My Services

• Types of Legal Disputes
• Relationship breakdowns, being charged with
  an offence, or pursuing someone for an unpaid
  debt. These types of cases sometimes involve
  sophisticated issues of law and complicated
  legislation. Sound knowledge of Court procedure,
  written arguments and extensive discovery are
  often required. In most instances an average
  person without legal training is unable to
  recognize the legal issues involved, institute
  litigation, or assert the appropriate defenses.
  In addition, the average person does not possess
  the skills needed to develop facts, argue law,
  negotiate settlements, or prepare pleadings.
• Ontarios Legal System
• A lawyer is the key to accessing the benefits
  of Ontarios legal system and significantly
  improves ones ability to secure a favorable
  outcome.
• The harm resulting from an unfavorable
  outcome of a legal dispute can be severe and
  affect you for years. In most disputes the
  opposing party likely will have aggressive legal
  representation available. It doesnt make sense
  to try and save money by not using a lawyer. In
  fact, usually this strategy backfires and ends up
  costing you more in the long run.
• My Objective
• My aim is to provide the best possible legal
  services to my clients. I am proud of the work
  that I perform for my clients and the
  satisfaction they express with my services.
  People generally want a lawyer who is
  knowledgeable, readily available, and responsive
  to their questions and concerns. These are
  attributes I try to cultivate in my law practice.

Family Law

• Family law covers everything that has to do
  with the legal obligations and rights of people
  in family relationships.
• Ordinarily I see aspects of family law that
  have to do with the breakdown of marriage and
  common law relationships, although I also deal
  with domestic contracts, which happen at the
  beginning of a relationship.
• Nobody can truly plan for his or her marriage
  to break down. As a Kitchener family and divorce
  lawyer, I deal with all stages of the separation
  process including
• (a) Initial separation and divorce(b)
  Division of property, including complex issues of
  pensions, business properties and other
  financially complicated issues(c) Decisions
  about child care, and child and spousal support
  and(d) Post-divorce modifications and variations
  after a couple has been separated for a period of
  time
• My goal is always to get you through this
  time as efficiently as possible, so that you can
  begin the next stage of your life.
• For more information about separation,
  divorce, support, or to find out more about your
  rights and responsibilities under the Ontario
  Family Law Act, contact me by email or by calling
  519-804-9521.

Criminal Law

• I focus on delivering premium quality
  services to all my criminal law clients because I
  understand how stressful it is to be charged with
  a criminal offence. I will do everything I can to
  bring about the best possible result, which for
  many people means avoiding a criminal record. I
  am happy to explain the entire process to you,
  including the nature of the charges and the
  consequences you might be facing.
• When you are charged with an offence you may
  feel a sense of disbelief and that you have been
  victimized.  Sometimes innocent people get
  charged. Thats a fact of life.  Usually you will
  have at least a few questions about your rights
  and what your options are.  You might also have
  some questions about the criminal justice system
  and how things work. My main focus is on
  protecting your legal rights throughout the
  entire criminal process. I will endeavour to keep
  you informed every step of the way and to answer
  any questions you have.
• I can defend clients accused of a wide
  variety of criminal offences, including the ones
  below just to name a few.
• Common Offences
• (a) Impaired Driving (blood alcohol over
  0.08, marijuana, refusing to provide a breath
  sample, etc.)(b) Driving While Prohibited or
  Suspended and Dangerous Driving(c) Thefts
  (including theft under and over 5000, as well as
  theft from employers)(d) Fraud, Falsifying an
  Employment Record(e) Assaults (including
  domestic/spousal assault, sexual assault,
  aggravated assault and assault causing bodily
  harm)(f) Drug Charges (including possession,
  trafficking, possession for the purpose of
  trafficking controlled substances such as
  marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamines)(g)
  Weapons Offences (possession of a concealed
  weapon possession of prohibited weapon,
  possession of a weapon for a purpose dangerous to
  the public peace, and related offences).

Immigration Lawyer

• The majority of my law practice is family law
  and criminal law. However, I also practice some
  immigration law as well. This page will provide
  some general information about Canadian
  immigration law.
• Immigration Refugee Law
• During my articles I was fortunate enough to
  do some immigration law. So I do have some
  familiarity with this area of law, and in
  particular with appealing unfavourable decisions.
  That said, I am also able to assist clients who
  want to apply for visas. It is a good idea to
  entrust a lawyer to do this for you instead of an
  immigration agent because lawyers have spent
  several years studying law in university and
  sometimes the success or failure of an
  application to Citizenship and Immigration Canada
  depends on navigating legal hurdles. By hiring a
  lawyer do it, you significantly improve your odds
  of being successful. The downside is that having
  a lawyer assist you with it costs more.
  Administrative law in general is a pet area of
  mine that I enjoy working in, so if you want to
  apply for a visa or appeal an unfavourable
  decision, please give me a call.
