Cyber crime is on the rise, and law enforcement officials are dedicated to apprehending any and all alleged criminals tied to Internet misconduct. However, as hacking capabilities become more prevalent and cyber crimes more technical, it is not uncommon for police to isolate and target the wrong individual, even if the criminal conduct appears to derive from his or her Internet Protocol (IP) address. Believe it or not, our office has successfully defended against cyber crime charges by showing that sophisticated hackers can commit crimes remotely using a wireless network, thereby incriminating innocent bystanders in the process. If you are facing an Internet or computer crime charge—or believe you may be under investigation—contact a Toronto Area cyber crime lawyer right away. The sooner you contact our office for representation, the better we can protect you as we can also help ensure the police follow proper protocol in searching your property and hard drives.
