When facing criminal charges, your future is at stake. As your criminal defence lawyer in Scarborough, Richard Fedorowicz delivers personalized advocacy focused on results. He fights for justice through Charter-based legal challenges and precise trial strategies. With a long-standing reputation for professionalism and integrity, his goal is to secure charge withdrawal, case reductions, or full acquittals while guiding you through every legal decision.
Fedorowicz Law defends clients against a full range of criminal charges. From violent crimes and drug offences to complex fraud and financial crimes, the firm has extensive experience with both indictable offences and summary offences. Each case receives a tailored defence plan built on a foundation of thorough evidence review, Charter applications, and effective legal motions. The firm also advises on long-term impacts like maintaining a clean criminal record.
Fedorowicz Law represents clients accused of assault charges, including domestic assault, aggravated assault, and assault with a weapon. Convictions may lead to jail time, criminal records, and loss of employment. Defence strategies involve challenging the credibility of witness statements, asserting self-defence, and using pre-trial motions to exclude unlawful evidence under Section 8 of the Charter (unreasonable search and seizure).
Richard Fedorowicz defends clients facing drug offences ranging from possession and trafficking to production. Cases often involve illegal searches or detentions that may violate Section 9 of the Charter (arbitrary detention). The firm uses its deep understanding of drug laws and evidence rules to suppress unlawfully obtained material and dismantle the prosecution’s case.
Ontario’s impaired driving laws carry severe penalties including license suspension, fines, and possible jail time. As an experienced DUI lawyer, Fedorowicz challenges the legality of traffic stops, use of roadside screening devices, and procedural errors. He ensures that your right to remain silent and Section 10(b) of the Charter (right to counsel) are upheld from the moment of arrest.
Sexual offence charges require sensitive and thorough legal handling. As a sexual assault lawyer, Fedorowicz addresses bail concerns, publication bans, and Charter rights violations. The firm protects client dignity while constructing a defence that questions inconsistencies, examines motive, and explores possibilities for early charge withdrawal or reduced sentencing.
Whether you’re accused of identity theft, embezzlement, or credit card fraud, these charges can have lasting financial and reputational consequences. Fedorowicz Law breaks down complex financial data, consults forensic experts, and challenges disclosure gaps. Many cases have led to case dismissal due to insufficient evidence or procedural errors.
Criminal allegations involving firearms require immediate legal intervention. These include unlawful possession, careless storage, and unauthorized use. Fedorowicz defends clients charged under the Canadian Firearms Act, often targeting unlawful searches under Section 8 of the Charter, and working to suppress evidence. These cases can carry mandatory minimums, making skilled representation crucial.
Understanding how your case progresses through the justice system is essential. Fedorowicz Law provides strategic guidance from arrest to appeal. Every step involves decisions that can affect the outcome and must be managed with precision and experience.
Upon arrest, the accused has the right to remain silent and request counsel under Section 10(b). Fedorowicz supports clients during bail hearings, aiming to secure release with minimal conditions. Bail is often the first step toward preparing a strong defence, as pre-trial liberty enables better case planning.
The prosecution must provide full disclosure of evidence, including police notes, witness statements, and forensic reports. Fedorowicz meticulously reviews every detail to identify inconsistencies, Charter breaches, and opportunities for pre-trial motions. Incomplete or delayed disclosure may lead to adjournments or Section 11(b) of the Charter (trial within a reasonable time) applications.
Pre-trial motions allow the defence to challenge improperly obtained evidence, raise procedural concerns, or apply to exclude certain witness testimonies. Fedorowicz routinely files motions based on Charter violations, including unlawful detention, denial of counsel, or breach of privacy. Successful motions can result in critical evidence being excluded or entire charges withdrawn.
At trial, Fedorowicz ensures every element of the charge is tested. His focus includes raising reasonable doubt, cross-examining key witnesses, and using expert testimony when needed. If convicted, he advocates for reduced sentencing and prepares strong appeals grounded in legal error or misapplication of the law. As an appeal lawyer, he has achieved sentence reductions and overturned convictions on technical and procedural grounds.
