Criminal Defence & Notary Public · Strictly Confidential Free Consultation (416) 306-3442

Criminal defence practice areas.

Facing a criminal charge can change your life in an instant. You need more than a lawyer — you need an advocate who understands the stakes and fights relentlessly for your rights. Sai Law is a dedicated criminal defence firm — and also provides notary public services.

Impaired Driving & Over 80

“Your licence. Your livelihood. Your record.”

Your driver’s licence is often essential for work, family and everyday life. A conviction for impaired driving or “Over 80” brings immediate and long-term consequences: licence suspension, fines, insurance impacts and a permanent criminal record.

We review every step of the police investigation — from the initial stop to roadside screening and breathalyzer procedures — to expose weaknesses in the Crown’s evidence and protect your right to drive.

Discuss your case

Domestic Assault

“Fight the allegation — and the conditions keeping you from home.”

Domestic allegations are emotionally charged and often come with strict no-contact orders that can remove you from your home and family.

We approach these cases with discretion and strategy, working to protect your reputation and your long-term family relationships while navigating the complexities of these high-stakes situations.

Discuss your case

Sexual Assault

“An allegation is not a verdict.”

Sexual assault charges carry severe penalties and significant stigma. Even an allegation can damage your life before a trial begins.

We provide a rigorous, judgement-free defence — challenging credibility, exposing inconsistencies and ensuring your presumption of innocence is upheld.

Discuss your case

Drug Offences

“Unlawful search? The evidence shouldn’t stand.”

From possession to trafficking, drug cases often depend on the legality of police searches, seizures and investigations.

We scrutinize every stage for breaches of your Charter rights. If police overstepped their authority, we move to have improperly obtained evidence excluded from the case.

Discuss your case

Fraud & Theft

“The Crown’s paper trail, taken apart line by line.”

Crimes of dishonesty — from employee theft to large-scale fraud — can harm your reputation, career and financial future.

We analyze complex documents, financial records and investigative procedures to challenge the prosecution’s narrative, or negotiate resolutions that minimize the long-term impact on your record and livelihood.

Discuss your case

Violent Offences

“Every incident has context. The court will hear it.”

Assault, aggravated assault and weapons-related charges carry significant risks, including lengthy jail sentences.

We investigate the full context of the incident — self-defence, consent, provocation and witness credibility — to build a compelling narrative that challenges the prosecution’s version of events.

Discuss your case

Bail Hearings

“Every day in custody matters. We move fast.”

Securing your release is critical. Being held in custody makes preparing a defence significantly more difficult.

We act quickly to develop an effective bail plan, communicate with the Crown and advocate strongly before the court to obtain your release on the least restrictive conditions possible.

Discuss your case

Youth Crimes

“A mistake made in youth should not dictate an entire future.”

The youth justice system operates differently from adult court, with a focus on rehabilitation.

We advocate for young people to ensure that one bad decision does not result in a permanent record that closes doors to education, travel and employment.
