Fedorowicz Criminal Law is committed to protecting your future and fighting for justice. Every case is handled with precision, confidentiality, and a strong defence strategy.
Richard Fedorowicz is an experienced defence attorney who ensures each client receives personalized advocacy. His track record includes charge withdrawal, case dismissal, and not guilty verdicts across a wide range of criminal charges.
Fedorowicz Criminal Law provides full legal representation for all criminal matters. From assault charges and drug offences to impaired driving cases and fraud and financial crimes, clients receive tailored strategies that address the complexity of their situations. The firm also handles firearms charges, sexual offences, and appeals, ensuring no stage of the criminal trial process is left unchallenged.
Assault charges carry serious penalties including jail time, probation, and a lasting criminal record. Fedorowicz Criminal Law defends clients accused of common assault, aggravated assault, domestic violence, and other violent offences. Defence approaches may include challenging witness credibility, exposing inconsistencies in disclosure of evidence, and arguing reasonable doubt at trial.
Drug offences can involve possession, trafficking, production, or importation. These charges often carry severe consequences under Canadian law. Richard Fedorowicz reviews every detail of police conduct, including possible violations of Section 8 of the Charter (unreasonable search and seizure). Defence strategies may include suppression of unlawfully obtained evidence and arguments based on Charter rights.
Impaired driving cases in Ontario can lead to licence suspension, fines, criminal records, and imprisonment. As a DUI lawyer, Richard Fedorowicz challenges the legality of traffic stops, breath tests, and police procedures. Cases often involve arguments under Section 9 of the Charter (arbitrary detention) and Section 10(b) of the Charter (right to counsel). Strategic defences may result in reduced penalties or full acquittals.
Sexual offence allegations require a strong and sensitive legal defence. As a sexual assault lawyer, Richard Fedorowicz defends clients against charges including sexual assault, exploitation, and related offences. Cases often involve complex bail hearing issues and require protection of the right to remain silent. Defence strategies include cross-examination of complainants, analysis of forensic evidence, and Charter-based motions to protect client rights.
Fraud and financial crimes can include identity theft, wire fraud, embezzlement, and misappropriation. These charges may result in lengthy prison sentences and permanent damage to professional reputation. Defence strategies may involve challenging intent, questioning documentary evidence, and negotiating charge reductions where appropriate.
Canadian firearms charges are governed under the Criminal Code and the Canadian Firearms Act. Offences can involve unlawful possession, trafficking, or failure to comply with licensing regulations. Some convictions carry mandatory minimum sentences. Fedorowicz Criminal Law defends clients against firearms charges by scrutinizing police procedures, raising Charter challenges, and building a strong defence strategy in court.
Understanding the criminal trial process is essential for anyone facing charges in Brantford. Fedorowicz Criminal Law guides clients from the moment of arrest through trial, sentencing, and potential appeals. Each stage demands careful preparation, strategic pre-trial motions, and a full review of disclosure of evidence.
When an arrest occurs, the accused has immediate rights, including the right to remain silent and the right to counsel. A bail hearing is often the first step in securing release. Richard Fedorowicz works to obtain favourable bail conditions, emphasizing the presumption of innocence and advocating against unnecessary detention.
The Crown must provide disclosure of evidence to the defence. This stage allows Fedorowicz Criminal Law to review police notes, witness statements, and forensic reports. Careful analysis may reveal Charter violations or weaknesses that can be challenged before trial.
Pre-trial motions are critical in excluding evidence or limiting Crown arguments. Motions may involve Section 8 of the Charter (unreasonable search and seizure), Section 9 of the Charter (arbitrary detention), and Section 10(b) of the Charter (right to counsel). Richard Fedorowicz regularly files Charter applications that can lead to charge withdrawal or evidence being suppressed.
During trial, the defence challenges Crown evidence, cross-examines witnesses, and raises reasonable doubt. If a conviction occurs, sentencing advocacy seeks to minimize penalties. As an experienced appeal lawyer, Richard Fedorowicz also represents clients in higher courts, arguing errors of law or violations of Section 11(b) of the Charter (trial within a reasonable time).
