About Domenic Basile, Criminal Lawyer
Domenic Basile, Criminal Lawyer is a solo criminal defence practice now based in Vaughan, Ontario, in the city's Woodbridge community. The practice has served clients in Toronto and the surrounding area since at least 2011, when its earliest recorded office was on Bloor Street West in downtown Toronto. The office later moved to Lesmill Road in Toronto, then to two different addresses in Concord, and now sits on Chrislea Road in Vaughan. The firm's website describes over 20 years of experience as a criminal lawyer and lists assault, domestic assault, fraud, and theft among the matters it handles, along with consultations, trials, preliminary inquiries, bail hearings, and plea hearings.
Basile has also represented clients in high profile matters, including Toronto Blue Jays reliever Roberto Osuna's 2018 assault case. Basile appeared in Toronto courts on Osuna's behalf through a series of hearings that summer, and the case concluded that September when Osuna agreed to a peace bond and the Crown withdrew the charge.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
The firm's Chrislea Road office sits in a small multi tenant commercial building in Vaughan, sharing the address with Welend Capital Ink., a credit intermediation business, in another unit. The building is in Woodbridge, a large suburban community that makes up Vaughan's southwest quadrant. Woodbridge was known as the village of Burwick before being renamed, and was incorporated as a village in 1882; it became part of Vaughan when the town amalgamated in 1971. It has long had one of the highest concentrations of Italian Canadian residents of any community in Canada, second only to nearby Nobleton as of the most recent census.
