Durham Region criminal defence lawyer 
In your corner from the start

Facing a criminal charge is one of the most stressful experiences of a person's life, and you deserve more than a lawyer who simply goes through the motions. I am a criminal defence lawyer serving Durham Region, and I built my practice believing that every client deserves a defence strategy built specifically for them. I scrutinize the evidence, hold the Crown to its obligations, and ensure the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is not just a document.

I grew up in Whitby playing hockey and soccer, learning what it meant to be part of a team. During my youth I was surrounded by passionate criminal defence lawyers which sparked my path to the courtroom. 

I attended to Bond University in Australia, where a passion for mooting and live advocacy made the choice clear: I was meant to be on my feet, advocating for people. I strongly believe we are not defined by our worst moments, and whether you are facing charges from Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, Pickering, or anywhere across Durham Region, I am ready to stand beside you. On your team.

"Every client I meet is going through one of the most stressful and hardest moments of their life. My job is to make sure they don't face it alone."
