Practice Area

When you need a criminal defence lawyer, it pays to have a specialist who knows the area of law inside and out and knows all the players involved: the courts, the judges, and the Crown attorneys.

Engel practises nothing but criminal defence law, and he is equally skilled at plea bargaining and court trials. If a plea bargain is your best course of action, his well established reputation means that he can negotiate the best possible deal for you, because Crown attorneys know that he's not afraid to take things to court if necessary.

Similarly, judges know that he won't waste the court's time, so they're predisposed to pay attention to what he says.

"I do what is right in each and every case," Engel stresses. "First and foremost is the client's interest."
