Fedorowicz Law defends all types of assault charges, including aggravated assault, domestic assault, and assault with a weapon. These charges carry serious consequences, such as imprisonment and a criminal record. Defence strategies often involve disputing intent, self-defence arguments, and challenging witness credibility.
Whether you are charged with possession, trafficking, or production, drug-related charges require a strategic approach.

Every defence attorney effort aims to mitigate penalties or seek case dismissal.
Ontario’s DUI laws impose strict penalties, including licence suspension and criminal conviction.

The first hours after arrest are critical. You have the right to remain silent and the right to counsel, as protected under Section 10(b) of the Charter. Fedorowicz Law ensures you receive a fair bail hearing, seeking your release and fighting against arbitrary detention under Section 9 of the Charter.
Crown disclosure is the backbone of any defence. Fedorowicz Law thoroughly reviews police notes, surveillance, and witness statements. If the Crown delays or fails to provide key materials, we may challenge the prosecution based on Section 11(b) of the Charter (trial within a reasonable time).
