Criminal Law


Bail Hearings

If you or a loved one finds yourselves in the challenging situation of being arrested and held in custody, reaching out to a seasoned criminal lawyer is crucial. We're here for you around the clock, every day of the week, providing support for bail hearings throughout the Greater Toronto Area and the province of Ontario. Your freedom matters, and we're committed to helping you secure it swiftly.


Assault


Facing assault charges is a grave matter, carrying the potential for a criminal record and incarceration upon conviction. Our firm specializes in defending against various assault charges, boasting a strong track record of achieving favorable outcomes for our clients. We understand the seriousness of the situation and are dedicated to skillfully navigating the legal process to secure the best possible results for you.


Drug Related Offences


In Canada, drug offenses are outlined in the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Even a conviction for a minor drug offense can bring about significant and lasting repercussions, including a criminal record, job loss, and travel restrictions. The potential for a lengthy prison term adds to the severity of the situation.

Our firm is well-versed in effectively defending against a spectrum of drug offenses. We take pride in our successful track record and are committed to securing optimal outcomes for our clients in every case. Your future matters, and we are dedicated to navigating the complexities of drug-related legal challenges to protect your interests.


Intellectual Property

Ideas, tangible or not, are the most important things to protect in today’s competitive creative market. With so many channels and constantly replenishing feeds to watch out for, tracing the ownership and originality of a design, brand name, or invention needs the laser-focused eye of a trained attorney. We’ll handle the search, application, and filing process of trademarks, copyrights, and patents. And if your idea has been infringed upon, our litigation team will negotiate the best possible licensing and settlement agreements.


Art Litigation

Demystifying art law is in itself a creative practice. It requires finesse, strategic structuring, and, in many ways, empathy. At the end of the day, art and its worth is profoundly personal. In such matters, mediation or arbitration almost always yields the most fulfilling results. However, should the occasion arise, our lawyers are more than prepared to move into litigation. From artists, agents, dealers, galleries, museums, and auction houses, our clients have always walked away from their disputes or deals knowing that their core interests were preserved.


Digital Media & Technology

The internet, software, and technology are so pervasive that we can’t remember having ever lived without them. They make our lives simpler, but behind the curtain are fluctuating challenges in protection and monetization; challenges that our firm stays two steps ahead of. We’ve helped engineers, inventors, gaming startups, and entrepreneurs develop, license, sell, and maintain ownership over their creations. We’ve also negotiated purchasing and partnership agreements for larger investment companies looking for their unicorn.


Liability & Risk

Whether you run a theater, recording studio, or an eCommerce website, all businesses need to minimize their legal liability and risk. Our lawyers will assess the structure of your operation, such as its physical or digital space, the types of products you sell, who your consumers are, what type of company you have filed under (LLC, Inc, etc.), and so on. From there, we will tailor the right risk plan, complete with permit applications, insurance policies, and more, so you can worry less about liabilities and concentrate on growing your business.
