Cases in 2021

• R. v. R.D.2021

  The client was charged with one count of possession of child pornography and one count of accessing child pornography.

I was able to work with the client to help him to help me negotiate with the crown. I was able to have all of the  charges dropped (no conviction and no criminal record).
