About Smith Litkowski
Smith Litkowski is a criminal trial and appeal firm with six lawyers, based in midtown Toronto at Yonge and Lawrence. Tyler Smith and Holly Smith co-founded the firm; Tyler Smith leads trial work after being called to the Ontario bar in 2001, and Holly Smith directs business operations. The practice runs from bail hearings and criminal trials through to appeals and prison law, covering matters across the Greater Toronto Area.
Senior appeal lawyer Richard Litkowski, for whom the firm is partly named, was called to the bar in 1991 after a year clerking for Chief Justice Antonio Lamer at the Supreme Court of Canada. Litkowski has since argued more than 200 reported appellate decisions before the Court of Appeal for Ontario and the Supreme Court of Canada, taught Evidence at Osgoode Hall Law School, and lectured in the Bar Admission Course's criminal procedure and advocacy module. The firm also runs a dedicated prison law practice, handling parole hearings and applications to reduce parole ineligibility for people serving life sentences.
