In the very first criminal file of my career, I met the Calgary Police Service head-on as the case involved a violation of my client’s Charter rights. The police eventually abandoned the criminal investigation against my client, who was then served a provincial sanction (IRS). Later, I also won his IRS, which was a happy ending.

Once retained, I will tread the path of your criminal case with you and will be consistent, persistent, and resistant in my approach. I will work hard to resolve your file. When the resolution is not in your best interests, I will be ready to fight the good fight in court so your rights are protected.

As an Immediate Roadside Sanctions lawyer, I have extensively represented Albertans and helped them navigate the IRS process. I was able to win some lost battles. These were the cases where the clients did not have slam-dunk grounds to cancel their Notice of Administrative Penalties. Despite the bleak prospects, they trusted me, and we managed to lighten the otherwise seeming dark path. We were able to win on unique grounds and set a precedence. Despite the various legal constraints in the administrative adjudication process, the integrity of the law and Charter rights must be maintained. I strive to fight for that in every case.

As a Canadian of Indian descent, I possess an inherent sensitivity towards one’s struggles in a new country and the added stress that criminal charges may bring to one’s life. I often tell my clients, let me take the stress for you so you can continue to focus on your lives.

My relatively long life experience precedes my legal journey. As a former journalist, dealing with people and their problems comes naturally to me. I have seen the complexity of life in proximity; hence, my approach to simplify the complex.

As your criminal defence lawyer, it would be my utmost duty to protect your rights throughout the criminal process.
