Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Brampton courthouse?
Most Brampton criminal cases are heard at the Ontario Court of Justice at 7755 Hurontario Street, Brampton, ON L6W 4T1. Superior Court matters are heard at 161 Wellington Street East. Which courthouse your case proceeds in depends on the charge and how it is elected.
What should I do if I have been charged by Peel Regional Police?
Do not speak to police beyond identifying yourself. Anything you say can be used against you at trial. Speak to a criminal defence lawyer before your first court appearance. A lawyer can review the disclosure, assess the Crown's case, and advise whether to seek a resolution or set the matter for trial.
Does Daniel Brown Law represent clients at Brampton court?
Yes. The lawyers at Daniel Brown Law defend clients at Brampton court on impaired driving, assault, domestic assault, sexual offences, weapons charges, drug offences, fraud, and homicide.
Does having a lawyer at a bail hearing in Brampton matter?
It often makes the difference between release and detention. A contested bail hearing requires counsel to address the Crown's position, propose a release plan, and call sureties where needed. Bail decisions are difficult to undo on review, so getting bail right the first time matters.
What happens at a first appearance in Brampton?
Nothing is decided at a first appearance. The court confirms you have counsel and sets the next date so disclosure can be reviewed. Your lawyer can appear on your behalf so you do not need to attend in person.
