Criminal Law services
Bail, Breach & Failure to Comply
If you or someone you know has been arrested, immediate legal help is crucial. We represent clients in bail hearings, breach of probation, fail-to-comply, and obstruct-police charges. We work to secure reasonable release conditions and to prevent technical breaches from turning into new criminal records.
Fraud & Financial Crimes
Fraud investigations often begin as business or personal disputes. We defend charges of fraud, false pretences, and breach of trust. With our background in business and commercial law, we understand financial documentation and can separate civil misunderstandings from criminal intent.
Theft & Shoplifting
Even minor theft allegations can create a permanent criminal record. We handle Theft, Shoplifting, and Possession of Stolen Property cases, including workplace and retail incidents. Many first-time offenders qualify for diversion programs or absolute discharges — our goal is to protect your future opportunities.
Impaired Driving (DUI / Over 80 / Refusal)
Ontario police now lay thousands of DUI charges every year. We defend impaired driving, over 80 mg, and refusal to provide a breath sample charges. Our focus is on identifying Charter breaches, procedural errors, and testing irregularities that can lead to withdrawal or acquittal.
Uttering Threats & Harassment
Words said in anger, texts, or social-media messages can lead to criminal charges under section 264.1 of the Criminal Code. We defend allegations of threats, intimidation, and harassment, emphasizing context, intent, and credibility. These cases often involve misunderstandings that can be clarified through negotiation or early resolution.
Assault & Domestic Violence
Assault allegations can arise in almost any situation, from heated arguments to misunderstandings or self-defence scenarios. We defend clients facing charges of simple assault, assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, and domestic assault. Many cases can be resolved through withdrawals, peace bonds, or conditional discharges. Our goal is to protect your record, your rights, and your reputation.
