About Criminal Lawyer John Piszczek

John S. Piszczek Criminal Defence Lawyer is a solo criminal defence practice based in North Bay that focuses on cases across Northern Ontario. Piszczek articled and became a partner at what the firm's site describes as one of Canada's biggest criminal defence firms in Toronto before moving the practice to North Bay. The firm now handles a full range of criminal charges, including impaired driving and other drinking and driving offences, domestic assault, breaches of court orders, sexual offences, property offences, weapon charges, criminal harassment, and bail hearings.

Piszczek's clients have included doctors, police officers, lawyers, and other professionals, according to the firm's site. The site also states that pleading guilty is one of the poorest options in most cases, and that Piszczek has secured hundreds of acquittals, withdrawals, and stays of criminal charges over the years. Piszczek also keeps a blog of commentary on Northern Ontario criminal law, covering topics such as court procedure changes during the COVID-19 pandemic and notable Charter and sentencing decisions.
