Criminal Law
Any interactions with the law are stressful enough. Involvement with the Criminal Justice system, where the potential loss of your liberty and having a criminal record is a possibility, is even more so.
What you need to know is that when you are charged with a criminal offence, you enjoy an absolute presumption of innocence, and the crown needs to discharge its burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Not only is it the highest burden of proof in the whole of the common law, but this burden of proof extends to each and every one of the elements of the offence you may have been charged with.
What you also need to understand is that oftentimes a criminal matter can be resolved in a way that results in neither jail time, nor a criminal record, depending on the circumstances. Every case is unique, and if you find yourself charged with a criminal offence, you need legal counsel who understands this, and can help you navigate the law in a way that gets you the best possible result.
At Hinz Law we are dedicated to understanding every aspect of your case, and your specific circumstances. We will vigorously defend your rights throughout the process to provide you with the best results possible in the circumstances.
