"Elaine and Myranda kept me informed throughout and I highly recommend them."
I wholeheartedly recommend Oykhman Criminal Defence Law. Elaine Ng and her Assistant Myranda Smale provided exceptional service! When facing criminal charges I foolishly considered dealing with the matter on my own. I cannot express what a serious error in judgement that would have been. After researching Oykhman Criminal Defence Law; engaging the services of Elaine Ng and meeting with her, I knew I had made a sound decision. Elaine took the time to explain the process; offered me options and recommended a path that ultimately was successful in resolving my matters with the best possible outcome – the withdrawal of the charges. Elaine was key in this process. Elaine and Myranda kept me informed throughout and I highly recommend them.

"Michael's expertise and experience gave us the ultimate resolution; the criminal charges were withdrawn."
When we found ourselves in a situation we thought we would never be in, we were lost and had no idea what steps to take next. We were scared, fearful for the future and the impact criminal charges could potentially have on our son. Then we met Michael. Right from the consultation meeting, he was able to explain to us what to expect and how the legal system viewed allegations concerning a youth. He explained his fees thoroughly so that we could make informed decisions financially on how to proceed. We are so thankful we chose Michael!
He involved our son in all communications and answered any questions he had. He was able to provide some perspective during the worst time in our lives.
Michael’s expertise and experience gave us the ultimate resolution; the criminal charges were withdrawn. We will be forever grateful for Michael and his knowledge and abilities! Thank you Michael!

Ms. Ryland and her team were excellent, as well as resourceful during my predicament. I enjoyed her timely responses, as well as her uplifting attitude throughout my case.
I will definitely recommend this professional law institution to my colleagues and friends, if they ever find themselves in unforeseen circumstances.
Overall, I am grateful for the outstanding help that I have received from Michael Ohkyman and Associates.
Most of all, I would like to send my best to Ms. Ryland; keep up the terrific work. My only hope now, is that I will never have to ask for Michael Ohkyman and Associates help again, and I say that with the best regards as well.

"Thank-you Greg Janzen and et al, for the work you do!"
I first tried to take care of things on my own. But when the courts escalated my file and I discovered diversion services would no longer be an option I was stressed and overwhelmed to the max. My disclosure revealed accusations that I couldn’t begin to dispel and my shock along with the incipient charges rattled me to the core. I knew I needed a lawyer and while I couldn’t really afford one, I knew I couldn’t afford not to. I met with several lawyers who quoted me retainers of $3,000-$5,000 and that didn’t even include resolution fees or admin processing. Forget Snukel or Iovinelli, who in my bidding left me uncertain of my outcome and could only be sure of how much it would cost to get my foot in the door.
My eternal gratitude goes to Michael Oykhman who I accidentally connected with first. I’m sure he’s a busy man running this firm, but he never redirected my call and listened to me and reassured me instantly that my circumstances were surmountable and that we wouldn’t break the bank to see to it they be resolved in my favor. As of yesterday, I am now free and in the clear. Charges have been withdrawn and my fingerprints and photos with police have been destroyed and I can now look forward to travel and work opportunities that won’t be limited by what I feared would be an indelible mark on my record compromising my bank job and ability to be bondable! I worked out of province and my defense lawyer made sure I was able to live my life freely without being encumbered. For that reason alone I recommend getting a lawyer, there are so many appearances you can’t be missing work for! But, it doesn’t stop there. Not only was Greg Janzen on top of my case, he is extremely kind and made himself available by phone, email and in person to counsel me throughout the process. I can’t thank him enough for seeing my matters resolved in a timely fashion and perfectly in line with my ideal outcome. I never felt anxiety once I committed to this firm and appreciate their flexibility and commitment to me during my journey that would have otherwise caused me so much distress and limited my freedoms. Thank-you Greg Janzen and et al, for the work you do! Please consider this firm if you find yourself in an unthinkable place and find yourself on the wrong end of the law. You will thank yourself for this time and time again, you aren’t alone when you have this team! Cheers.

"Anny Wang was my lawyer and she was very perfessional, honest and really cared about my well being"
Anny Wang was my lawyer and she was very perfessional, honest and really cared about my well being. She was like a friend that had your back. She was always there in stressful times and gave me the courage that things will be okay. I could not thank her more and a fantastic job done. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Highly recommended firm.

"Michael is the best lawyer I ever known."
Michael is the best lawyer I ever known. He’s understanding, professional, honest and also he cares about his clients. Most important he’s compassionate and available. Each time we contacted him he was able to either have the charges dropped or find great resolutions. I will definetely recommend him to anyone who needs help with legal issues.

"Thanks to them I have a new lease on life and a second chance - clear of all criminal charges."
Elaine helped me deal with an unimaginable situation. She kept me informed every step of the way and I could not have hoped for a better result. I truly don’t know where i’d be today without her services. Thanks to them I have a new lease on life and a second chance – clear of all criminal charges.
