★★★★★ Sounds corny but it was an oversight, I explained it to the security but it didn’t matter. I couldn’t afford for this minor incident to affect my employment which requires me to travel the USA. Nick was able to have his office appear in court for me, and have the theft under charges dropped completely.  This saved my time, a bit of personal embarrassment and my job.  Well worth his fee, and would recommend to others.

★★★★★ My daughter did something stupid, and was sorry for what she did but still had to appear in court for shoplifting. The lawyer who represented us was very compassionate and understood that this was an error by an otherwise upstanding person.  We came to court with the lawyer, letters from school and her part time job. The lawyer convinced the Crown Attorney to drop everything clearing her of the theft under charges and a criminal record. This was a happy day in our home and we have the lawyer to thank.  We highly recommend these people.

★★★★★ Highly recommend the firm and truly appreciate their hard work, this firm are the best at what they do, they have withdrawn my both charges of Drive over 80 and Impaired Driving. They are a bit pricey but however that’s what it needs for professionals to resolve your matters and they had the courtesy to have me pay it over a period of time so definitely worth it regardless. I recommend them to anyone with any kind of criminal cases specially what I went through as results was awesome. highly recommend 100% no doubt. I’m super happy with their work and results.

★★★★★ I want to thank Mr. Mustafa for helping me with my issue at the Ottawa court.  Things weren’t going well with the crown.  I ended up calling, Mustafa was supportive and told me he could handle my case and speak to the crown attorney.  The next court date my the theft under charge was withdrawn and I paid a $200 fine, no criminal record. !

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results and litigation outcomes will vary according to the facts in individual theft under cases.
