If you are facing criminal charges, it is critical that you secure the services of an experienced Toronto criminal defence lawyer as soon as possible. The consequences of a conviction for a criminal offence can be extremely severe. Having the right representation on your side can help ensure your rights are protected. For those with no prior criminal record, a first criminal conviction can change everything. Many describe acquiring a criminal record as a life-changing event and a barrier to leading a full and productive life. With increasing frequency, employers ask for a criminal record check as a condition of employment. A person with a criminal record may be unable to find work and is likely to stay in “unemployment jail” for a very long time. A criminal record also means that a person faces barriers to contributing to their community, volunteering at their children’s school or being able to travel freely, including for their employment.
