Help – I’ve Been Charged With An Offense!
Have you been charged with a criminal, quasi-criminal, or regulatory offence? These charges never come at a “good” time. Being charged with an offence can be scary and disruptive to your life, so it’s important to act swiftly when your reputation, career, and/or well-being are at stake.
In Canada, you are innocent until proven guilty and it is the responsibility of the Crown Attorney to prove guilt in a court of law. It can feel, however, that the burden is on you to defend yourself. It is also possible for an individual to be charged based on false or exaggerated claims. This is why it’s so important to have a criminal defence lawyer in your corner to ensure that your rights are upheld as your matter passes through the criminal justice system.

Retaining A Criminal Defense Lawyer While In Custody
If you are being kept in police custody until your bail hearing or pending trial, it is even more important to secure legal counsel right away. You have the right to representation and the police are obligated to allow you to contact a lawyer once you have been searched for weapons and the police have completed the booking process.
Once you have asked for a lawyer, the police are no longer entitled to keep questioning you. If you do not have a lawyer, you are entitled to call someone who is not a lawyer as long as the purpose of the call is for that person to help you get in touch with a lawyer.
