You need a firm which is prepared to cover all bases no matter what the challenges or obstacles. We're committed to bringing value by offering creative, timely and strategic advice to help solve complex legal issues and bring you some peace of mind.

We routinely collaborate with clients to develop litigation strategies using early case assessment methods and then implement the plan with efficiency and the latest technology. Our goal is to produce not only favorable results for our clients at trial or on appeal, but also advantageous settlements when their interests are best served by resolution short of the courthouse.

A company facing litigation, whether as a plaintiff or a defendant, must consider a number of cost, benefit and risk factors that are likely to impact the bottom line. Issues such as: potential monetary recovery or exposure, level of litigation expenses, possible court decisions or orders that could have significant impact on business and individual interests can impact company reputation and brand equity—all of which can be challenging to predict. Betty’s Law Office helps our clients minimize the uncertainties by providing a solid foundation of practical experience, broad resources and strategic vision.

A criminal charge is one of the greatest challenges many people will ever have to face. No matter how small or large the charge the possibility of a criminal record or facing time in jail is a heavy burden. It is critical that you have a lawyer who understands the justice system completely.

As a former Crown Attorney with the Department of Justice we ensure that the system works for you, not against you.

If you are facing a criminal charge or think you may be charged contact us.
