Directory of Criminal Defence Lawyers

Search for criminal defence lawyers across Canada by city, province, or name. Listings are drawn from public records; a lawyer can claim their profile to confirm control of the information it shows.

How listings work
Unclaimed
The listing is built from public records. No one has confirmed control of it, so it may be incomplete or out of date. Direct contact details are not shown.
Verified
The lawyer, or an authorized representative, has claimed the profile and confirmed control of it. Verified does not mean Criminal Code Help has checked the lawyer’s licensing, standing, qualifications, or quality of service — we do not perform those checks.

Criminal Code Help does not recommend, rank, or endorse lawyers, and does not receive referral fees for any listing. Always confirm a lawyer’s current standing with the law society of your province before retaining legal services.

Before hiring a lawyer

Review the lawyer’s background, confirm they practise criminal defence, and verify their current standing with the law society of your province. Directory information is provided to help you begin your search; it should not replace your own independent research.

Directory disclaimer: Criminal Code Help does not verify the credentials, standing, or quality of any lawyer listed in this directory. A “Verified” badge means only that the lawyer, or an authorized representative, has confirmed control of the profile — it is not a check of licensing, standing, or quality. Unclaimed profiles are sourced from public records and may be inaccurate or out of date. Criminal Code Help does not endorse, recommend, or receive referral fees for any lawyer listed. Always verify a lawyer’s standing with the law society of your province before retaining legal services.
