Our Practice Areas
Bail Hearing
After being arrested and charged with a criminal offence, in some cases, one is kept in custody awaiting a bail hearing. A bail hearing is a crucial part of a criminal case, as it determines whether the accused will be released or remain in custody for the time leading up to the trial. Given that the trial may be months away, one should retain an experienced lawyer to help them get bail. An excellent surety is also required for a successful bail hearing.
At Zamani Law, our criminal lawyers handle many bail hearings every year. They thoroughly review the case, prepare the defendant and the surety, and find effective solutions to any issues that may arise during the hearing. If you or someone you know are in custody awaiting a bail hearing, contact our Milton criminal defence lawyers for legal counsel.
Domestic Violence
This entails assaults that occur within a domestic relationship, i.e., married partners, parent/child, dating couples, and common-law partners. In the criminal justice system, domestic assault charges are handled differently than other assault allegations. Domestic violence cases are complex, given the relationship between the accused and the plaintiff. Although the cases are tried differently, they pose significant consequences upon the finding of guilt. Therefore, if you’ve been charged with domestic violence, you should retain an experienced criminal defence lawyer to defend you throughout the whole process.
Zamani Law has litigated many domestic violence cases, from bail hearings to trial. We have successfully defended clients to attain favourable outcomes. Get in touch with our Milton criminal defence lawyers for a free assessment of your domestic violence case.
Youth Offences
In the criminal justice system, youths (persons below the age of 18 years) are treated differently than adults. They are charged and prosecuted under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA). The YCJA provides a wide variety of extrajudicial measures aimed at the rehabilitation of young offenders and the prevention of further criminal behaviour and criminal records. Although the youth justice system offers extra protection to young offenders, it still poses serious, lifelong consequences, including criminal records and incarceration. It is, therefore, imperative to get expert legal advice when charged with a criminal offence as a youth.
Youths have a long life ahead of them, which we strive to protect by vigorously defending them. Zamani Law criminal defence lawyers have successfully represented young offenders, getting their charges reduced or withdrawn to avert a criminal record. Contact us today, and we’ll help fight your youth offence charges.
Driving Offences & DUI
Driving offences include impaired driving, refusing a breathalyzer, over 80, and driving while suspended. In Canada, driving offences have serious repercussions that can derail your life, including jail sentences, criminal records, and license suspension. When charged with a driving offence, it’s in your best interest to enlist the services of an experienced criminal defence lawyer.
Zamani Law has successfully defended persons facing various driving offence charges in Milton. Our lawyers strive to help them mitigate severe allegations and the consequences they may face upon conviction. If you are charged with a driving offence in Milton, contact Zamani law. We’ll review your case thoroughly and advise on the best way forward.
Drug Crimes
The possession, trafficking, and importation of controlled drugs and substances are some of the drug crimes that can result in drug charges. These are some of the most severe criminal charges that one can face in Canada. They carry severe long-term consequences upon conviction, including mandatory minimum jail sentences, employment limitations, and travel restrictions. Because of this, it’s essential to retain a highly qualified and experienced criminal lawyer.
Our Milton criminal defence lawyers are extensively experienced in drug-related charges as they have successfully defended persons charged with even the most complex drug crimes. Drug laws are complex and rapidly changing, which is why our lawyers stay up to date with all the new developments to defend our clients better. If you’re facing drug allegations, contact Zamani Law for expert legal counsel.
Assault & Threats
According to the Canadian Criminal Code, an assault is the intentional application of force on another person without their consent. Threats, without the application of force, can also constitute an assault if the words, deeds, or actions lead someone to believe that the use of force is imminent. There are different degrees of assault, including aggravated assault, assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, and more.
Assaults and threats are violent crimes, which are taken very seriously by the Crown and Court. They carry drastic penalties, including long incarcerations and criminal records. Therefore, to protect yourself, it’s essential to retain a skilled attorney. Zamani Law has highly-experienced and knowledgeable criminal defence lawyers capable of taking on any assault or threat case. If you, or someone you love, are charged with such offences, contact our lawyers for a free, no-obligation consultation.
Weapon Charges
Gun charges range from standalone offences to charges connected to other crimes such as robbery. Some gun offences include importing weapons, carrying a concealed gun, possession of unlicensed firearms, trafficking weapons, illegal use of firearms, and possession of restricted firearms. Gun-related offences are among crimes with some of the most drastic consequences under the Canadian Criminal Code, including long incarcerations, criminal records, and suspension of your gun license.
Given the potential penalties of a conviction, it’s advisable to retain a highly experienced lawyer to protect your rights and liberties. At Zamani Law, our criminal defence lawyers are well-versed with gun laws and gun-related charges. They analyze your case and develop a strong defence strategy to get you acquitted or get the charges dropped in favour of lesser ones. Contact us for a free consultation.
Theft & Fraud
Theft and fraud crimes involve the acquisition of public or personal property, such as land, money, or shares, through fraudulent means. These crimes are divided into two, i.e., offences under $5000(hybrid crimes) and offences over $5000(indictable). The penalties imposed upon conviction vary depending on the nature, sophistication and value of the stolen property. Keeping in mind that one may face up to 14 years in jail for indictable theft or fraud offences, retaining an experienced attorney is essential.
At Zamani Law, we have successfully represented clients charged with simple shoplifting offences to major fraud schemes. We are well-acquainted with property laws and highly experienced in fraud and theft-related cases. Get in touch with our Milton criminal defence lawyers for expert legal advice.
Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is one of the most serious crimes in Canada, with severe life-altering penalties. Such charges can be brought forth if you recruit, transport, hold, harbour, receive, or transfer another person. One can also face human trafficking charges if they indirectly benefit from sexual or forced labour exploitation of another person. There are many other offences that constitute a human trafficking charge, all carrying serious penalties, including mandatory minimum jail sentences. Having a skilled criminal defence lawyer representing you when charged with human trafficking can help mitigate the allegations against you.
Zamani Law has litigated many human trafficking cases, giving us the expertise to handle any allegations against you.

Sexual Assault
Sexual assault encompasses any unsolicited sexual acts, including sexual touching, kissing, and rape. Sexual assault charges, no matter how minor, carry extreme penalties beyond long jail sentences and probation, including inclusion in the National Sex Offender Registry, DNA orders, and employment restrictions. Even without a conviction, sexual assault allegations have long-reaching effects, including stigmatization. Therefore, if you, or someone you love, are charged with sexual assault, retain an experienced lawyer with extensive expertise in the laws of evidence and other laws surrounding sexual assault charges.
Zamani law has the experience, knowledge, and resources required to take on even the most complex sexual assault charges. We guide the clients through the process, protect their rights and liberties, and strive to achieve the best possible outcome in every sexual assault case.

Robbery
Robbery is a violent crime involving the use of force or violence or threats to use force or violence to take or try to take another person’s property. This ranges from forcefully taking someone’s phone to bank robberies. Robbery charges are severe allegations as they carry harsh repercussions, including mandatory minimum penalties, long jail sentences, and criminal records. Robbery charges are complex, and it’s advisable to retain an experienced criminal defence lawyer for the best possible results.
At Zamani Law, we have successfully defended many persons facing robbery charges. With our experience and expertise, we can handle any robbery-related allegations. We take time to analyze every case and strategize on the most effective defence to attain the most favourable outcome.
Mischief
Mischief charges can be brought against you if you intentionally destroy, damage, or render any property dangerous or ineffective, or interfere with its lawful use. Mischief charges are categorized into two, i.e., offences over $5000 and offences under $5000. Although offences over $5000 carry more drastic consequences, all mischief charges carry serious penalties. Note that you can also face mischief charges for destroying your property if you did it for fraudulent reasons or it’s co-owned.
