Our Approach
How We Defend Your Case
Call us immediately after an arrest or charge. We explain the allegations against you, the deadlines you are facing, and your realistic options.
If you are in custody, we act quickly to secure your release on reasonable bail conditions, including any no-contact terms.
We request and review all Crown disclosure — witness statements, video, and medical records — to identify every weakness in the case.
We assess whether self-defence, consent, or mistaken identity applies, and identify any Charter breaches in your arrest.
We negotiate directly with the Crown, working toward a withdrawal, peace bond, or reduced charge that avoids a criminal record wherever the evidence allows.
If a fair resolution isn't available, we take the matter to trial and rigorously test the credibility of the Crown's witnesses.

Client Testimonials
What Our Burlington Clients Say
I had a very positive experience with Legal Solutions Law Firm. Ryan represented me in a family court matter and provided excellent guidance and support throughout the entire process. He was professional, knowledgeable, and always took the time to answer my questions and explain everything clearly. Family court matters can be stressful, but Ryan helped make the process much easier and gave me confidence every step of the way. I truly appreciated his dedication, responsiveness, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Legal Solutions Law Firm and Ryan to anyone looking for a compassionate and experienced family lawyer.
We tried to defend ourselves in civil court, but ultimately decided to hire Ryan — and it was the wisest decision we have made in the last two years of hell with our condo managers. Ryan and his team have been exceptional: swift, sharp, on the ball, and always asking the right questions while making the right arguments to move our case forward to the Superior Court.
Ryan did an outstanding job on my case. He was clear, professional, and always kept me informed. Thanks to his hard work, my charges were dropped. I’m very grateful and highly recommend him.
I wish I could add five more stars to show how happy we are with the legal services of Ryan J. Manilla and his team. They took charge of our legal matters, worked tirelessly on short notice, and delivered outstanding legal documents on time. Their teamwork, professionalism, patience, and understanding of our situation gave us tremendous peace of mind. Most importantly, we sleep better at night knowing that we are in good hands, with a legal team that has the expertise and compassion to handle sensitive matters with care.
I had a great experience working with Ryan at Legal Solutions. He is professional, responsive, and very knowledgeable. Any time I had questions, he got back to me quickly and provided practical advice. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.
I was going through anxiety not knowing what to expect with my case. Ryan explained everything simply and stood up for me at my hearing. I’m really thankful for his help!
I had such a stressful time trying to find legal help. I felt lost and hopeless when I got a notice to appear at the LTB. When I found Ryan, he stepped up and defended me. He’s knowledgeable about both the LTB and criminal law, and most importantly he’s tough! Exactly what I was looking for. I’m so glad I found him.
Ryan is a tough lawyer who defended us during a very difficult time. He helped me with a Landlord and Tenant Board issue. People told me to get a paralegal, but the ones I contacted either wouldn’t help or couldn’t communicate well in English. When I found Ryan, he explained the situation clearly and told me what to do. He showed up to the hearing tough and ready to go. I’m so glad I found him!
One of the best. Well poised, smart articulate. Know his stuff and one of the best lawyer out there to work with.

From My Experience: Burlington Clients Underestimate How Fact-Dependent Assault Cases Are
The most common thing I hear from Burlington clients at our first meeting is some version of, "It was not what it looked like." Assault cases are often far more nuanced than the initial charge suggests.
The single biggest factor in how an assault case turns out is often the quality of the evidence — inconsistent witness statements, gaps in video coverage, or a viable self-defence account that was never properly put forward. Waiting to get legal advice, or speaking to police without counsel, can mean losing opportunities that simply cannot be recovered later.
If you are facing an assault charge in Burlington or elsewhere in Halton Region, call us before your next court date. The consultation is free and there is no obligation: 416-274-2222.
