Helping Youth Facing Serious Charges in Toronto.
Youth charges under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA) require a careful and experienced approach. While the youth justice system focuses more on rehabilitation than punishment, a conviction can still result in custody, probation, strict conditions, and a youth record that may impact education, employment, and future opportunities. Allegations involving assault, weapons, theft, drug offences, or other Criminal Code matters are taken seriously by the courts, and early legal guidance is critical to protecting a young person’s rights and long-term future.
At Dalraj Bains Criminal Lawyers, we provide strategic, compassionate, and effective representation for young persons facing criminal charges in Toronto. Our firm works closely with youth and their families to explain the process clearly, assess diversion opportunities, and build strong defences where needed. We carefully examine police conduct, statements, and disclosure to ensure the young person’s rights were respected at every stage. When your child’s future is on the line, you need experienced legal representation focused on achieving the best possible outcome under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

We Defend Youth Charged with Serious Offences
- Proportionality: Consequences must reflect the seriousness of the offence and the youth’s degree of responsibility.
- Rehabilitation and Reintegration: The system prioritizes helping youth reintegrate into society through support and interventions.
- Reduced Culpability: Youths have diminished maturity and moral judgment, requiring a different approach than adults.
- Timely Intervention: Proceedings should be immediate to maximize impact on youth behaviour.
- Fairness and Rights: Youths have the same Charter rights as adults with additional protections due to their vulnerability.
- Alternatives to Custody: Extrajudicial measures are available for minor offences to avoid formal prosecution. In certain cases, the youth may need to admit guilt to participate in extrajudicial measures.
- Public Protection: Serious offences may require custodial sentences to ensure community safety.
