Give Us a Call

We guarantee a timely response when you call us to book a consultation. Whether you call during regular business hours or in the evening, we'll take your call and get you paired with the right lawyer, right away.

Consultation

Once paired with the right lawyer, we'll sit down for a 30-60 minute consultation wherein we will discuss the allegations against you and your side of the story. We'll take the time to review possible outcomes and provide you with a detailed outline of what to expect.

Court Appearances

It may take up to 8 weeks or more to obtain full disclosure regarding your case. During this time, we will make all court appearances on your behalf. We want the process to cause the least disruption to your life.

Decision

Once we have all your disclosure and your side of the story, we will present you with a number of options as to how you may want to proceed. Sometimes, there is no decision to make as we often are able to convince the Crown Prosecutor not to proceed.

Resolution

We pride ourselves on having reached a successful resolution for most of our past clients, whether the case has gone to trial or not. We do our best to streamline the process and involve you as much as possible or necessary. We do not bill the full amount until the case is resolved.
