    5.00 / 5

    Michael and his team saved the day. Words cannot describe my gratitude for the roleMichael and his team played in the outcome of my case from day one to closing his team was extremely helpful andknowledgeable. Michael sure knows how to communicate and negotiate with a calming charm. You may not get dailyupdates but when Michael schedules a call, you want to jump up and take it. Shoutout to Elena for always beingpresent and very approachable when I was worried or concerned and getting me through the first parts ofresolving this matter, anytime of day, I emailed or called, Elena was always there.

  • "I highly recommend Mr. Oykhman or any others in hisfirm to anyone that wants hands off and stress-free legal services."

    5.00 / 5

    I have had Mr. Oykhman or others in his firm represent me three times now and on alloccasions the issues were fully resolved and in my favor. On the first on any pending charges were withdrawn, onthe second one I received the results I was hoping for and on the third one the results far exceeded anyexpectations I had and the charges were withdrawn. This review is especially for the third charge which was fora DUI I was charged with in December of 2019. I retained Mr. Oykhman to represent me directly due to theseverity of the situation. In the Spring of 2020 Mr. Oykhman and I went over the evidence files. The informationwas very incriminating, and the 911 reviews were damming and embarrassing. My original trial was for June 2020but because of COVID it was postponed till Nov 2020. I was on my way to Calgary via the bus as I expected tohave my license pulled again after the trial. Michael called me on the way to Calgary and informed me he hadnegotiated with the crown prosecutor and that the charges would be dropped, I was completely shocked at this!His service throughout this case was second to none. He always replied in very short order to any queries I had.I have confidence that once Mr. Oykhman is retained everything will be resolved and more than likely in afavorable way because he understands the issues at hand and how to use the technical areas to his/my advantage.I highly recommend Mr. Oykhman or any others in his firm to anyone that wants hands off and stress-free legalservices. In my experiences with him and the firm the outcome in all 3 events were extremely favorable, farbetter than I deserved. Mr. Oykhman is extremely versed and VERY WELL TIED IN with the judicial system. I willnever think of hiring another criminal lawyer again.

    5.00 / 5

    I was facing serious sexual assault charges, I felt like life as I had known it to beover. It was the most stressful time of my life. I looked for a defence lawyer and found Ryan Patmore at OykhmanCriminal Defence Law. I reached out to Ryan and set up a meeting, from the first meeting Ryan was veryprofessional and easy to talk to, he told me to leave everything to him. When I left his office my stress levelsdropped and i felt that there was hope after all. Ryan took care of everything and kept me posted. I went to thepreliminary hearing with Ryan, he assured me that it wasn’t my trial and that he would do all the talking.Shortly after the preliminary Ryan called me to tell me that all charges were dropped. It felt like a big weighthad been lifted off me. Ryan Patmore and his team go above and beyond and I highly recommend Ryan Patmore to anyone who needs a really good defence lawyer.
