Criminal Litigation
Helps Law Corporation can act in every stage of a criminal hearing from first appearance to trial and at any level of court from Provincial to the Court of Appeal. When you are first charged with a criminal offence, Crown Counsel will give you documents laying out the case against you. We are experts in going through this documentation with you and showing you where your defences are. We allow you to make your own decisions about your case after we’ve explained all your options to you. You are always in control of your case. Whether you decide to go to trial or plead guilty, we will be with you every step of the way. Our lawyers are experienced criminal counsel who will fight for an acquittal using their superior knowledge of the law, written arguments, excellent cross-examination, and advanced trial technique. Representation always assists in getting the most beneficial sentence to you and to the community if you decide to plead guilty. Helps Law Corporation specializes in Impaired Driving, White Collar Crime & Fraud, Tax charges, Assault, Sexual Assault and Drug Defence cases, but has experience with all types of criminal charges. Our counsel have worked numerous Murder, Manslaughter, Kidnapping and other high-profile criminal defence cases. We never work for Crown Counsel; we have proudly been a defence-only firm since our inception.
Motor Vehicle Litigation
With the advent of new legislation aimed at impaired drivers, the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles has the power, on their own initiative, to suspend your licence either with or without pending criminal charges. These Administrative Driving Prohibitions have the ability to seriously impact your life, especially if you need to operate a motor vehicle to do your job. Counsel at Helps Law Corporation are all trained in the new legislation. We can represent you either in writing or orally at dispute hearings for these prohibitions. We can make submissions to the Superintendent on your behalf and we know the ins and outs of the ways that the Superintendent decides the suspensions. If you have received a Notice of Suspension or Prohibition, you should know that there is a very limited period of time – usually 21 days from the day you signed for the Notice – to dispute the Prohibition. CALL US IMMEDIATELY for an appointment.
Tax Litigation
Helps Law Corporation is experienced counsel for Tax Litigation. Whether you’re requesting a review of your Notice of Assessment, disputing a Notice of Assessment or Re-Assessment at the Tax Court of Canada or appealing a judgment of the Tax Court at the Federal Court of Appeal. Often, Tax Litigation goes hand in hand with Criminal Charges relating to failing to file a return or failure to provide the proper information. Helps Law Offices is proud to offer both services in one office, a rare service in Vancouver.
