Free consultationAbout Drexler Law
Drexler Law is Jordan Drexler's criminal defence practice, and it acts only for people who've been accused of an offence, anywhere in Southwestern Ontario. Jordan Drexler started it in Kitchener-Waterloo in 2018 after moving back to Ontario. Impaired driving and drug charges head its list of focus areas, which also takes in assault and young offender matters, among others.
Jordan Drexler, B.A., J.D., finished an undergraduate degree in Ancient Mediterranean Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University with distinction, then went on to law school at the University of Alberta. There, Jordan Drexler was closely involved with Student Legal Services, a clinic for low-income people facing criminal charges: a volunteer in first year, then hired as a dayleader for the second and third years. Articling came next, at an Alberta criminal defence firm, helping on cases that included murder, manslaughter and robbery.
In 2026 the practice added a second office, in Port Elgin. From its Kitchener base it takes criminal cases in towns such as Guelph, Orangeville, Goderich and Owen Sound, and if you've been charged somewhere that isn't on that list, you're welcome to ask anyway.
Jordan Drexler is currently president of CrimPOWR, the defence bar association for Waterloo Region. If you're facing a criminal or impaired driving charge, you can describe it on the contact form for Jordan Drexler to review, and the firm's commitment is to answer every inquiry as soon as possible.

Impaired driving

Young offenders
Three posts by Jordan Drexler are filed under young offenders: one from October 2018 on when a young person can face an adult sentence, one from November 2018 on whether a youth record is permanent, and one from April 2020 comparing youth and adult bail.

Free consultationHow Drexler Law works
Drexler Law works to a three-part philosophy. The first part is being on your side: once retained, Jordan Drexler commits to staying on your team for the whole case. The second is communication, with clients kept up to date on, and part of, each key step.
The third is preparation. Every case gets readied as though it's headed for trial, and if you'd rather resolve the charge, that same groundwork is meant to let the firm negotiate from a position of strength.
