Criminal Defence at All Levels of Court in Ontario
Lawyers from Hicks Adams appear in all levels of court in Ontario, both trial and appellate.
Jury trials are reserved for the most serious charges under the Criminal Code. We frequently defend against these major charges, where our in-depth knowledge of the law, the rules of evidence and the Charter of Rights is of immense benefit to our clients. Depending on the specifics of the case, trial may not be required. However, we prepare every case as though it is going to trial, knowing the importance of preparing for every opportunity to defend the rights of our clients.
Appeals are considerably challenging at all levels. It is a significant accomplishment for a law firm to bring an appeal to the highest level, the Supreme Court of Canada, let alone succeed at that level. Our lawyers have done it.
In addition to criminal defence cases ranging from DUI and drug charges to the most serious violent crimes, as well as appeals, our law firm handles:
Liquor license offences
Workplace safety
Immigration
