Criminal Procedures
Charter Challenges
Charter Challenges are very complex and their success rates are very low. A lawyer understands the procedure, the burden and standard of proof, and what it takes to emerge victorious.
Preliminary Inquiries
You should be prepared well for a preliminary inquiry since this is where the weight of the Crown’s case is determined and there is a likelihood of acquittal before trial.
Expert Testimony
Expert testimony can make or break your case. You should consider hiring a lawyer to examine and cross-examine your witnesses and prosecution witnesses to make your story more believable.
Judicial Pre-Trials
Hire a lawyer for your judicial pretrial, since this is where important matters on how the trial will proceed will be discussed. This is also an opportunity for plea negotiations.
Jury & Non-Jury Trials
You could have your case heard by a jury or a judge. The choice should be based on the particular circumstances of your case. Hire a lawyer to help you choose.
Challenges For Cause
Not all jurors are impartial. Make a challenge for cause if you feel the juror may be prejudiced against you. The judge will determine if the challenge has merit.
