He has extensive experience from conducting countless Provincial Court trials and bail hearings.

Brad is a member of Legal Aid Ontario's Extremely Serious Matters Panel. This allows him to take on the most serious cases where a client qualifies for assistance through Legal Aid Ontario. He is also a member of the Gladue Panel, allowing him to represent Aboriginal, First Nations, and Métis clients.

Although Brad's office is located in the GTA, he has attended courts from London to Pembrook to Orillia. Brad is willing to travel to defend a client.

When you retain Brad, you are retaining him personally. You will never have your case delegated to a student or an associate. Brad will personally handle all aspects of your case.
