COJOCARU SLATTERY LLP is comprised of Virgil E. Cojocaru and Carolyn S. D. Slattery Cojocaru, two lawyers who practice exclusively in the area of criminal defence. We've focused on this area of the law specifically since being called to the bar, and do not practice any other type of law except criminal defence.

While many firms service Peel Region or have a satellite office nearby, COJOCARU SLATTERY LLP is based in the heart of Brampton and holds a solid reputation at the Brampton Courthouse based on years of experience. We are familiar with the procedures, people, and places involved, and are known as well-respected members of the Brampton Criminal Defence Bar.

Further, at COJOCARU SLATTERY LLP, we understand that the criminal justice system is both serious and dynamic. As a result, we serve our clients with accessibility in mind: We do not maintain "office hours", we book by appointment, and when you call, you reach our lawyers directly via cell phone. When you come in for a free consultation, our office is centrally located in downtown Brampton, fully accessible, and close to transit. Though based in Brampton, we service the GTA and beyond.

A criminal charge can have a dramatic impact on your livelihood. Criminal matters require dedicated Counsel who are able to communicate and work together with the client to ensure they understand the process and their available options. Virgil and Carolyn are willing and able to do so, and will fashion an action plan best suited to address your particular circumstances.
