About Lichtman Law

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Lichtman Law is a small criminal defence firm in Toronto, with an office in First Canadian Place at 100 King Street West, at King and Bay in the city's Financial District. Founder Rachel Lichtman built the practice around criminal, quasi-criminal, and regulatory litigation, covering drug charges, assault, firearms offences, domestic assault, sexual assault, fraud, and youth crime. The firm is small by design, with two lawyers and a legal assistant, and it appears in Ontario courts across the Greater Toronto Area, including Toronto, Newmarket, Brampton, and Hamilton.

Lichtman earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Windsor after an honours degree in business at York University, and worked at Greenspan Partners LLP, a Toronto criminal law firm, before opening Lichtman Law. The firm's senior associate holds a joint Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Civil Law from McGill University and has worked on both the defence and prosecution sides of the criminal bar. Youth crime is a particular focus for the firm: it keeps a blog on the subject and represents young people charged under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, from the police station through to sentencing.
