Criminal Law
If you've been arrested and charged with a criminal offence, you are legally presumed innocent until the Crown has proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt. You are entitled to speak with a lawyer before making any statements to investigators.
Hicks & Hicks can assist you with a variety of criminal charges, including, but not limited to:
- Assault
- Mischief
- Uttering threats
- Theft
- Drinking and driving
- Drug offences
Sometimes innocent people are charged. Sometimes seemingly trivial conduct can result in a criminal charge. For example, playing music too loudly could result in a criminal charge for “mischief”.
Being charged with a criminal offence can be overwhelming and stressful and the consequences of a conviction can be devastating. Every criminal charge should be taken seriously. Hicks & Hicks can help you mount a vigorous defence or negotiate the best possible resolution to your matter. Give us a call.
