His cases have been featured in all of the major Toronto newspapers, including The Globe & Mail, The Toronto Star^[2]^[3] and The Toronto Sun^[4].

Virk attended law schools in both Canada and the United States. He interned with the State Appellate Defender's Office in Michigan, representing indigent clients and drafted criminal appeals for the Michigan Supreme Court. He also interned at the Michigan District Court where he assisted the Chief Judge, prior to attending the University of Windsor Law School, as part of his accreditation.

Ultimately, he articled for the most famous defence lawyer in Canada, Edward L. Greenspan^[5], prior to obtaining his call to the Bar. While working with Greenspan, he became committed to aggressively representing and protecting the rights of those charged with criminal offences.
