The firm places a strong emphasis on defending cases in the following areas:


Assault and Sexual Assault


Assault and sexual assault charges carry profound consequences for the accused, including possible prison time, a permanent criminal record, being required to register in an offender’s database and lasting social stigma that can prohibit future employment and more. Whether your assault charges carry the possibility of a summary or indictable conviction, Mr. Vayeghan will approach your case with the utmost professionalism and methodically evaluate each detail to build the strongest defence case. From the circumstances behind your arrest to finding inconsistencies in the prosecution’s evidence, Mr. Vayeghan’s unwavering eye for detail often uncovers valuable information that may lead to reduced charges, case dismissals or acquittals where possible. Mr. Vayeghan understands that being accused of crimes of a violent or sexual nature is often an emotional experience for the defendant and offers a compassionate, proactive, and effective approach to defence that delivers results for his clients. 


Drug Offences

Drug-related offences in Canada hold serious repercussions for those convicted,  carrying harsh penalties that range from hefty fines to years of imprisonment.

Mr. Vayeghan understands the unique complexities involved in drug cases.

He then leverages his negotiation skills to secure plea deals or alternative resolutions that may spare his clients from the long-term impact of a conviction.
