Michel Fontaine - Criminal Lawyer, Edmonton, AB

Michel Fontaine believes that a successful criminal lawyer is one that is well prepared and willing to advance arguments before the courts tactfully, eloquently and forcefully.

Many criminal clients are first time offenders with little knowledge of the criminal justice system. Michel Fontaine believes a well-educated client is important and therefore a great deal of time is spent in the initial stages educating his clients on expectations through the criminal process. The criminal process can be stressful, complicated and at times confusing. Michel Fontaine’s experience in conducting many trials in the Provincial Court of Alberta and the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta provides his clients with the necessary confidence that he will ensure his clients are provided an effective defence no matter the severity or complexity of the offence.
