One of our leading criminal lawyers, Miles Herman represented a defendant charged with possessing a firearm.  The case against him rested on forensic/DNA evidence that the Crown sought to show pointed to his possession of the firearm prior to its recovery.

Thanks to detailed and focused representations concerning the strength of DNA evidence and the preparation of full submissions for a contested committal hearing, the Crown offered no evidence on a day prior to committal.

This case was defended skilfully and expertly by Miles who ensured that the prosecution were put on the back foot from a very early stage of proceedings.
This was a fantastic outcome for a client who was looking, on conviction, to receive a minimum term of five years imprisonment.

This is a case where early and detailed consideration of the evidence was both necessary and warranted, and resulted in the outcome secured.
