About Strban Law
Strban Law is a solo criminal defence practice run by Sarah Strban out of an office on Berkeley Street in downtown Toronto. The practice covers criminal law, regulatory matters, and professional discipline, and takes on cases from bail hearings through trial and appeal. Strban has appeared at every level of court, including the Ontario Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada, on matters that have ranged from sexual offences and drug prosecutions to organized crime and murder charges. Before opening the practice, Strban worked at established Toronto criminal defence firms, building a background in high profile and complex matters.
Strban is a graduate of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, where the coursework included representing low income clients and competing internationally in the Philip C. Jessup Moot Court Competition. Strban belongs to the Criminal Lawyers' Association and The Advocates' Society, and has sat on the Advocates' Society's Young Advocates' Standing Committee, publishing for both organizations along the way.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
The office sits on Berkeley Street, a street that once marked the eastern edge of the original ten block townsite of York laid out in 1793. Today that same stretch of downtown Toronto sits between the Old Town district near St. Lawrence Market and Corktown, an older residential neighbourhood whose name traces to an Irish enclave in the early 19th century and that is still lined with Victorian era buildings. It's a part of downtown where converted older buildings sit alongside small legal and professional offices, a practical base for a practice that runs on court appearances rather than walk in visitors.
