Youth Crimes

A young person as defined under the Youth Criminal Justice Act is a person who is twelve years old or older, but less than eighteen years old. If you or a loved one is charged as a young person under the Act, you need to obtain advice from an experienced and aggressive criminal defence lawyer in Ontario.

A young person in Ontario may be charged with all types of offences including drug related offences, drinking and driving, sexual assault, manslaughter, murder, break and enter and theft. The system in Ontario is complicated and often confusing and having a defence lawyer who is familiar with the Act will prove to assist you greatly.

Criminal Defence Lawyer

A young person in Ontario has many rights afforded to them under the Act that vary from an adult being charged with a similar crime. As your defence lawyer I am familiar with all of these rights and I will provide you with the best defence possible. I understand the importance of a young person not obtaining a criminal record and as your criminal defence lawyer I understand the burden that a criminal allegation has on a young person.

If you or someone you know is looking for the best criminal defence lawyer, call me today at 416.944.8111.
