About Justin W Yuen Barrister & Solicitor

Justin W Yuen Barrister & Solicitor was a solo criminal defence practice in downtown Toronto. Justin W Yuen opened the practice in March 2018 after working at another Toronto criminal defence firm, and built it around the full arc of a criminal case, from bail hearings and Crown negotiations through preliminary inquiries, trial, and sentencing. The practice represented clients facing charges across the spectrum of criminal law, from drug and firearms offences to murder, before the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice. Justin W Yuen holds an LL.B (Hons.) from the University of Kent in England and an LL.M from Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, and the practice offered services in English and Cantonese.

Outside the caseload, Justin W Yuen has sat on the Criminal Lawyers' Association's Recent Call Committee and the Federation of Asian Canadian Lawyers' Advocacy and Policy Committee, and testified before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights on Bill C-5, legislation to remove mandatory minimum sentences from the Criminal Code and the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Justin W Yuen is now a partner at Yuen Dimitrijevic LLP in Toronto.
