Strategic Defence Against Specialized Drug Crime Prosecutors

Drug charges in Canada vary — both in their nature and penalties. Predicting the outcome of a case can be challenging. Each one is fact-specific. Gaining a successful result requires close attention to fine details and meticulous case preparation.
