WHAT'S AT STAKE

A criminal charge reaches further than the courtroom

Most people focus on the court date. The damage often starts sooner, and lasts longer.

HOMEJOBTRAVELRECORDTHE CHARGE
  1. Your home and familyRelease conditions can keep you out of your own home or away from family.We work to have conditions varied.
  2. Your job and licenceEmployers and regulators often ask about charges, not just convictions.We tell you what to disclose, and when.
  3. Your travel and statusA conviction can affect U.S. entry and immigration status.We assess this before any resolution.
  4. Your recordA withdrawal, peace bond or discharge (a finding of guilt with no conviction entered) is not a conviction.We explain which options may apply to you.

The earlier a lawyer is involved, the more can be protected. (647) 223-1980

Our office is in Mississauga. Office visits are by appointment only.

Discuss a particular charge in Punjabi

Choose the guide for the actual allegation. Each explains charge-specific questions, evidence to preserve and ways to prepare for a Punjabi consultation. General criminal representation, bail advice and court interpretation remain separate questions to discuss.

The charge-specific guides explain issues to discuss in an assault matter, impaired-driving or refusal case or theft allegation. For a detention or release concern, read the bail hearings guide. Counsel can explain how the relevant issues apply to your case in Punjabi.

Bail and release conditions you need to understand

Bring the undertaking, release order or other release document and identify any term you do not understand. Conditions may restrict contact, travel or attendance at a particular address. A Punjabi explanation can help you understand the written terms, but it does not change them. Follow the existing conditions while your lawyer reviews any bail issue or the proper process for asking for a change. Another person’s permission does not replace that process.

From your first call to your first court date

  1. Today

    Call or send your details.

    Day or night. Tell us what happened and when your court date is. If you are at a police station, ask to speak with your lawyer and give them our number.

  2. Within days

    Get a clear plan in your free consultation.

    We review your charge, release conditions and next steps. For private clients, you get a flat fee in writing. If you have a Legal Aid certificate, we confirm what it covers.

  3. From there

    We take it from there.

    We request disclosure from the Crown, appear for you at court, and keep you updated in the language you prefer, start to finish.

Criminal representation: evidence, options and next steps

The written charge identifies the allegation; it does not establish what happened. During a private discussion with counsel, you can explain your account in Punjabi without first translating the offence name. If retained, counsel can review disclosure, assess witness accounts and other available evidence, identify legal issues and explain the options. The agreed representation may include discussions with the Crown, advice about a proposed resolution or preparation for trial. Decisions depend on the evidence and your instructions; no particular outcome can be promised.

Punjabi consultations and court interpretation

Dildeep Sahi provides consultations in Punjabi, English and Hindi. Tell the firm which language you prefer when arranging the appointment. Speaking Punjabi with your lawyer does not make Punjabi the language of the court proceeding or book a court interpreter.

For an Ontario Court of Justice criminal appearance, you can request an interpreter through the courthouse before your court date. You can also tell the judge or justice of the peace at the appearance. That court provides interpreters without charge. Check the interpreter arrangements separately from your Punjabi consultation. Documents or evidence in another language may require a separate translation; confirm what is needed before paying for one.

Preparing for representation from our Mississauga office

Office visits are by appointment. When booking, identify the next court date, the court named on your paperwork and your preferred consultation language. The assigned court’s directions control attendance; the office address does not determine the hearing location. Keep original messages, records and any disclosure available for an agreed review. If someone helped you contact the firm, discuss whether you want to speak privately before involving them in instructions or sharing sensitive material.

BEFORE YOU CALL

Preparing for the first conversation

Your papers (an appearance notice, summons, undertaking or release order) hold most of what we need. Look for these three things.

  1. The charge and the section number, exactly as written.

  2. Your next court date, time and courthouse.

  3. Any conditions, such as no contact or where you must live.

ALSO HELPFUL

Charge documents

Keep the original charge and release documents, and any disclosure already received.

Punjabi questions

Mark conditions or passages you want explained in Punjabi; preserve original records without editing them.

Court details

State the next appearance date, assigned court and preferred contact method.

Keep the initial website enquiry brief. Do not upload or send sensitive documents through the form; arrange any document review directly with the firm.

You do not need every item before getting in touch. Mention any approaching court or response date.

Common questions

Do I need to write my account in English before calling?

No English narrative is needed to request a Punjabi consultation. Keep the first enquiry brief and arrange any detailed account or document review directly with the firm.

Does a Punjabi consultation include court interpretation?

No. The language you use with your lawyer is separate from arranging a court interpreter. Raise the need early so the right court process can be followed.

How do I arrange representation after a Punjabi consultation?

Ask Dildeep what work your next stage needs and how advice and instructions will be discussed in Punjabi. Ask about the proposed fees or certificate coverage too. The firm must check for conflicts, make sure it is available and agree to act. The scope of work and retainer terms must be confirmed before work begins. A consultation alone does not confirm representation.

Can I use a Legal Aid Ontario certificate for criminal representation?

Aftermath Law accepts Legal Aid Ontario certificates for criminal law matters, subject to the certificate and conflict checks. The firm must also agree to act. Contact the firm to discuss whether it can assist with your matter. You may request a free consultation before receiving a certificate.
