Jake Shen represents clients facing criminal charges in Oshawa and Durham Region. His defence work begins with a careful review of the police investigation, the evidence collected and the legal issues that may affect the case.
When a person faces criminal charges, a criminal defence lawyer looks beyond the charge itself. The lawyer carefully examines the police investigation and reviews the evidence gathered in the case to understand the allegations against the client. This may include witness statements, photographs, DNA, fingerprints, wiretap evidence, and other investigative materials.
A thorough review of the investigation may reveal weaknesses, inconsistencies, mistakes, or potential illegalities in the way the case was handled. Identifying these issues can help a criminal defence lawyer challenge the prosecution’s case and develop a strong defence for a client facing criminal charges in Oshawa.
