A criminal record can have lifelong ramifications. Choose a criminal lawyer with the experience and commitment to provide quality and thorough legal representation. A criminal record can restrict a person's ability to obtain or keep employment, pursue advanced education, become a Canadian citizen, remain in Canada, and travel.
The Attorney-General has issued a policy directive to Crown Attorneys to prosecute all domestic and spousal assault allegations if it appears there is a likelihood of successful prosecution. In some cases it may be appropriate to follow this policy but the problem is, is that it is a rigid policy that may fail to address often complex family dynamics.
There are extremely strict laws in Canada outlined in the criminal code about child pornography and individuals accessing or possessing materials that are classified by the Courts as "obscene". Because there is a very broad definition of what constitutes "child pornography" in the Criminal Code, Canadian laws are particularly onerous.

Ms. Currie from Currie Law is a seasoned and very professional lawyer that makes every case a priority. Having to deal with the courts through COVID-19 wasn’t an easy task,Thankfully Ms.Currie was very attentive to my case and kept me updated throughout the whole process. The severity of my charges had me worried, loss of sleep, and always worried for my overall safety, but having Ms.Currie and her teams help I felt a sense of peace and mind that I wasn’t getting at other firms.
Currie Law is a very professional firm that looks out for your best interest and will get the best results possible

I am writing this review to thank Ms.Currie and her firm for her guidance and patience with my case. They were quick to respond and always answered my questions promptly. Her expertise help my case so much. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. She took the time to explain and give her opinion on how she thought things would work to help my case. Also, I was having terrible anxiety and stress and right from the beginning she said to get some help to deal with the stress the case was going to cause for me. I can’t imagine having gone with anyone else. Ms. Currie really handles the courtroom

As someone who found themself in a troubling, compilated and serious legal situation; with no prior experience with the legal process, seeking legal representation was a daunting task to say the least.
I was fortunate enough to come across Ms. Currie’s information and reached out to her for legal advice and to pre-emptively schedule a consultation. After my first phone call with Ms. Currie, my initial impression of her was incredibly positive. She spoke professionally, without judgement, and explained what the legal process would entail in a way that was easy to understand, for someone with

My son and I were here from the states when he was charged with a serious criminal charge. We knew nobody and had to rely on google ads to find a good criminal lawyer but didn’t know how meaningful they were. This firm had good reviews as did another so we visited them both. I must say that from the beginning with Maureen we understood why she was so highly reviewed she was understanding and gave us a lot of good information for us to consider. I was very impressed when she actually suggested we check out other firms to make our decision. We did and hired her. She is a very direct woman who certainly

Maureen handled my case with professionalism throughout the entire process. She kept me updated every step of the way and ensured that I had a firm understanding of the information she provided me with. Not once did she try to mislead me about the outcome she could achieve. As a result of her hard work, extensive knowledge, and capabilities in the courtroom she was able to achieve my desired outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Maureen to someone in need of a good criminal defense lawyer.

My dealings with Maureen Currie from Currie Law were amazing . I found her very professional, reliable, extremely knowledgeable and honest with integrity. If she thought you are wasting money on pursuing an issue, she would tell you right up. She always kept her promises of return phone calls or deadlines. She was the best part of a very difficult time for me and always seemed to deliver more than she promised. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a "great" lawyer!
