About David Lang Barrister & Solicitor

David Lang Barrister & Solicitor is a solo law practice in downtown Kitchener, Ontario. David J. Lang has run it for more than 30 years, and the work centres on criminal defence and family law. The practice also takes on child protection and mental health matters, so a single file can move between the Ontario Court of Justice, the Superior Court of Justice, and specialized tribunals. Courtroom work is a core part of the job here: the firm has conducted criminal and family trials in both of those courts, including jury trials.

Its listing with Legal Aid Ontario names a broader set of areas, among them criminal, family, child protection, Gladue matters, the Consent and Capacity Board, and the Ontario Review Board, and the firm welcomes clients who hold Legal Aid certificates. Services are offered in French and English. David J. Lang's background spans arts, business, and law, with degrees listed as B.A., M.A., M.B.A., LL.B., and LL.M. The stated aim is plain: explain the available options in language a client can follow, then act on the plan they choose.

The neighbourhood

The office sits at 101 Frederick Street, Suite 1003, in the downtown Kitchener core. For a practice built on courtroom work, that puts the firm within a short walk of where its cases are heard. The Waterloo Region Courthouse stands up the same street at 85 Frederick Street, and it hosts both the Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice. Criminal, family, and child protection matters from across the region move through that building, so the office and the courtroom share the same few blocks of Frederick Street.
