    Do I get a record right after being charged with a crime?

    A criminal charge has effects similar to a criminal record. As soon as the police lay a criminal charge, the information goes to the RCMP information centre.  However, it disappears if the court dismisses the criminal charge. It also disappears if the Crown withdraws the charge. However, an accused gets a permanent criminal record if the court finds her or him guilty.

      Like many others, I was once lost and didn’t know what to do when I had received a traffic ticket of breaching s.136(1)(a). With much patience, Kate, the account manager, pleasantly took me through the steps from my legal rights available to the worst case scenario so that I know what legal procedures that I had to go through. Then Sergey, the Licensed Paralegal, brought his professional training and passion to comprehend and analyze my situation at the time so that my case can be undoubtedly presented. Thanks Kate and Sergey who had gone beyond the call to offer their assistance in helping me and I have no hesitation to recommend Spectrum Paralegal to my friends or relatives should there be a need for future assistance.
