Virginia Dolinska Criminal Defence

About a year and a half ago, I was falsely charged with a serious crime. I was extremely fortunate to meet with Virginia as she generously accepted my legal aid certificate, something not all lawyers are willing to do. Not only that, but she was willing to travel between Ottawa, Cornwall, and Kingston multiple times to meet with me and attend court in my stead. Throughout each meeting, Virginia exuded a professional and caring presence. She is very straightforward and honest, as from the beginning, she made it clear that it would be a long process and that victory was not a certainty. However, throughout the entire process she always made sure I understood what was going to happen and what my options were. Even though the case ended up going to trial, she never stopped fighting for me in court. She stood strong and confident the whole time and I am happy to say we won in the end. I could not have done it without Virginia's services. Although it was a long and stressful ordeal, as I was deeply concerned with the impact this case would have on me, knowing Virginia was on my side definitely eased my worries. I would highly recommend Virginia to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney in the Ottawa, Cornwall, or Kingston areas. Virginia will not sugarcoat things and will never guarantee victory, however, if you have Virginia representing you, you can be confident that you will be getting the best possible representation.

Virginia was unbelievably helpful . She made sure I fully understood every detail . I'm not familiar with legal terms and she had no problem taking the time to fully explain. I highly recommend her to anybody who needs legal representation.

Virginia was our articling student for about a year, and later was employed for several months as a lawyer with our firm. Ultimately we were sad when Virginia decided to leave us to start her own firm in Ottawa. I am confident in Virginia's abilities and know that she will provide Ottawa clients with excellent help with any criminal file.

I am very happy with the services provided to me by attorney Virginia Dolinska. This was my first time dealing with the legal system and I did not know what to do or who to turn to. Ms. Dolinska was recommended to me by a family member. My fears and anxieties were put to rest right away at my first appointment. I felt comfortable and she gave me great confidence. She explained everything that was going to happen and she was always responsive to my questions and concerns. She goes the distance for her client. Ms. Dolinska took the time to explain my options so I could weigh the pros and cons and come to a conclusion together for what was best for me. Ms. Dolinska is a person of integrity, dedicated and committed to her clients. She went above and beyond my expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend her to represent anyone who would require a criminal defense attorney. She certainly was an asset to my case.
