At DeMelo Heathcote, we recognize that criminal charges are stressful, and we strive to help you through this trying time. We have created a reputation for ourselves of caring for our clients. We recognize that every story has more than one side, and we commit ourselves to hear your side and working with it.

We believe in a fulsome approach to helping our clients – one which recognizes that criminal charges often carry a complicated set of related, but different circumstances. We specialize in working with clients who have addiction issues and mental health issues. We also believe in access to justice and ensuring everyone charged with an offence has an opportunity to be defended vigorously. For this reason, DeMelo Law is also proud to accept Legal Aid certificates.
