International Criminal Investigations / Prosecutions

For those caught up in the web of cross-border (Canada / USA) or overseas criminal investigations, ECD can provide you with advice and representation in the areas of extradition, treaty obligations and Mutual Legal Assistance Act applications.

Our firm has argued numerous extradition matters in the Superior Court, as well as before the Supreme Court of Canada.

Our network of contacts with leading U.S. criminal defence attorneys assists us in advising our clients on dealing with the U.S. Attorneys' and State Attorneys' offices in the conduct of criminal investigations and prosecution.

We can also assist Canadian clients seeking treaty transfers permitting them to return to Canada to serve their sentences in this country, where they are subject to Canadian parole rules.
