Charged with a criminal offense?
No matter how many episodes of Law & Order you’ve seen, nothing prepares you for being arrested and charged for the first time. And, if it’s not the first time, it’s even more serious. It’s scary, emotionally draining and can affect the rest of your life.
That’s how the law works. So you need an ally who knows how to make the law work for you.
The Hamilton Law Group has represented both individuals and corporations charged with a wide range of summary offenses, indictable offenses and hybrid offences, including: assault, embezzlement, fraud, motor vehicle offences, robbery, sexual assault, and white collar crimes.
All criminal charges are serious, with serious penalties and long term consequences. So your defense must start long before the court date arrives, if it ever comes to that. Depending on the type of crime and the specific charge, the prosecution has to prove the validity of the charges, the time frames, proper jurisdiction and identify you as the allegedly guilty party. A lot can happen before the verdict comes down. So it’s important that you contact a legal representative as soon as possible, even if you are only under investigation.
Our Criminal Defence team will analyse the charges and the facts of the case and formulate a strategy to eliminate or minimize a fine, jail sentence or permanent criminal record.
