Practice areas
Criminal charges, trials and sentencing
Sean Biesbroek regularly handles matters brought under the Criminal Code. Pre-trial negotiation is treated as an important early step in fighting for the client. If a case goes to trial, the commitment is to advocate for the client, making sure the process is fair and that the client's rights, the presumption of innocence among them, are upheld under the law. After a finding of guilt, the practice commits to exploring every available option for a reduced sentence. Anyone facing criminal charges is encouraged to book a consultation before making decisions that could change their life.
Bail hearings and record suspensions
Bail work runs from first bail hearings to bail reviews and bail pending appeal, and the aim is to do everything possible to get the client released. The practice also gives advice and help with the record suspension process. An application for a suspension is available only in some cases, and a criminal record can weigh heavily on job applications, travel, immigration and family law decisions.
Quasi-criminal charges
Quasi-criminal cases usually begin with a charge for a regulatory, bylaw or traffic offence. The penalties can be significant and the system that hears these charges can be hard to find your way through, so Sean Biesbroek offers to act as a guide and work toward meaningful solutions.
Administrative tribunals
Administrative litigation covers rights that tribunals enforce, such as regulatory matters, landlord and tenant rights and benefits disputes.
