Areas
Practice Areas
We offer comprehensive criminal legal services to help with every kind of case and every type of crime, from theft to murder, from the first phone call from the police station to when the jury foreman says, “not guilty.”
Appeals
Appeals are not for beginners. To win an appeal, your criminal appeal lawyer must be a master of the written word, a creative legal thinker, and a persuasive oral advocate. AGP’s criminal appeal lawyers have the skills you need to win your case.
Assault
Minor fights to serious injuries, every assault charge must be taken seriously. One conviction can destroy your life. AGP’s team of criminal defence lawyers will fight to defend your reputation, your rights, and your liberty.
Bail Hearings
Getting bail is the difference between being able to work with your lawyer to build a strong defence and waiting behind bars for your trial. Every accused has the right to a bail hearing and AGP will fight for your freedom.
Domestic Assaults
Allegations of domestic assault are treated very seriously by prosecutors and courts. It is not just your liberty on the line; your family may be at stake. Don’t let a criminal charge tear apart your life.
Drinking and Driving
A conviction for drinking and driving can cost thousands of dollars in fines and increased insurance. No one can afford to lose their license. The AGP team of criminal defence lawyers will fight for your rights and your ability to drive.
Drug Offences
Police and prosecutors treat all drug offences as serious crimes. Drug convictions can mean jail, travel difficulties, and unemployment. But you have rights. Make sure you don’t face jail because the police violated your constitutional rights.
Homicide
Every partner at AGP has defended clients charged with murder—and every partner has won murder cases. When you are charged with the most serious crime, you need the most skilled criminal defence lawyers.
Sexual Assault
Being charged with a sexual offence is a nightmare for the innocent. The consequences and stigma of a conviction are severe. When the stakes are so high, expert legal representation is essential.
Supreme Court of Canada Appeals
It isn’t over until the Supreme Court says it’s over. AGP has been to the Supreme Court and we will fight for your innocence all the way to Canada’s highest court.
White Collar Crimes
White collar crime can still mean a criminal record and jail time. The lawyers at AGP have the tenacity and intelligence to go toe-to-toe with those who want to destroy your hard-earned reputation.
