We came across Mr. Calvin Barry's website and was amazed with the Firm's experience in all areas of the law, especially with criminal offences. We are grateful with the outcome of the DUI charges, professionally handled by a trial lawyer, Mr. Shale Wagman and the attentiveness of his junior lawyer (student-at-law), Mr. Rawi Asghar made all the difference on our case. The Firm's commitment, dedication, concerns and assurance with an associate lawyer, Mr. Kunal Mishra had put Alexander as ease with the legal process with all possible outcome. This experience and the favorable outcome of the DUI charges have renewed our faith & trust in the legal system. A sincere thank you to all associates & staff of the law firm Calvin Barry, Criminal Lawyers.

Very happy that my DUI charges were tossed by the judge. Calvin’s team pulled up the body worn camera of the officer, because of excessive force and the Crown moved to withdraw the charges. Calvin and his team are the best. Period.

I am absolutely thrilled to have had Calvin Barry and his exceptional team defend me in my DUI case. From the outset, their professionalism, expertise, and dedication were evident.
Lawyer Shale, who worked on my case, demonstrated remarkable knowledge of the court system and an immense amount of experience. The student who assisted on the case was also fantastic, showing a keen understanding of the complexities involved.
Together, they fought tirelessly on my behalf, and their efforts yielded a successful outcome. I'm forever grateful for their hard work, guidance, and support throughout this challenging process.
If you're facing a similar situation, I highly recommend Calvin Barry and his team. Their expertise and commitment to justice are unmatched.
Thank you again, Calvin, Shale, and the entire team!" 5/5 stars.

I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding service I received from Ms. Nimrat Brar at Calvin Barry Professional Corporation. I was facing very serious charges, and from the moment Ms. Brar took charge of my case, I felt confident and at ease. Thanks to her diligent work, professionalism, and expertise, my charges were stayed. She was always responsive, keeping me informed at every stage of the process, and made sure I never felt in the dark. The level of commitment and hard work she put into my case was exceptional. The team at Calvin Barry Professional Corporation truly goes above and beyond. I highly recommend Ms. Brar and this firm to anyone seeking skilled, reliable legal representation!

Calvin Barry is the best. He was excellent in court and knew everyone in the courtroom. Calvin had my charges thrown out and my prints and photos destroyed.
We did not admit to any wrongdoing and it was an excellent result, as I don’t have a criminal record and I could not not have in my business. Absolute top shelf representation.

I had a traumatizing experience about 1.5yrs ago and it was a serious case. I was charged with a DUI, Stunt Driving and 2 other charges. It was not an easy case to deal with and I thank my lucky stars, angels that came in the form of my LAWYERS. Akash Dhillon took over the case that my other lawyers were facilitating and I cannot let them go unnoticed (Rohit Chibber, Jeremy Naresh, Mohit Chibber). They all were beyond helpful and supportive through this stressful period. My case closed with careless driving and interlock to be installed. These kinds of life moments really change the trajectory of your life path and i'm grateful that I had a team that had my back. Since then, I've turned my life around. Thank you so much to Calvin Barry's team and staff for their relentless efforts in reaching this conclusion.

I retained Mr. Barry's services, once I was informed that false allegations had been made against me to the police. Mr. Barry, his associates and team of investigators were very detailed and thorough. They resolved my matter quickly and efficiently without any charges or speaking to police. I would highly recommend Mr. Barry's firm no matter the situation, they will provide you with a detailed explanation and evaluate your predicament fairly and honestly, whether the matter be criminal or regulatory.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Calvin Barry Defence Solicitors, and I couldn't be more satisfied with their services. From the very beginning, Calvin and his team demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, dedication, and expertise that immediately put my mind at ease.
Calvin Barry's vast experience and deep understanding of the law were evident in every aspect of my case. He provided clear and concise explanations of the legal process, ensuring that I was fully informed and comfortable with each step we took. His strategic approach and meticulous attention to detail were instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome.
What truly sets Calvin Barry Defence Solicitors apart is their unwavering commitment to their clients. The team was always responsive, accessible, and genuinely compassionate. They took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and provide invaluable support throughout the entire process.

VERY disappointed w/ Calvin Barry(CB).My son had 3 massive,blatant & egregious violations of his Rights, which CB chose to overlook-instead of going to crown asking for charges dropped;there's video proof of police lying to 2nd officer about my son;an inconclusive tox rprt-confirmed by author of report;drug eval.rprt was cut/pasted (another surname used in place of my son's-4 times);police stmnt contradicted medical rprt; son didn't have slow/slurred speech on video as per police stmnt;confirmed health issues.CB didn't ask for POI to have that charge dropped;CB missed court date & warrant was issued for my son's arrest.After 15 mnths & large legal bill, CB tells us GREAT OFFER from crown to drop charges down to careless driving.Immediately retained new lawyer,who in 4 DAYS,approached crown & had ALL CHARGES DROPPED. Summary-CB's firm-15 mnths getting careless driving charge, or new lawyer in 4 days has ALL CHARGES DROPPED. Also court date missed/warrant for arrest-undue stress

I am to have had Calvin and his incredible team on my side during a very difficult time in my life and afterwards. They were responsive at any time I needed them, day or night, they patiently walked me through everything, and went above and beyond to provide me as much support as I needed during the endless court process.
Best of all THEY NEVER LOSE!
Thank you Calvin, Rohit and the rest of the team so very much.
Top criminal firm in Toronto.
Hands down.

Never have I met a bigger group of liars, crooks and thieves. I took them to court where they offered back half the monies I paid them. They did virtually no work; never returned calls or kept me up to date. In fact, they never even called the Crown or witnesses & worsened my situation exponentially. They agreed to have my papers purged within 120 days, and then months after the deadline, sent the info to the wrong police force. Before trial, the only meeting I had was with Calvin's wife, a landscaper. Have you ever heard of a lawyer going to trial without meeting you first to discuss the facts? Dave Burke showed up at trial after we only met once for mere minutes. Further meetings that were promised never happened. After trial, I was falsely told Dave Burke had retired so I couldn't even reach him on the phone. Run as fast as you can and as far away as you can from this swarthy group of creeps. Learn for yourself of Calvin's own charges & why he's no longer working for the Crown.

I would recommend Calvin and his team to anyone who has had any kind of assault charges leveled at them. I was arrested after an incident at a bar in Toronto in late 2019. Calvin got the video tape of the encounter and I was quickly exonerated with all charges being dropped. Great work all around.

My son was facing serious jail time and several charges. Even though we were prepared for the worst case scenario, the lawyers at Calvin Barry law got us an outcome that was beyond our best case scenario. I know that every case doesn't end like ours, but the advice, effort and expertise shown by his lawyers was second to none. I owe you guys everything.

Rear ended a car making lane change on Queen St, had some drinks prior & was scared I was over 80, guy I hit called cops & I said fine & said going to use washroom at bar in front of us, went in & belted back 3 dbl shots of Jamieson's cops came charged me Over 80 n careless driving, Calvin worked his magic & brought in a toxicologist who made the case from time consumed & body weight I wasn't over during accident & also was able to get careless reduced to failure to drive in a marked lane. Calvin & his team saved my skin, I need my license for work & also my insurance was barely touched compared to what if the careless charge stood. Calvin was straight forward with me & described the how's and whats of how our case would proceed, no surprises. I have and will continue to REFER Calvin Barry for a lawyer as he did an amazing job for me. Thank you again Calvin !

Having never committed an offence before I was extremely emotional, nervous and upset. First off Mr. Barry was empathetic which helped ease my anxiety. He was very knowledgeable, clear in his communication (he always took the time to put all the legal jargon into layman's terms) and his staff always was there to take my calls as well as answer any questions my family had with regards to my case. I felt well supported and we had the best outcome thanks to his thoroughness and diligence. I would use him again if I had to and have already recommended him to others. I am grateful to him and his team.

Calvin and his staff are an amazing firm to hire if you're looking for the best criminal defence out there. I was pulled over and charged with dangerous driving, blow over 80, and stunt driving. Calvin was able to get the blow over 80 and stunt driving thrown out, and he got me an absolute discharge on my dangerous driving offence. Overall, I received no criminal conviction, and no criminal record. I learned my lesson from this experience and Calvin used his advanced advocacy skills to ensure that my whole future wasn't ruined by this mistake. His court room charisma is extremely persuasive. But more than that, he believed in me and he convinced the Crown and Judge to believe in me as well. Calvin is straight up, and he fights for his clients. He's the real deal when it comes to his knowledge of criminal law and litigation. And if you think he's pricey, think again. You get what you pay for and Calvin's services are worth every penny. You can't put a price on the results he gets.

I had the pleasure of working with Calvin Barry and his associates over last year for my case, and time and time again he always went above and beyond the call of duty. Whenever I had to go into the court room, his staff made me feel very confident in their ability to perform the task at hand and knowledge of the specific area I was involved with. With regards to communication whenever I messaged Calvin, I would get a response within minutes, communication was always clear, his tenacity was more than a stress reliever, the work quality and value was unparalleled. Overall 5/5 experience, thankful I decided to go with Calvin.

Mr Barry is genuinely nice and incredibly knowledgeable. He fights for the truth . He called me friend and took care of all my concerns. His fee is more than fair. He has good critical analysis skills. He is to the point and a great defender of human rights. He works with a great team Mr Palmer a kind understanding intelligent lawyer and Mr Schacter a very matter of fact intelligent lawyer. His team right from Mrs Helen to Every person you meet are polite and caring. This lawyer Mr Barry is truly a friend to the wrongfully accused. He will fight to gain you complete protection. Being a female immigrant business girl with some fears of people due to hurtful past experiences I face harassment and bullying but the day I met this law team I know I'm secure and my rights will never be violated. God bless his family as he helps many families facing stress and trouble. He is on my speed dial . Thank you.

I was extremely satisfied with the quality of service provided by Calvin Barry PC. I had never been in the situation where I required a criminal lawyer and I was naive to the process. Mr. Barry provided a detailed explanation of what I was to expect and weighted the pros and cons of each potential option I had. I am happy to say that my matter was resolved successfully and I have not had to use him since. Although I don't intend to be a repeat customer as I'm not interested in any more criminal charges, if you find yourself in a bind Calvin Barry's PC is the place to go.

I want to preface this by saying i have no prior convictions and before a few months ago, I had never been in trouble with the law. I made the mistake of driving after having one too many libations, was pulled over and charged with impaired driving. One of my good friends who also had this issue, referred me to Calvin Barry, who successfully dealt with his charges. Mr. Barry was able to interview me the day after I was released. He explained all the possible defences to my charge. I was delightfully surprised to see how many cases he had defended in the past. The walls of his boardroom are covered in newspaper clippings detailing his high profile career. He handled my case with extreme professionalism, and was able to reduce the immense amount of stress I was facing. I never had to go to court, I never missed work, and he always replied to my calls and emails within the same day. I would highly recommend Mr. Barry for all criminal matters. Go Raptors!

Calvin and his team walked me through the entire process, answering questions and making me feel at ease. In the end, they were able to have my charge withdrawn, and my record is clean. I can't thank them enough for helping me through a difficult time.

I wanted to extend my sincerest of gratitude to the Calvin Barry team in the representation and handling of my victorious case. I was referred by close friends of whom regarded Calvin Barry as the highest respected criminal lawyers in the city and it was evident to me that I needed to hire the best. We all know the copious amounts of emotional distress experienced by defendants whom, at first, seem to require more emotional than legal support and that's what they extended. After partaking in trial, it became vividly clear to me the level of immense diligence conducted by your team in finding any way to dismiss my case which was truly magnificent.
This conviction brought forth an experience that I will never forget and surely, my idiotic decision will never be repeated. It is beyond sad to note that alcohol has been a factor in 30-40% of road deaths in Canada over the past 15 years. Surely I've learned a valuable lesson of which will be shared amongst my network of family and friends t

THE BEST IN HIS FIELDE!!!! CALVIN AND HIS TEAM OF DEDICATED AND CARING PROFESSIONALS SAVED MY LIFE AND CAREER. AFTER BEING CHARGED WITH IMPAIRED OVER 89 BEING A OWNER OPERATOR OF TRUCKS I WANTED ONLY THE BEST TO HELP ME. THEY DELIVERED AND THAN SOME. ALWAYS QUICKLY RESPONDING TO MY QUESTIONS AND MAKING ME FEEL SECURE AND CONFIDENT, WON MY CASE AND GOT MY LIFE BACK. HE REALLY DOES WIN ALL OF HIS CASES, THIS IS WHY HE IS A SPECIALIST IN THIS FIELD. HE HELD MY HAND THROUGHOUT THE TRIAL AND WE WON CHARGES WITHDRAWN.

We hired CB after reading on his website that he was the best. What a JOKE and POOR EXCUSE of an attorney. Same story, told us we had a pretty high chance for a WIN, got our $7500.00, he never showed up at court, didn't properly keep us up to date on the case (would often call a day or 2 before having to be IN the court room to tell us the date was set, Thanks for the heads up)Then on trial date had his monkey he sent inform us that there was NO WAY we could win, to plead guilty and get an interlock in 6 months. GEE THANKS! Trial was one year after the incident. Had my fiancée just plead guilty from the get go he would have his licence back now and would have saved us a ton of money... Instead, he is only 2 months in to his 1 yr suspension, we are in debt to my father in law, and now have to pay for an interlock. One side note, CB tried charging us 250 for a "expert" I never seen an "expert" we refused to pay... THIS GUY IS A SCAM AND ALL OF THE REVIEWS ARE 110% ACCURATE

I had to pay him $7500.00. He was to meet with me at the intial consultation but he did not show up . His substitute lawyer told me there was a good case for a WIN . He didn't show up at the next meeting either . Students or juniors showed up at the various court sessions instead of hiom . They always indicated that calvin Barry would WIN and that he held a lot of evens where a lot of Judges attended . It all shounded a SURE WIN . Kept demanding more money. So he had the full $7500.00 before the trial . But on the day of the trial he told told me for first time that we cannot win this case and that I should plead Gui;ty otherwise he was afraid that I could go to jail even thuogh it was a first time DUI.He had lied all along untile got all of the $7500.00. As result I could not get on the Fast Track program and it cost me more money for the interlock system etc .In my opinion he runs a scam .Don't beleive in what he says in his slick website.I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM ,STAY AWAY .Its m

This guy is all over the internet like Coca Cola, so I foolishly thought I should use him. Too bad I did not listen to all the warnings. It would have save me grief.

I hired him and he didnt even show up fpr my trial. I ended up losing the case. Lost my licence and got a criminal record. I do not recommend this lawyer. He doesn't return calls and seems be too busy to care about his clients.

Calvin Barry helped me in the fraud charges placed on me unfairly because i worked for a commodity trader whom i trusted in 2010. Mr Barry is classy and intellegent and thorough with the law. he referred me to a good therapist to help me cope with fear ,He answered every phone call when i panicked and got all my charges completely thrown out at preliminary hearing . he is the best lawyer in canada , he is honest and charges way less than other leading criminal lawyers. God bless Mr barry, he really is a genius .

Mr Barry and all layers of his firm fought my case and won. They were all knowledgable and all professional. Saved me years of insurance woes and points on my license. Yes there were juniors in his firm that performed simple tasks, but rates was adjusted accordingly. Thank you Team Calvin.

I definitely would NOT recommend Calvin Barry as a choice for any legal services. He's out for your money and he'll say otherwise. DON'T believe in him. At first, the consultations are with him. Later he just ends up handing it off to someone else within his firm, even though you pay for his representation. When the big day came, I had someone from his firm represent me with NO MATERIALS to support my case. They knew my case had a little to NO chance right from the start. This was something they could of but didn't mention when they received my disclosure/evidence. They didn't put up a real proper fight for my case knowing and even emphasizing the IMPORTANCE of my case. He just talks fancy. Unfortunately I didn't listen to what I was told about him and to NOT let him represent me. This whole process only costed me. Wasting a ton of money, time & effort. Ultimately, I would have been better off just walking in myself and pleaing guilty. DON'T USE CALVIN BARRY. YOU'LL REGRET IT.

Very well versed on the law. Issues we're rectified immediately and properly. A genuine Class Act.

Mr. Calvin Barry is far away from being a lawyer. My life is miserable for the next 3 years because he could not represent my case as a professional lawyer. He also did not show up at the court house but sent an agent to work on behalf of him. Not worth to spend a penny on him. he thinks he is something but he really dose not even know the law.

My DUI experience sounds eerily like that of the person who left a review on 4/27/11. Aside from 2 sit-downs (1 needless) after my initial consultation, I only heard from them when they required more $. $7,000 or so to have my file passed to another 2 lawyers (1 from CB's office, 1 from another firm who bragged about being "the best"), who then passed it to another lawyer or 2 who, on my second day at court, recommended I plead guilty because the cop is "really good". It seemed like the Crown said more for my cause in court than my lawyer. If I (or CB) had just plead me guilty at the start, I would have saved thousands of $ and would have been driving sooner. I haven't heard from them since (almost a year since conviction) - not a thanks for your business, not a final invoice.

Spent $10.000 with this individual, at first he told me my case had the base for a strong defense and convinced me to sign up with them, on the week of my trial, his "little story" changed a little bit. Never returned my calls, only called me to ask for more money,the guy above is right, he works with a bunch of juniors wich probably have no clue about what they're doing. stay away from CB n associates. JUST NOT WORTH IT!!!

Do NOT hold for anyone in this firm for counsel, please. After a year of simple adjournments I was left with nothing in the way of defense for a DUI, even though I had no previous criminal record, and breathalyser readings barely cracking the .08 readings. DUI,currently (2011-03) is an almost infallible charge, unconstitutional, I beleive. For what it's worth, I paid 7 thousand for counsel that was very, very timid in a trial setting. In the end, I received the same as I would have if I had simple plead guilty. (minus the 7 grand, which I have a hard time believing went to true billing). Good luck. The law has made criminals out of responsible people while the real offenders will always, ALWAYS be out there.

By far the best Lawyer in Canada, no doubt that my file was handled in the most expeditious and just manner. Highly recommended. Returned all my calls, updated me every step of the way.

I was very dissapointed with this lawyer. He never returned my calls and he was not prepared for my trial. It cost me thousands of dollars and in the end I am worse off than what I was when I hired him. I lost my licence and had to pay huge fines!!

This guy is the best in his field of DUI. He is not cheap, but his success history speaks for itself. He was also a former prominent crown attorney.Saved my license and thousands of added expenses from insurance.
