Our Practice Areas

We have extensive experience, enabling us to handle any criminal offence allegations, including:

HOMICIDES

Manslaughter and murder are recognized as homicide in Canadian Law. A homicide is categorized as manslaughter if the offender didn’t have the intention of causing death. That means the cause of death could be an unlawful act or criminal negligence. The court may find you guilty of criminal negligence if you acted recklessly or failed to act, resulting in bodily harm or the death of another person. If convicted of manslaughter, you face up to life imprisonment.

 

On the other hand, murder is classified into first-degree and second-degree murder depending on whether the defendant planned and deliberately caused another person’s death. If the killing was deliberate and planned, the defendant may be convicted of first-degree murder. This criminal charge attracts a life imprisonment without parole for 25 years.

 

You may be charged with second-degree murder if you didn’t plan the killing but was intentional. Such offences occur when murder happens in the heat of the moment. If convicted of second-degree murder, you face life imprisonment with no parole for ten years. Our lawyers will:
