Child Pornography Lawyer

Child pornography charges are serious, and the penalties are severe. But an experienced criminal lawyer can help you fight for justice, even if your case seems hopeless. We understand that these charges can have a very negative effect on your life and come with serious consequences. We will work hard to get the best possible outcome for your case.
The Canadian Criminal Code considers the possession, accessing, distribution and making of child pornography to be serious offences. A conviction for any of these offences requires interaction with adult images, video, writings or sound recordings of a minor who is nude or engaging in sexual activity. All four offences carry mandatory minimum punishments and lengthy maximum sentences. The sentence will be increased if the offence was committed with the intent to make a profit. You may also be required to forfeit any property related to the offence and be restricted from contact with minors and places where you are likely to interact with them. You will also be required to register with the National Sex Offender Registry.
