Hugh D. Sommerville, Q.C. Criminal Defence Lawyer

Great lawyer for the needs we had.

Don't look any further, really. Make the call to Mr. Sommerville, you will be glad you did. My family member had a serious unexpected situation that required the services of a criminal defence lawyer. The situation of domestic charges is very common among Albertan's due to certain laws instituted for police to charge if any domestic call is made. When families call police for help when dysfunction is happening in the home, they often instead are surprised with life and home altering mandates from the police, rather than getting the help they thought. DON'T get me wrong, IF YOU ARE IN DANGER AT HOME CALL THE POLICE!! As an emergency shelter outreach worker, I am very familiar with these situations and they should not be taken lightly. In our world however, there are many criminal lawyers that know this is an area they can rake in the thousands, and take advantage of peoples desperation to be reunited with their family, deal with the charges and begin to rebuild. Not Hugh. My family member immediately felt at rest after a brief initial consultation with him. After getting the go ahead, Hugh initiated legal actions that immediately assisted the situation that no other lawyer even mentioned were a possibility. He showed from day one that he KNOWS the laws and his working parameters very clearly on how he can advocate for his clients. His longstanding relations with Crown Prosecutors, and other partners in the legal system, allow him to streamline his clear communications, as they know his character, integrity and professionalism. His actions to quickly and efficiently work with my family member through the due process and come to resolution was nothing short of really amazing and totally remarkable. There were no feelings of being taken" financially
