When you have a criminal charge hanging over you, it is important to speak with a lawyer specializing in criminal law right away so your rights are fully protected. Bottos Law Group is an Edmonton-based criminal defence firm that practices exclusively in criminal and regulatory (quasi-criminal) law. Our team has over a half-century of collective experience defending clients facing these types of charges all over Alberta, including the town of Slave Lake.
The law has important protections for people charged with crimes, but without an expert on your side to tell you how to activate these protections, you could be left vulnerable. The lawyers at Bottos Law Group will fight for you to ensure you receive the full benefits of the law and we will uphold your rights at every stage, including:
- Advising you of your rights and obligations if you are under investigation.
- Providing critical advice if you’re arrested.
- Conducting preliminary inquiries to determine whether the prosecutor has enough evidence to make you stand trial.
- Defending your case at trial.
- Appealing your case when the outcome is incorrect or unfair.
Our lawyers have successfully defended clients charged with a wide variety of offences, including:
- Assault (all types)
- Impaired driving (also known as a DUI, or “driving while intoxicated”)
- Drug-related offences, including possession for the purpose of trafficking, and trafficking in narcotics and other controlled substances
- Robbery, vandalism, and all types of theft
- First and second-degree murder, and manslaughter
