Criminal Law

Being charged with a criminal offence is a jarring and stressful experience that can have serious impacts on your life. We have the experience and knowledge to advise you and guide you through the uncertainty and frustration of a criminal prosecution. We address your concerns, explain the process step-by-step, and provide you with high-quality legal representation. With your input, we build a strong legal defence, negotiate with the prosecution, and when necessary, advocate for you at trial.

We handle a variety of offences, including assault, sexual assault, drug possession, trafficking, theft and property crimes, threats, criminal harassment, criminal negligence and motor vehicle offences. We handle both summary conviction (misdemeanor) and indictable (felony) offences.

Our job is to defend your innocence and protect your rights to full extent of the law. If the Crown has a strong case against you, and you plead guilty or are found guilty of the offence, we work to obtain the lightest sentence possible. In all circumstances, we aim to achieve the best possible outcome for you given the facts of the case.
