ABOUT OUR TEAM

BEN FULTON

Barrister & Solicitor

Founder

BIO
A blind crime-fighting advocate promoting justice, fairness, and equality. His approach to ending crime is centered around human rights. He feels crime is prevented by eliminating destructive behaviour and empowering people faced with criminal charges to establish healthy community relationships. This approach to conflict resolution focuses on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) techniques, involving mediation, arbitration, negotiated settlement, and non-violent communication.

Called to the bar in 2019, he brings a human-rights-focused approach to criminal and administrative law, with particular strength in working with youth and individuals involved in minor criminal matters. His practice emphasizes prevention, rehabilitation, and restorative solutions, drawing on his background in Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), including mediation, arbitration, negotiation, and non-violent communication.

Ben is a graduate of Osgoode Hall Law School’s prestigious Litigation, Dispute Resolution, and Administration of Justice (LDA) stream, a designation recognizing advanced training in negotiation, mediation, and the full litigation process. Throughout law school, he was a strong advocate for accessibility and student rights—founding an organization to support students with disabilities and leading initiatives to improve access to legal education.

His contributions to the Osgoode community earned him numerous distinctions, including the Dean’s Gold Key Award, the Legal & Literary Society Award, the BC Millennium Scholarship, the Tamara Gordon Foundation Scholarship, and the Jennifer Laura Eve Wilson Scholarship. He also received the Centennial Flame Research Award for completing a research project for the Parliament of Canada.

Ben’s work continues to be guided by a commitment to restorative justice, community empowerment, and practical, human-centered legal advocacy.
