“I found myself in a very hopeless situation. I had a severe alcohol addiction issue and made the mistake of driving my vehicle while intoxicated one day. I had an accident in the process and was arrested on the spot. I blew several times over the legal limit, there were 8 witnesses at the accident and I was arrested immediately. I knew I was was in BIG trouble…. So I called Michael to help me navigate through the legal process. Two days before my court trial date, Michael phones me to tell me that my case has been dropped/stayed. I asked him how did that happened? And his answer was that “it’s because I am excellent at what I do.” And its true he is. He then proceeded to give me some excellent advice to deal with my addiction. Michael and his team have given me a second chance at a normal life. I can’t thank him and his team enough for the work they did for me. I am happy to provide referrals to Oykham so feel free to call their office to get my # if you are looking for a reference to their remarkable service.”

“In a very traumatic time in my life it was extremely fortunate that I got the personal recommendation to use Michael Oykhman as my lawyer, and it was the best decision I could have made.

He helped to calm the waters and set me through a path to deal with, and move past, my charges. The whole experience with him, and his law firm was extremely positive and professional. All questions were dealt with quickly and thoroughly, all correspondences were clear and informational. To add to this Michael’s calming demeanour, coupled with his honest input, helped me to understand, and clarify my case, and what my chances were to get a positive outcome, which is exactly what he was able to do for me.

I would not hesitate to fully recommend Michael and his law firm to anybody that is looking for a thorough, competent, caring, professional lawyer who is going to get the best outcome for you!”

“I came to Michael’s office because I found myself in a bad situation. I was charged for assault when i was protecting my child from somebody’s harm. Michael took over the case in a timely manner. He’s good at what he do, i have to say it. At last, my case was dropped/stayed and I am so thankful for what he did for my family. There’s no word can express my thank to his crew and him. I would recommend Michael to anyone who seeking the best defense lawyer. Michael will deliver the best result to you.”

“I called Elizabeth to help me with a traffic ticket. She was courteous, kind and prompt in every interaction and quickly resolved the matter to great satisfaction. I highly recommend Elizabeth, she is a great lawyer.”

“I found myself charged with crimes I couldn’t understand the basis of. Being a part of the group of people who don’t qualify for Legal Aid and can’t afford a lawyer, I was beyond stressed as I contemplated navigating the criminal justice system on my own. Danielle heard of my predicament and offered to take the case with a payment arrangement that I could manage. Her friendly professionalism helped ease my frayed nerves and her never-ending confidence that she could help put this matter behind me was unshakeable. The end result was I still have a clean record and faith that there is help available for those who need it. Thanks, Danielle! I couldn’t have made it through without your assistance.”

“Elaine is an excellent lawyer, she gave me great news today!!!
I came back from my holidays at the beginning of the year with a public mischief charge and it basically had me worried to the extent that I couldn’t eat or sleep anymore without thinking something bad was going to happen. I got a hold of Elaine and gave her all my information and she got more information and she got my case stayed which is excellent , I am so happy for what the outcome an extreme weight has been lifted of my shoulders and I thank Elaine for her knowledge of the case that she dealt with for me. I highly recommend Elaine or any of her colleagues at Oykhman to help you in a criminal matter that you are not sure about. Elaine is one heck of a lawyer she is awesome at what she does. Thank you again Elaine.”

“All little over a year ago I made a bad decision based on some bad advice which ended up with me being in a lot of trouble with the law. As a husband and father I was terrified. I called Michael based on his many positive reviews and I’m very glad I did. He was very professional and honest. He laid everything out for me and didn’t sugar coat it. My charges were serious and could have made my life very difficult and although it seemed like there was a very good case against me, Michael and his team worked very hard to find mistakes made by the arresting officers and ultimately let to my case being withdrawn. My family and I are very grateful for the help that we received. I learned a very hard lesson, but the outcome could have been a lot worse. I would not hesitate to recommend Michael and his team to anyone who finds themselves in need of a good criminal defense lawyer.”

“Excellent and exceptional professional service from Ian and his staff during my recent DUI charge. Thank you for your assistance and positive outcome.”

“Calling Michael Oykhman was the best choice made during a time that created a lot of uncertainty and stress to our family from an impaired driving charge. The long term effects of a guilty charge would have been devastating. Michael found substantial errors in the process of the arrest resulting in an absolute discharge of the case four months later. These unfortunate situations often provide opportunities for people to re-evaluate their current lifestyles and other than the financial costs associated with retaining an excellent lawyer like, Mr. Oykhman, there can be light at the end of the process and thanks to Michael all of that has been fully realized. His services were worth every dime as a guilty charge would have resulted in much higher personal and monetary costs. Michael was the best, and in hindsight, the only choice. His thorough and personal touch with this file was what resulted in a total best case scenario outcome.”

“Six months ago I made a terrible mistake. I spoke to Michael Oykhman to begin with. He recommended Leah Staples. When she was no longer available, Elaine Ng took over my case. I can say now I am so happy with the outcome. I highly recommend Elaine or any of her colleagues at Michael Oykhman Defense Law in any criminal matter.”
