A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Ben Fulton, a private solo practitioner in the GTA and Hamilton area, talks with Naomi about the human rights case he has been working on since law school based on his own personal experience; his interest in restorative justice, the value of mentorship, and his advice to other blind people who would like to become lawyers.

His practice focuses primarily on human rights and minor criminal matters, where diversion is a practical solution. Ben Fulton employs a wholistic approach to the legal challenges faced by his clients. This approach goes beyond the singular legal issue that brought that person into contact with the legal system, and addresses the systemic issues at play in any given circumstance. He belongs to the Canadian Federation of The Blind (CFB) and focuses on advocacy for the most challenged members of society.

His award winning report on David Lepofsky was published by the Parliamentary committee on Human Resources, Skills, Social Development, and the Status of Persons with a Disability.
