Criminal Law


Choosing the right lawyer is one of the most important decisions you'll make in your Criminal Law matter. 

Criminal Law is an area of law that involves complex legal principles, which take time and experience to learn. However, nothing can compensate for actual criminal trial experience.

Since 1983, Gregory Lazin has successfully defended serious criminal cases, including:

  • Homicide

  • Criminal Organization

  • Conspiracy

  • Firearm and Weapons Offences

  • Possessing Proceeds of Crime

  • Money Laundering

  • Sexual Assault

  • Historical Sexual Assault

Please see the Drug Law section of our website for information on our representation of Drug Law matters.

Serious matters frequently result in applications to the courts for remedies under the Charter of Rights, involving issues of unreasonable search and seizure, arbitrary arrest and detention, the right to counsel, and the exclusion of evidence.

Mr. Lazin has conducted in excess of 1,750 trials, hearings, and contested Charter applications.

If you are facing a serious Criminal Law matter, you should look for an experienced Criminal Law lawyer who has knowledge of the particular issues involved in your case.

Because of the very personal nature of a Criminal Law matter, not every Criminal Law lawyer will be a “good fit.” To enable you to make an informed decision, we offer a free ½ hour initial consultation in our offices.

We accept Legal Aid (Alberta) and Legal Services (B.C.) referrals.
