Alberta Criminal Defence Areas of Practice

At Davidson Gregory, we understand that being charged with a criminal offence can be overwhelming and life-changing. Our team offers skilled, focused defence across a broad spectrum of charges, ensuring your side is heard and your rights are protected. From initial arrest to final resolution, we stand with you every step of the way.

Bail Hearings

Timely bail is critical to your defence. We prepare compelling arguments for release, challenge detention, and work to secure reasonable conditions while your matter moves through the courts.

Commercial Crime

White-collar crime allegations often involve intricate legal and financial issues. We build clear, strategic defences that address complex documents, intent, and professional responsibilities.

Computer and Internet Crime

Cyber crime law evolves rapidly and requires technical expertise. We analyze digital evidence, challenge investigatory methods, and defend against internet-related allegations with precision.

Driving Offences

Most driving charges in Alberta land in one of two places: a criminal charge under federal law, or a provincial charge under Alberta’s traffic legislation. We prepare every file like it is going to trial. 

Drug Charges Defence

Drug charges are serious, but a well-prepared defence can protect your future. We challenge improper searches, test the evidence, and fight to ensure your rights are upheld at every stage of the case.

DUI and Impaired Driving Defence

DUI charges demand precise legal strategy. We examine traffic stop procedures, breath tests, and timelines to protect your license, freedom, and future from serious criminal consequences.

Murder

Murder charges carry the most serious consequences, but a strong defence can make all the difference. We examine every detail of the case, challenge weak evidence, and ensure your rights are fully protected throughout the process.

Organized Crime

Organized crime charges come with heavy scrutiny and complex evidence. We fight hard to challenge surveillance, association claims, and any overreach in investigations or prosecution tactics.

Physical Assault

Assault is considered a serious offence with heavy penalties, including a criminal record, or occasionally, a jail sentence. This can affect you, your family, and your financial future.

Regulatory Discipline Defence

Facing professional discipline can be career-defining. We help defend licenses, reputations, and livelihoods with focused strategies that ensure due process and professional fairness throughout.

Search and Seizure Defence

Illegally obtained evidence can be excluded with the right defence. We focus on your rights and challenge searches that violate legal standards or lack proper justification by law.

Sexual Offences and Misconduct

Sexual offence allegations require a strategic and sensitive approach. We provide thorough, discreet defence focused on protecting your reputation and ensuring fairness throughout the legal process.

Weapons and Firearms Charges

Weapons charges can carry harsh penalties. We provide skilled defence, challenging the legality of searches, possession claims, and the procedures used to lay these serious criminal charges.
