CONSULTATION SERVICES
Receive legal advice and information during a comprehensive review of your case. Initial consultations are usually 1.5 to 2 hours in length, in person in Ottawa, or by telephone.
NEGOTIATION SERVICES
The legal system may seem to be a confusing and intimidating minefield. I understand the system and negotiate on your behalf, so you receive all your legal protections. Even more, as a skilled negotiator, I navigate encounters with police and prosecution so you can avoid charges, or have charges withdrawn or reduced.
LEGAL DEFENCE
If your case ends up in court, you'll benefit from my advocacy skills. Having litigated extensively both as a defence lawyer and as a crown prosecutor, I have unique insight to help you achieve a successful result.
About
Lisa Christian
Defence Lawyer, B.A. LL.B. (J.D.) Ontario

Commissioner for Oaths Ontario and Quebec
The focus is on criminal defence work. I also appear on quasi-criminal matters in provincial offences court for serious driving or other provincial offences.
Dealing with governments, police and other investigators, and prosecutors and judges on your behalf is strongly supported by my Bachelor of Arts Degree from Carleton University in Political Science, with a minor in Economics, followed by a Law Degree from the University of Ottawa. Since being called to the Bar of Ontario in 1987, I have practised mainly as a sole practitioner in criminal defence, and I've also founded a legal research and writing business, practised civil law in a large law firm, and I was an Assistant Crown Attorney doing criminal prosecutions.
When you find yourself in a difficult legal situation - call me - I have the expertise to handle files of every complexity. I'm in Ottawa and I have an associate in Toronto working virtually. You can reach me on my direct line at (613) 203-4874.
