About Francesca Yaskiel

Francesca Yaskiel Barrister & Solicitor is a solo criminal defence practice based in Toronto, run out of an office at 15 Bedford Road. Yaskiel has practiced criminal law for more than 30 years, with particular experience defending sexual assault, domestic assault, drug offences, white collar crime, professional regulatory matters, and cases involving mental health issues, according to the firm's own site.

Before entering private practice, Yaskiel worked as an Assistant Crown Attorney, a background that brings prosecutorial experience to the defence of criminal files. From 1996 to 2005, Yaskiel was the assistant head of criminal procedure for the Bar Admission Course at the Law Society of Upper Canada, the licensing body that preceded today's Law Society of Ontario. From 2006 to 2016, Yaskiel served on the Ontario Review Board, the tribunal that reviews the status of people found not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder or unfit to stand trial, a role that connects directly to the firm's practice in mental health related criminal matters.
