I've been a criminal defense and child protection lawyer serving Ottawa and Eastern Ontario since 2002. Follow me on Twitter @gilbertcrimlaw
If you are charged with a criminal offence, you will want a criminal defence lawyer who will vigorously defend you, and who will leave no stone unturned. You will want a criminal defence lawyer who is both experienced and well respected. You will want a criminal defence lawyer who has been practicing in Ottawa and its surrounding areas for close to 15 years, and who knows how to navigate the criminal justice system.
If you are a parent whose child has been apprehended by the Children's Aid Society (CAS) of Ottawa or other child welfare agency, you will want a child protection defence lawyer who will give you attention, care and thorough representation. These are all necessary qualities in a defence lawyer when defending a case against any child welfare agency.
