Working with Ishan was a smooth experience during a stressful time. He was very transparent about expectations and worked efficiently to get my charges dropped entirely. Throughout the process, he provided the right answers to every technical question I had. While I would have liked a bit more promptness in acknowledging my messages (even just a 'received' note as he does for missed calls), his legal strategy was flawless. I’m very happy with the result and would definitely hire him again

I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer or a better outcome. Ishan was able to successfully get all of my charges dropped, and throughout the entire process he made everything very simple and stress-free for me.

Ishan handled all of my court appearances and kept me consistently updated so I always knew what was happening with my case. He also helped get some of my bail conditions modified, which made a big difference at the time by reducing the restrictions I was under.

I truly appreciated Ishan’s professionalism, communication, and dedication to getting the best possible result. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a knowledgeable and reliable lawyer.

I don’t know who might really needs to read this, but if you’re feeling lost and looking for someone trustworthy, I truly recommend Ishan Sharma from my own experience. He handled my case during a very difficult time with calmness, honesty, and real patience. From the first meeting, he listened without judgment, explained things clearly, and never gave false promises—just straight, sincere guidance. He was always respectful when I had questions, his fees were reasonable, and I always felt he genuinely cared about helping me move forward. After many months, my case was resolved, and I’m deeply thankful for his support and dedication. Writing this review simply feels right because good people who do their work with sincerity deserve to be appreciated.

Frequently Asked Questions

The most important thing is to exercise your right to remain silent. Do not answer police questions or give a statement without consulting your lawyer first. Politely ask to contact your lawyer immediately. If you don’t have one, request a duty counsel lawyer (a lawyer available to provide free legal advice). Remember that statements you make to police can be used as evidence against you, and you generally cannot rely on your own out-of-court statements to support your defence. That’s why it’s almost always best to stay silent until you’ve spoken with a lawyer.

Yes, it’s always advisable to have a lawyer on your side. Criminal law is complex, and even seemingly minor charges can have serious consequences like jail time, fines, license suspensions, or a criminal record. A lawyer can explain the charges, protect your rights, and potentially get the charges withdrawn or significantly reduced.

Unfortunately, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Cases can be resolved in a few months or take well over a year, depending on things like the seriousness of the charges, court backlogs, and the complexity of your case. Our commitment at LawStop is to move your case forward as efficiently as possible while always ensuring your rights are protected.

Outcomes can range from having the charges withdrawn, negotiating a plea deal for a lesser offence, going to trial and being found not guilty, or being found guilty and receiving a sentence. The specific circumstances of your case and the strength of your legal arguments will determine the likely outcomes. Our goal is to fight for the best possible resolution in your situation.

We are often successful in obtaining resolutions for our clients that do not result in a criminal record. Some of these outcomes include:

  • Common Law Peace Bond
  • S. 810 Peace Bond
  • Absolute Discharge
  • Conditional Discharge
  • Administrative Conviction
  • “Not Guilty” at Trial

We understand that cost is a major concern. Criminal defence fees vary based on your charges, the complexity of your case, and the estimated amount of time required to achieve the best outcome. We believe in transparency. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your options and provide a clear estimate of fees. We are also able to offer flexible payment plans.

Bail is the release of an accused person from custody while they await trial. At a bail hearing, a judge or justice of the peace will decide if you can be released and, if so, under what conditions (e.g., reporting to police, staying away from certain people). The goal of bail is to ensure you appear in court while protecting the public’s safety.

It might be possible. You may be eligible for a Record Suspension (formerly known as a Pardon). This means your criminal record is kept separate and doesn’t show up on background checks. Eligibility depends on factors like the type of offence and the time that has passed since your sentence was completed. We can assess your eligibility and guide you through the application process.

Being charged means the police believe you committed a crime. Being convicted means a judge or jury has found you guilty after a trial, or you have pleaded guilty. It’s crucial to remember that you are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
