Hire HLS to Deal with Summary Offences
A summary conviction offence is a form of criminal activity, which is less serious than indictable crimes. In summary offences, the accused get lesser punishment than what an indictable accused gets. If convicted, an accused will have to pay the maximum fine of $5,000, while the maximum jail term can be 6 months. As an expert, I can help you to receive minimum punishment or penalties.
If there are charges against you with summary offences like shoplifting, theft under 5000, etc. you will have to fight the case at the Ontario Court of Justice. In summary offences, an accused will have no right to seek preliminary inquiry or the option of being tried by a judge. I will be there to represent you in the Ontario Court of Justice guide you in the proceedings.
In the case of a summary offence, the police department will have 12 months from the date the accused has committed the act to lay charges. As an accused, you will not have to present in the court, and you can hire HLS to present your case on your behalf until the day of trial.
However, if the judge of the court summons the accused, the accused must appear before the judge in person. If the accused remains unavailable, the judge can issue an arrest warrant.

Why You Should Hire an Expert to Deal with Criminal Summary Conviction?
Although summary offences like shoplifting are less serious compared to indictable violations once convicted, an accused can face many hurdles when going through the proceedings. The maximum punishment for a convicted person can be six months imprisonment, which can be a significant loss for an individual.
Whether it is a summary or indictable offence, if you are facing criminal charges, it can negatively impact your personal, professional and social life. Hence, if you are an accused who are struggling with criminal charges, you must hire an expert who can help you to protect your future.
