At
Duncan
Investigations,
we pride ourselves on our experience in this area, by helping innocent people accused of crimes
in their defense. The very basic principle
of justice, is your fundamental right to the presumption of innocence. We will prepare a very strong and
thorough defense, with sixteen years experience on matters involving sexual assault, domestic
charges, violent crimes, property offenses, white collar crime, extradition,
constitutional challenges, and search warrants.
Consultation: If you are in custody, we will make
arrangements to meet you there. We have
security clearance at most correctional institutions in
Manitoba.
At that time, we will discuss your case in detail, and to obtain background information with respect to the nature of your charge/s and all the particulars of all witnesses. We accept all major criminal cases.
Disclosure: We will require your written consent to
obtain a copy of your police particulars, and disclosure. If you have an alibi
defense, then we will require your written consent to release personal information, so we can investigate these matters. We will also provide you with copies of our
investigation.
Review: All the evidence will be reviewed and we will
prepare your strategy for the defense which may include obtaining detailed statements from witnesses, including crown
witnesses, and any relevant background investigation. Any statements that we do obtain, witnesses
will be entitled to a copy.
Meet: We will meet with you to discuss our plan of
action and we will keep the lines of communication open.
Investigate: We will investigate
your case in a very objective and diligent manner disclosing all evidence to
you or your lawyer so he/she can prepare his/defense. The lawyer may choose to provide the
evidence to the crown in an effort to have the charges stayed if there is
sufficient evidence of reasonable doubt. However, if your matter does go to trial, the
lawyer will challenge the crown’s evidence by attacking the credibility
of the witnesses based on our investigation. The defense does not have to prove that you didn’t do it, he/she
only needs to raise a reasonable doubt.
