Areas of Practice

Murder & Manslaughter

Murder and manslaughter charges are among the most severe crimes that a person can be accused of. Our experienced attorneys have defended clients against homicide charges at all levels of court. Have you or someone you know been accused of homicide? Contact us immediately.

Impaired Driving

Impaired driving laws in Canada are strict. Marijuana, alcohol, and other impaired driving-related offences can lead to serious fines, criminal records, and even jail time. If you’ve been charged with an impaired driving-related offence, call our lawyers immediately. Our legal strategies will help you get through the charges.

Domestic Violence

Law enforcement agencies in Manitoba have a “zero-tolerance” policy in effect for all domestic violence. This means if a domestic violence allegation is made with reasonable grounds, the police must charge the alleged perpetrator with domestic violence. A good defence lawyer can help you through the difficult work of defending yourself against these serious charges.

Drug Trafficking / Possession

Criminal records for drug possession or trafficking are all too common in Canada. Even with the legalization of marijuana, you may still be charged with possession or trafficking if you possess more marijuana than the legal limit. Don’t let a drug-related charge ruin your future—call us as soon as possible to arrange a defence!

Sexual Assault

Sexual assault is one of the broadest categories of criminal offence—and one of the most harshly penalized. Our defence attorneys will use very different strategies depending on the type of sexual assault you’ve been charged with. Time is of the essence with these charges—call us as soon as possible so we can get to work on your defence.

Assaults and Violent Offences

Assaults and violent offences range from uttering threats to aggravated assault, in which a person is wounded. A good criminal defence lawyer will take different approaches to different kinds of assault and violent offences—these are broad categories. If you’ve been charged with a violent offence, call us immediately.

Firearm Offences

The laws governing firearms in Canada are complex. There is a wide range of actions that can lead to a person being charged with firearm offences, from improperly carrying and storing your firearm to unsafely discharging a firearm. If you’ve been charged with a firearm-related offence, get in touch with our lawyers today.

Theft and Property Offences

Theft-related charges are generally separated into two categories: Theft under $5000 and theft over $5000. While theft over $5000 carries more serious charges, both types of theft can lead to life-altering consequences. Property offences are wide-ranging. Our lawyers can help you defend yourself against theft and property-related offences.

Fraud / White Collar Crime

Fraud and white-collar crimes are among the most complex cases to prosecute—and to defend against. Our defence attorneys will help you defend yourself against accusations of fraud or other white-collar crimes. These types of charges can be extremely serious—call us today.

Youth Offences

Our youth deserve a strong defense against criminal charges—charges early in life can cause irreparable harm to a child’s future. If you or a child or teen in your care are facing charges, get in touch with a criminal defence lawyer right away.

Appeals

At Brodsky Amy & Gould, perseverance is part of our ideology. That’s why we have plenty of success in appellate courts. We know that the law is forged at the Appeal stage—and when you need to appeal a decision made by one of the lower courts, our criminal lawyers will be right there with you, supporting your case.

Driving Offences

There are a number of different criminal driving offences—but the most common are DUIs. Marijuana, alcohol, and other drugs can lead to impaired driving-related charges. You can also be charged with careless or dangerous driving. Driving offences are quite complicated—but our lawyers have the experience you need to build a solid defence.
