I am a dedicated criminal defence lawyer based in Calgary, Alberta.

For me every case is unique, and I take the time to listen, understand, and address your concerns. I'm here to provide you with personalized legal solutions tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.

Alongside criminal defence, I also offer legal services in human rights law and civil litigation.

SERVICES

  • I offer services in many areas of criminal criminal defence, including, but not limited to: Assault, Drug Offences, Theft and Property Crimes, Sexual Offences, Weapons offences, Impaired Driving (DUI/DWI), Domestic Violence, Youth Offences, and more.

  • Assisting clients in bail hearings to secure their release from custody pending trial.

  • In Canada, administrative offenses, often referred to as "administrative violations" or "regulatory offenses," are non-criminal violations of federal, provincial, or municipal laws and regulations. These offenses are distinct from criminal offenses, which involve more serious breaches of the criminal law and can lead to criminal convictions, imprisonment, and other significant penalties. Administrative offenses, on the other hand, are typically dealt with through administrative or regulatory processes and may result in fines, warnings, or other non-criminal consequences.

  • Appeals are an essential component of the justice system and play a critical role in ensuring that legal proceedings are fair, just, and consistent with the law. If you wish to Appeal a Court decision, please contact me.

  • Human rights law in Alberta is an essential component of ensuring equality and inclusivity in various aspects of life, from employment to access to goods and services. It plays a crucial role in fostering a society that values and protects the dignity and rights of all its residents. If you believe that your human rights have been violated, or believe that you have been falsely accused of violating human rights law, please contact me.

I understand that facing criminal charges can be a challenging, complex, and frightening experience. It's a situation where your entire life can hang in the balance, and the weight of the legal system can feel overwhelming. The fear of the unknown, the potential consequences, and the impact on your reputation and future can be paralyzing. Your well-being and future are my top priorities, and I'm here to stand by your side every step of the way.

If you're facing a legal challenge in the realm of criminal defense or human rights law, you don't have to go through it alone. I'm here to be your advocate, guide, and ally throughout the legal process. Together, we'll navigate the complexities of the law and work tirelessly to protect your rights and achieve the best possible outcome.

Your peace of mind and your rights matter. Please contact me at anytime so we can take the first steps towards resolving your legal challenges.
