Throughout the criminal process, from searches to sentencing, you have specific rights. According to section 10 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, every citizen has certain rights upon arrest. The police must inform you of the reason for your arrest, advise you of your right to a lawyer, and allow you the opportunity to contact a lawyer of your choice.
Facing criminal charges requires the support of strong and knowledgeable advocates who will protect you against prosecution. The Luminary criminal law team is well-versed in your rights and will vigorously defend them at every stage of your criminal proceeding.
