About Davoudi Criminal Law

Davoudi Criminal Law is a solo criminal defence practice run by Fariborz Davoudi, with offices in Richmond Hill and Pickering, Ontario. The practice is limited to criminal law, covering matters from assault and drug offences to impaired driving, fraud, and criminal appeals, and it serves clients across the Greater Toronto Area. Davoudi studied political philosophy at the University of Western Ontario, then earned a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1997 and was called to the Ontario bar in 1999. Davoudi later returned to Osgoode for a Master of Laws in 2005 and a PhD awarded in 2015.

The PhD research, titled Rethinking the Law of Interrogations and Confessions in Canada, examined how Canadian courts define an involuntary confession, and the finished thesis is publicly available through Osgoode's digital repository. Davoudi immigrated to Canada during high school and has represented clients in cases that drew coverage from outlets including CBC, CTV, the Toronto Star, the Globe and Mail, and Global News. Davoudi has also appeared in Persian-language interviews on ITC TV, walking Farsi-speaking viewers through Canadian criminal law.
