Bail Hearing
Setting the right tone for the rest of your case starts during your bail hearing. This is when a determination is made of whether you’ll remain incarcerated or you’ll be released under specific conditions pending your trial. A successful bail hearing makes it easier to work with your attorney and earns you some credibility. If your bail hearing fails, you can request a bail review.
The lawyers at Zamani Law firm conduct thorough research on criminal cases and any matters that would lead to the denial of your bail. They strive to ensure a successful bail hearing for their clients. Contact our experienced Newmarket defence lawyers for bail hearings or any related matters.
Domestic Violence
Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is a category of assault that occurs within a domestic setting, for example, between a couple or common-law partners. Due to the circumstances surrounding domestic violence offences, i.e., the relationship between the accused and the plaintiff, the cases are usually complex. This is why they are prosecuted differently from other types of assaults.
When facing domestic violence criminal charges, you should seek legal representation due to the potential consequences such offences carry. Over the years, Zamani Law has litigated for many clients accused of domestic assault in Newmarket. With our vast experience in such cases, we can help you mitigate the charges set against you.
Youth Offences
Youth Offences
Youths have a long life ahead of them that they should be given a chance to explore, without the burden of permanent criminal records and long term sentences. This is why the Youth Criminal Justice Act is used to investigate and prosecute young offenders. The act pushes for rehabilitation and reintegration of young offenders into society.
Even with the advantages provided by the Youth Criminal Justice act, youth offences still pose consequences that could impede a young person’s future. Therefore, it’s essential to enlist the services of an experienced criminal defence attorney in Newmarket to protect the rights and liberties of a young offender.
Driving Offences & DUI
Driving Offences & DUI
Impaired driving, careless driving, breath test refusal, and driving over 80, are a few of the driving offences that our Newmarket criminal defence lawyers can help you with. These charges carry different penalties, including driving prohibition, fines, license suspension, a criminal record, and more.
When charged with a driving-related offence, enlist the services of an experienced criminal defence lawyer capable of building a meticulous defence to fight your charges. Contact us for consultation on your case.
Drug Crimes
Drug Crimes
According to the Controlled Drugs and Substance Act, drug offences include trafficking, importing, possession, production, and possession with intent to traffic illegal and controlled drugs and substances. Drug charges are very serious, with some offences carrying mandatory sentences, permanent criminal records, and life imprisonment.
When faced with drug-related charges, it’s vital to seek legal advice. Zamani Law has experienced Newmarket criminal defence lawyers ready to take your case and help you obtain the best results possible. Get a free consultation on your drug charge with one of our lawyers.
Assault & Threats
Assault & Threats
Assault offences range from intentional pushdowns to causing bodily harm with a weapon. Such complaints are taken seriously by the Crown, and they may carry severe consequences, based on the assault. A threat encompasses actions, deeds, or words that may indicate an imminent assault.
Our lawyers are well-versed with assault and threat criminal charges. For many years, they have protected clients facing such charges through well-implemented defence strategies. Contact us today, and we will protect your rights and liberties.
Weapon Charges
Weapon Charges
Being charged with gun crimes, such as possession of prohibited firearms, trafficking, carrying a concealed firearm, possession of an unregistered gun, pointing a weapon, or illegal use of a gun, is a serious legal matter with severe consequences, including mandatory minimum sentences.
The Crown takes gun crimes seriously, particularly those involving assault or robbery with a firearm. Zamani Law has successfully represented many clients facing gun-related charges, and they can help you with your case. Contact us today for exceptional legal representation.
Theft & Fraud
Theft & Fraud
Theft is one of the most common offences in Ontario. It’s defined as taking or using another person’s property without any legal right. Fraud is a sophisticated category of theft that involves the acquisition of, or the attempt to acquire, property from an individual, business, or the public through devious tactics. The illicit use of public or someone else’s property for personal benefit is also considered fraud. Theft and fraud criminal charges are taken very seriously by the Crown, particularly when they involve defrauding the public.
Our Newmarket criminal defence lawyers have successfully defended persons accused of theft and fraud crimes. They have the expertise to thoroughly investigate the allegations against you and develop a strong defence to protect you.
Human Trafficking
Human Trafficking
The offences that lead to human trafficking charges are quite many, and they have the potential of harsh consequences, such as mandatory minimum sentences, upon the finding of guilt. According to the Criminal Code of Canada, a person can be charged with human trafficking if they transport, hold, harbour, receive, or transfer a person. Also, if you receive any benefits to facilitate human trafficking or directly or indirectly facilitate another person’s exploitation, criminal charges can be brought against you.
If you or someone you know are facing human trafficking charges in Newmarket, consider retaining Zamani Law Firm as your criminal defence lawyers. Our lawyers have years of experience protecting clients accused of trafficking, and they can get you the best results possible.
Sexual Assault
Sexual Assault
Sexual assault offences, and related sexual offences, have some of the most severe legal and public repercussions. A sexual assault offence entails using force to touch, kiss, have intercourse, or commit other sexual activities without consent. With the high stakes of such charges, the services of a highly qualified and experienced criminal defence lawyer are indispensable.
Our Newmarket lawyers have handled many sexual assault cases and obtained good results for clients while protecting their rights and reputation. If you’re being charged with sexual assault, contact us, and we’ll handle your case with the utmost professionalism.
Robbery
Robbery
As a violent offence, robbery is one of the most serious crimes one can be charged with. Unlike theft or fraud, robbery entails the use of force or violence, or threats to use violence, to obtain or attempt to obtain another person’s property. If convicted, the penalties imposed can be quite severe, especially for repeat offenders.
Having an experienced criminal defence lawyer who understands the intricacies of robbery cases can help you avert severe repercussions. Reach out to our Newmarket criminal defence lawyers for exceptional counsel on your case.
Mischief
Mischief
When you knowingly destroy or damage property, mischief criminal charges can be brought against you. You can also face charges if you interfere with the normal workings of property or render it useless or dangerous to the public. Mischief charges carry severe repercussions, and before you insinuate that you’re guilty, you should seek legal counsel.
Note that, in some cases, when you have a partial or total interest in the property, you can still be charged with a criminal offence—for instance, damaging property in your matrimonial home. Therefore, retaining an experienced criminal defence lawyer in Newmarket is vital, no matter how minor the alleged offence seems.
