charges in the Greater Toronto Area, and it's been doing that work as GTA criminal lawyers for 15 years. The work runs from minor offences all the way to high-stakes litigation, and the charges it names are only part of the picture: it also takes on many criminal matters beyond that list.
Alonzo Abbey is the Toronto criminal lawyer at the heart of the practice. A Dean's List graduate, Abbey holds a bachelor's degree in political science and law from York University and a law degree that took in studies in both Victoria, B.C., and the United States. Abbey is also a member of the Criminal Lawyers Association.
Courtroom advocacy isn't the only tool. Abbey also negotiates and uses alternative dispute resolution to find creative answers to difficult legal problems, gets deeply involved in each case, and shapes the approach around what every individual client needs. Legal Aid Ontario has Alonzo Abbey on its list for criminal work, including extremely serious matters and Gladue matters.
Clients meet with the firm at Suite 100, 1885 Wilson Ave in Toronto.

By appointmentHow Abbey Lawyers works
Every client starts with a confidential consultation, where the firm hears the concerns and works through the details of the situation. From that assessment it builds a defence strategy fitted to the client's interests, then argues the case in court. Clients are treated as individuals who deserve understanding and respect, not as case numbers. The firm's mission also reaches past the immediate charge, using what it knows to inform and empower people as they move through the criminal justice system, and it puts weight on starting early, since an early start leaves more room to collect evidence and reach witnesses.
