Find a Canadian Lawyer or Law Firm

I have been practicing exclusively as a criminal trial defence lawyer since 1974, Toronto based. I specialize in matters that have serious consequences for anyone facing the attentions of the criminal justice system. I am familiar with the court system at all levels and have conducted trials throughout the province from Elliott Lake to Kingston, Brampton, Hamilton, Oshawa, Ottawa, Peterborough, London and Toronto. I have brought all kinds of cases to a successful conclusion including impaired driving, theft, conspiracy to import drugs, trafficking, sexual assault, fraud and homicide. Theoretically the criminal justice system presumes you are innocent. You will find that you will not feel you are being treated that way. If you retain me, you will be defended by an aggressive, skillful and experienced advocate. I promise you that, in the face of the police, the prosecutor and the court system itself, I will dedicate myself to the protection of your rights and defence of your innocence.
