Our team of experienced litigators is dedicated to getting you the best possible result and doing so in a timely way. We offer extensive experience inside and outside of the courtroom. We will explore every solution available to you and help you to decide whether to fight the allegations against you at a trial or take another path to resolve the matter.

We take our role as your advocate and ally seriously.

We believe strongly that everyone, regardless of the nature of the allegations they face or the apparent strength of the evidence against them, deserves a champion to fiercely defend and advance their case.

For each and every client, we undertake a detailed review of the evidence in order to enable you to make a full answer and defence. We do everything possible to ensure that your constitutional rights are protected.

Everyone charged with an offence is presumed innocent. We do everything we can to ensure that presumption is upheld.

The core of any good lawyer-client relationship is communication.

We will take the time necessary to ensure that you understand how the justice system functions. We understand that there is a backstory to every criminal allegation, and we are dedicated to learning and understanding yours so that we can provide you with the best legal services possible.

We strive to lift the weight off of your shoulders by carefully managing the progress of your case, so that you can live your life, work and care for your family.

Our firm takes a collaborative, team-based approach to all cases.

We bring a depth and breadth of experience to every case, drawing upon a diverse range of skill sets in order to defend you. We have a strong track record of negotiating favourable outcomes, and of succeeding in court when negotiation isn’t possible.

We are familiar with the many ways that cases can be resolved favourably and the steps needed to put our clients in the best possible position to succeed and move forward.

We are highly experienced and dedicated to our craft.

We have successfully defended people facing virtually every sort of charge you can think of, in every level of court in British Columbia. We have also acted as “ad hoc” prosecutors, which allows us to see cases from both sides.

We have substantial experience in other areas of law, including regulatory offences, professional misconduct, and before large public inquiries. From minor offences to large-complex cases, appeals and judicial reviews, our experience and skill enable us to put you in the best position possible to advance your interests.
