Appeals

In cases were there has been an error of law, we offer appeals from bail detention orders; conviction; and sentencing at all appellate courts, including: Bail Review Courts; Summary Conviction Appeals; Ontario Court of Appeal; and the Supreme Court of Canada.

Organized Crime

These offences include participation in activities of criminal organization and commission of offence for criminal organization. These offences are often coupled with other criminal offences and will attract a jail sentence.

Sexual Offences

These offences include sexual assault; sexual interference; sexual exploitation; and invitation to sexual touching. All of these offences will attract a jail sentence. Furthermore, a conviction for these offences will result: (i) in a DNA order against an accused which would require the offender to provide a sample of their blood that will be stored in a databank along with other offenders and (ii) a mandatory reporting requirement to the Sexual Offender Information Registration Act.

Careless Driving

Although this offence is not an offence under the Criminal Code, it is a serious motor vehicle violation that can result in a license suspension or restrictions on your ability to drive; increased insurance premiums; and the imposition of demerit points into your driving record.

Similar to a conviction in dangerous driving, a party, who is seeking compensation against you in a civil court may use this conviction against you to bolster their claim in a subsequent civil proceeding.
