About Anthony Marchetti, Barrister & Solicitor

Anthony Marchetti is a sole practitioner in Toronto who has practiced criminal defence exclusively since being called to the Ontario bar in June 2010. Marchetti grew up in Toronto's Downsview neighbourhood and still lives in the city, studied history, philosophy, and classics at York University, and went to law school at Queen's University in Kingston. The office is on St. Clair Avenue West, in the city's Corso Italia area.

The practice covers the full range of criminal and provincial offence work, from traffic tickets and Highway Traffic Act matters up to first degree murder, taking in assault, drug, driving, domestic, weapons, robbery, fraud, and internet sex offence cases, along with bail hearings, extraditions, and Charter challenges. Marchetti has represented hundreds of clients at all three levels of court in Ontario, the Ontario Court of Justice, the Superior Court of Justice, and the Court of Appeal for Ontario, and takes cases from across the province rather than Toronto alone. Marchetti has been a member of the Criminal Lawyers' Association since 2009 and served on its board as Recent Call Director for Toronto from 2015 to 2017.

The neighbourhood

The office sits on St. Clair Avenue West between Dufferin Street and Lansdowne Avenue, the stretch of the street known as Corso Italia, a small commercial district that grew out of the Italian immigration to that part of Toronto and still keeps much of that character in its cafes, bakeries, and family run shops. The 512 St. Clair streetcar runs along St. Clair Avenue and stops nearby, connecting the office to the St. Clair subway station to the east.

It's a residential, low rise part of the city rather than a courthouse district, which fits a criminal defence practice that is not really tied to one courtroom. The firm's own site lists clients taken on across Ontario, including Brampton, Newmarket, Oshawa, Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo, Barrie, and London, so the St. Clair West office works more as a home base for a province wide practice than a storefront built around foot traffic.
