Accepts Legal AidFree consultationAbout Sanja Mavrak, Barrister & Solicitor
Sanja Mavrak, Barrister & Solicitor, is a sole criminal and civil litigation practice based in downtown Toronto, at 43 Front Street East. Mavrak was called to the Ontario bar in June 2014 after articling at a firm that handled civil litigation and criminal law, and now practices in both areas: criminal defence on one side, and civil litigation and contract law on the other.
On the criminal side, the practice covers a wide range of charges, from assault and domestic assault to drug offences, fraud, theft, impaired driving, and bail hearings, along with youth and provincial offences matters. The civil practice focuses on breach of contract disputes, commercial leasing, and Small Claims and Superior Court matters, with negotiation, mediation, and arbitration offered alongside litigation. Mavrak completed an undergraduate degree at the University of Western Ontario before earning a Juris Doctor in Australia and returning to Canada to practice, and is fluent in English, Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian.
