Here to Stand With You, Every Step of the Way.

At the heart of my practice is a commitment to protecting clients with compassion, clarity, and skill. I am a criminal defence lawyer with a broad and dynamic practice, serving individuals across British Columbia and Canada.

Criminal Defence Services

I focus my practice on defending individuals charged with sexual and violent offences — some of the most serious and stigmatizing allegations a person can face. These cases are emotionally charged, legally complex, and can carry lifelong consequences. You need a lawyer who will not only work tirelessly to protect your rights and freedom but who will treat you with dignity, discretion, and compassion every step of the way.

I defend against a wide range of criminal offence charges, including:

  • Sexual offences, including historical assault allegations
  • Internet and pornography-based offences
  • Youth criminal justice matters
  • Assault and violent offences
  • Theft, robbery, and property offences
  • Drug charges

I understand how overwhelming and isolating this process can be — especially when you’re presumed guilty in the court of public opinion. I take the time to listen, explain your options in plain language, and build a defence tailored to your specific circumstances. I also recognize the broader impacts on your mental health, relationships, and livelihood, and work holistically to support you through it all.

If you’ve been charged or are under investigation, don’t wait. Your future is too important. I’m here to help. I represent clients of all races, sexualities, backgrounds, and tax brackets. Whether you’re under investigation or seeking to appeal a conviction, I will defend you fiercely, treat you with respect, and make sure you’re never left to face the system alone.

Prison Law

I offer skilled representation in administrative and correctional matters, including:

  • Parole and disciplinary hearings
  • Prisoner rights advocacy
  • Detention and segregation reviews
  • Institutional complaints and appeals

I understand the unique challenges faced by incarcerated individuals and work to ensure their voices are heard.

Professional Disciplinary & Regulatory Law

I also represent professionals in regulatory and employment-related proceedings. I have successfully assisted:

  • Firefighters
  • Police officers
  • Teachers
  • Healthcare professionals

Whether the issue involves workplace discipline, professional licensing, or misconduct allegations, I provide respectful, strategic support tailored to your career and reputation.
