Criminal Law

Charged with a crime? Protect your rights from the very first step.

A criminal charge can affect your freedom, your career, your family, and your future. At Tim Jones Law Firm, we provide strong, strategic criminal defence to clients across Winnipeg and throughout Manitoba. You’ll get clear guidance, honest advice, and an advocate who takes your side from the first call.


Our Approach

Every criminal matter is different, and so is every client. We start by listening. We review the evidence, explain your options in plain language, and build a defence strategy around the facts of your case. Whether your matter is best resolved through negotiation or needs a full trial, we prepare thoroughly and stand with you at every stage.

 

Criminal Matters We Handle

  • Impaired driving and other driving offences
  • Assault and domestic violence charges
  • Theft, fraud, and property offences
  • Drug possession and trafficking charges
  • Weapons offences
  • Sexual offence allegations
  • Breach of conditions, probation, or release orders
  • Youth criminal justice matters
  • Bail hearings and release applications
  • Record suspensions (pardons) and related applications


How We Can Help

  • Bail and early release: We work quickly to seek your release and negotiate reasonable conditions.
  • Case review and disclosure: We examine the Crown’s evidence carefully, looking for weaknesses, procedural errors, and Charter issues.
  • Protecting your Charter rights: If police or the Crown have overstepped, we act to challenge the evidence and protect your rights.
  • Negotiation: Where appropriate, we work toward reduced charges, alternative measures, or other favourable resolutions.
  • Trial advocacy: If your case proceeds to court, we represent you with focus and preparation in the Provincial Court of Manitoba and the Court of King’s Bench of Manitoba.


If You’ve Been Charged or Arrested

What you do first matters. Remember:

  1. You have the right to speak to a lawyer. Ask for one right away.
  2. You have the right to remain silent. Avoid discussing your case with police without legal advice.
  3. Follow all conditions of any release order or bail terms carefully.
  4. Contact us as soon as possible. Early legal advice can make a real difference.
