I HAVE SPENT MORE THAN A DECADE DEFENDING PEOPLE CHARGED WITH A VARIETY OF CRIMINAL OFFENCES. EVERY CASE GETS THE SAME LEVEL OF ATTENTION AND EVERY CLIENT IS TREATED WITH THE RESPECT THEY DESERVE.
JHG Criminal Law focuses on complex cases involving the commercial drug trade, illegal firearm use and possession, and crimes of violence. From Bail Hearing to Charter Application to Jury Trial, the goal is to ensure that you don’t get stuck in the trap of the Criminal Justice System.
It is a trap, designed to keep people stuck in place by detention orders and plea deals that guarantee a criminal record. I pride myself on never taking the easy way out. If there is a defence to advance, then it is pursued. And while it is impossible to predict a result, I always promise a fight.

Possession of Cocaine for the Purpose of Trafficking
R. v. M.A. | 2026 | LONDON
Client has been a target of London Police Service for many years and instead of properly investigating him, they acted on hunches and suspicion and after him for possession for the purpose of trafficking cocaine. After a 4 day trial, the judge agreed that police had violated his right to be free from unreasonable arrest and was therefore subjected to an unlawful search. The conduct was serious enough to warrant the exclusion of 3 kilograms of cocaine found in a hidden compartment of the car he was driving.
