Being charged with a criminal offence can be a frightening and overwhelming experience. My goal is to assist you and ensure that you understand the legal process and all available defences. I am committed to obtaining the best possible results for all of my clients. I will provide you with a full and complete defence and do so with vigour, professionalism and integrity.
I regularly appear in all levels of court in British Columbia including Provincial Court, Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal. I can provide you with assistance at any stage including the investigative stage, the trial stage and even post conviction when seeking to appeal a guilty verdict or an unfit sentence. I can provide you with a defence to complex cases involving search warrants and Constitutional litigation. Drug or firearms cases often involve nuanced challenges to the “Charter of Rights and Freedoms” and it is important to have a lawyer that is experienced in this area. I assist individuals who are charged with domestic assault, assault causing bodily harm, murder or manslaughter, and sexual assault. When facing a criminal charge it is important to obtain a lawyer at the earliest possible opportunity so that strategic decisions can be made for your defence. I can assist in obtaining bail if incarcerated, as well as dealing with the authorities at the pre charge level.
