We understand the sensitive nature of these cases and are committed to providing our clients with the support and expertise they need during these challenging times.

Thorough Investigation: The Key to Your Defence

Our approach to domestic assault cases is grounded in a thorough investigation process. We delve deep into the details of each case, gathering evidence, and examining all facets to build a strong defence.

It is important to recognize that contrary to most people’s beliefs, the complainant is not in control of the case. The most common question we get is: “can’t she just drop the charges?” The answer, unfortunately, is no. In Canada, unlike in the United States, it is the government that lays and drops charges, not a person. As a result, even when the complainant is “off-side” the prosecution, this is no guarantee that the Crown will withdraw the charges. It is necessary to review the case thoroughly and to prepare the best defence possible.

Gathering and Analyzing Evidence

• Interviews and Statements: We conduct comprehensive interviews with all involved parties and witnesses to gather a complete picture of the incident.
• Documenting Injuries and Medical Reports: If injuries are involved, we meticulously review medical reports and documentations to understand the extent and nature of the injuries.

Handling Complex Evidence with Care

Domestic assault cases often involve various types of evidence, from physical to digital. Our legal team is adept at handling these complexities, ensuring that all evidence is collected, preserved, and presented effectively.

• Physical Evidence: We ensure proper collection and preservation of any physical evidence that could be pivotal to your case.
• Digital Footprints: In today’s digital era, text messages, emails, and social media can play a significant role. We are skilled in extracting and interpreting this digital evidence while adhering to legal standards.

Crafting a Compelling Case

Presenting a domestic assault case in court requires not only a deep understanding of the law but also the ability to craft a compelling narrative that accurately represents our client’s situation.

• Strategic Legal Planning: We develop a tailored legal strategy that aligns with the specific circumstances of your case.
• Effective Courtroom Advocacy: Our lawyers are experienced in advocating for our clients in court, presenting the evidence clearly and persuasively.
