Willschick holds a Bachelor of Arts with an honours specialization in political science and philosophy from York University, a Juris Doctor from Queen's University earned in 2008, and a Master of Laws in constitutional law from the University of Toronto earned in 2010.

The firm takes criminal cases exclusively, from bail hearings and impaired driving charges to drug offences, assault, and fraud, with clients drawn from across the Greater Toronto Area as well as Barrie, Bradford, Hamilton, and London. Willschick has been interviewed or quoted by CP24, Global News, CTV News, and CityTV on criminal law stories, and wrote an LLM thesis on terrorism policy and the protection of individual rights while at the University of Toronto. The firm also keeps a dedicated Mandarin and English phone line for Mandarin speaking clients.
