Facing criminal charges does not automatically mean you cannot leave Canada.

However, an undertaking, release order, passport condition, geographic restriction, reporting requirement, court date, or outstanding warrant may affect your ability to travel.Before booking an international trip, review your release conditions and court obligations and determine whether any condition must be legally changed. Entry into another country is a separate issue governed by that country’s border and immigration rules.

If you are considering international travel while facing criminal charges, obtain legal advice as early as possible.

This video explains how police observations, roadside testing, Drug Recognition Expert evaluations, toxicology evidence, video, prescription records, and other evidence may become relevant.If prescription medication is involved in your impaired driving case, obtain legal advice as early as possible.

⁣What happens when a witness gives one account to police and later changes, retracts, or contradicts part of their story?

⁣A changed statement does not automatically end a criminal case. Defence counsel may compare earlier and later statements with text messages, recordings, video, police notes, and other evidence to assess credibility, reliability, and the effect on the Crown’s case.

⁣If a witness has changed their story in your criminal case, obtain legal advice as early as possible.

⁣Cross-examination is one of the most
powerful tools in a criminal trial—but it’s often misunderstood.

In this video, we explain how
Calgary defence lawyers use cross-examination to test witness credibility,
expose inconsistencies, challenge memory, and highlight what witnesses didn’t
actually see. The goal isn’t to argue—it’s to create reasonable doubt.

If your case is going to trial,
preparation and strategy matter.

Police need a valid search warrant before entering your home, vehicle, or searching your phone. But not every search warrant meets legal standards.
In this video, we explain how Calgary defence lawyers challenge improper search warrants, including weak tips, missing information, wrong addresses, and searches that go beyond what the warrant allows. If a warrant is flawed, evidence may be challenged or excluded under Charter rights.
If police searched you or your property, don’t assume it was lawful.

If you’re facing an assault charge in Calgary, you may hear the court talk about probation or a conditional sentence. While they sound similar, they have very different consequences for your freedom, daily life, and risk of jail if conditions are breached.
In this video, we explain the key differences between probation and a conditional sentence, why one is more restrictive than the other, and how sentencing decisions are made in Alberta assault cases.
If you’re unsure what outcome is best for your situation, speaking with a criminal defence lawyer early can make a real difference.
