St. Catharines Lawyer Graham Wilson has pleaded guilty to 12 counts of breach of trust after defrauding his clients of approximately $640, 000.

The incidents happened between October 2007 and August 2011.

Wilson was licensed to practice law in 1992, but last August the Law Society of Upper Canada seized Wilson’s office records and data because of numerous complaints about misappropriation of funds,  and in September he was officially suspeneded from practising law.
