Practice Areas We Defend
If you are searching for a criminal defence lawyer in Pickering, Weisberg Law provides focused advocacy across serious criminal charges. Each matter begins with detailed analysis, evidence control, and a structured defence plan.
Assault & Domestic Assault
Charges range from simple assault to aggravated assault and uttering threats. Defence preparation examines credibility, identification, and potential self-defence issues. Careful analysis can reveal weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.
Sexual Assault & Related Offences
Sexual offence allegations require disciplined litigation strategy and extensive disclosure review. Digital records, timelines, and communications are examined carefully while preparing targeted cross-examination.
Impaired Driving (DUI)
Breath demand timing, instrument records, grounds for arrest, and Charter compliance are closely analyzed. Procedural errors or unlawful steps may justify evidentiary challenges.
Drug Offences – Possession, Trafficking, Production
Search warrants and investigative grounds receive careful scrutiny. Defence strategy may focus on unlawful searches, disclosure gaps, or weaknesses in the chain of evidence.
Homicide – Murder & Manslaughter
These complex cases require experienced trial preparation and disciplined strategy. Weisberg Law manages intricate evidentiary issues, expert evidence, and the realities of jury trials.
Firearm & Weapons Offences
Knowledge, possession, and control frequently become central issues. The legality of searches, stops, and warrants is examined closely given the significant sentencing exposure involved.
Fraud & White Collar Crime
Financial allegations require organized document review and careful analysis of intent and communications. Defence preparation may involve detailed record analysis and expert consultation.
Conspiracy & Criminal Organization
Wiretaps, surveillance operations, and informant evidence require rigorous disclosure litigation. Charter rights and investigative shortcuts are challenged directly.
Criminal Harassment & Uttering Threats
Context and credibility often determine the strength of these cases. Communication history and the surrounding circumstances are examined carefully to develop a credible defence strategy.
Criminal Appeals
If a conviction or sentence is unsafe, appellate review may offer remedies. Weisberg Law evaluates potential appeal grounds and advances focused legal arguments before appellate courts.

How We Build Your Defence
Every case is prepared with the expectation it could proceed to court. That disciplined preparation strengthens negotiations and ensures readiness if trial becomes necessary.
Early Intake and Risk Control
The defence process begins with mapping the facts, identifying legal risks, and preserving key evidence such as messages, device data, location information, and third-party records. Immediate concerns involving bail, employment, or travel are addressed with a structured plan.
Disclosure and Investigation
Full disclosure is demanded from the prosecution, including police notes, video evidence, digital extractions, forensic reports, and warrant materials. Any gaps or inconsistencies are pursued carefully. Independent experts may be consulted where technical evidence is involved.
Charter Applications
Unlawful detentions, searches, or statements may justify Charter litigation. Focused applications may lead to the exclusion of evidence or, in certain circumstances, a stay of proceedings.
Negotiation and Judicial Pre-Trials
With a trial-ready brief, Weisberg Law presses for withdrawals, diversion opportunities, or meaningful reductions in charges. If trial becomes necessary, preparation continues to strengthen the defence position.
Trial Preparation
A clear defence theory guides the strategy. Evidence planning, witness preparation, and targeted motions are developed with disciplined courtroom advocacy in mind.

Evidence, Experts & Digital Realities

- Digital evidence analysis involving device extractions, cloud records, and metadata
- Forensic disciplines such as DNA, fingerprints, ballistics, and toxicology
- Identification reliability and eyewitness memory analysis
- Search and seizure litigation involving warrant validity and informer privilege
Appeals & Post-Conviction Options
Even after sentencing, legal remedies may remain available.
Appeal work requires detailed record review, precise legal writing, and focused oral advocacy. Weisberg Law assesses viable appeal grounds, obtains transcripts and exhibits, and advances targeted arguments before appellate courts.
