A good defence can be expensive. The cost of your case will typically depend on the seriousness and complexity of your legal matter. The more complex the case, the longer it can take to bring it to a close.
Not knowing the cost of your defence can add stress and uncertainty to the process. That’s why I value transparency when it comes to discussions with my clients about what my legal services will cost. My clients know what to plan for, and they don’t have any unwelcome surprises in the bill. At our first meeting, I’ll provide you with an estimate of the cost of your legal fees.
I accept legal aid retainers on serious trial matters and on appeals. Whether or not you qualify for legal aid depends on your finances and the nature of the charge against you.

If you think you may qualify for legal aid, you should contact Legal Aid BC immediately, as it can take time to go through the legal aid application process.
