About Carlos Da Cruz: Barrister & Solicitor
I am an experienced lawyer who has studied law in Canada, Australia and the United States. In my experience I have bared witness to the very real abuses of state power. Abuses in state power leads to wrongful convictions. In a time where fundamental principles of criminal law are being eroded with increasing police powers and defences are being restricted or being taken away, many people don’t exercise their rights as fully as they should. Between the police, the crown and the courts, that leaves me. I frequently advise my clients that in most cases, I am their only friend in court. I treat each client with respect and dignity and remind them that just because they were charged that they are presumed innocent until proven guilty. I inspire faith in my abilities and transfer that faith to my clients. At the end of the day, it is my experience, diligence, and lack of complacency that makes me the right lawyer for you. With me, you get experience, cutting edge trial techniques, and the sensibility that comes from a rich life experience. I also have that fearless and warrior attitude that comes with over a decade of experience with the Canadian Forces. My trial results, testimonials, and a good old fashioned consultation with me will show you why I am the right choice for your legal defence.
My international training includes the theory and operation of the Intoxilyzer 8000C and the various approved screening devices used in Ontario by law enforcement. As a DUI defence lawyer, this training allows me to lift the veil of presumption that the instrument provides reliable readings of one’s BAC.
I have also successfully completed the Drug Recognition Evaluation course taught by the OPP, across Canada, and the US, from a leading subject-matter expert in Ontario.
If you are charged with any criminal offence, including a DUI (Impaired, Over 80, Refuse to Provide Breath Sample), make sure I’m you’re first call.

Without experience on being charged criminally, i was fortuned to to came across Carlos DaCruz barrister and solicitor......Mr. Carlos DaCruz was not pretensions, glamours or insinuative on his practice of law, he was assertive and patient with my upset attitude to be charged with failing to provide a breath sample. i had trial today as scheduled but it was not resolved because crown asked for an adjournment on this 15 months old case of mine. My point being, MY CASE STILL NOT RESOLVED BUT I COULD NOT EVER EXPECT A MORE PROFESSIONAL, ASSERTIVE, GROUNDED DEFENSE....I STRONGLY RECOMMEND MR CARLOS DACRUZ- carlos antunes. 9/26/2019
