Why I Choose Criminal Law

Why I Choose Criminal Law

Education

Call to the Bar 2017
J.D., University of Ottawa, 2016
B.A., (Honours Double Major) Criminology & History, University of Ottawa, 2013

I joined Aitken Robertson in 2016 after graduating with a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Ottawa. My articling principal was Richard Aitken. Before entering law school I earned an Honors Bachelor of Social Science (double major) degree in Criminology and History.

My advocacy style is vigorous defence above all. As a young child I immigrated to Canada from Eastern Europe; a difficult journey with great challenges. I learned how to stay persistent and work extremely hard on what is important to me. I came to know first-hand when all odds are against you. As a criminal defence counsel, I take pride knowing my clients are confident in me and in the quality of service I provide.

My practice is exclusively restricted to criminal law. I represent individuals charged with all criminal offences within Ontario.

I am looking forward to working with you.

Please note: Virginia Dolinska is practising in affiliation with Aitken Robertson Professional Corporation.

Virginia Dolinska is a lawyer and is licensed by the Law Society of Ontario.

I am very pleased with Virginias knowledge and guidance. She takes the time to thoroughly explain the process, expectations and potential outcomes. Conversing with her, she is straight forward and honest. As uncomfortable as this process is, Virginia made it easier on myself and in turn, my family.

Was almost done my court matters and was charged with a breach of conditional sentence which could mean I could be sent to jail to finish the remainder of my sentence. I had Lavinia who worked very hard and got me an amazing deal which meant only paying a fine and no time. I’m very happy with her services and recommend the team.

The team at Aitken Robertson are professional and understanding. I hired Richard after my 2 DUI Charge in less than 10 years...so you can imagine I was in some serious trouble. Richards team looked at every aspect and angle of my case and where able to get the charge reduced down to careless driving without even going to trial. We where scheduled for a 2 day trial but like Richard said the Crown Blinked....... Thanks again everyone :)

Mr Cardy is an amazing legal representative and person. Yes Amazing. I was facing a challenging trial do too complicated traffic charges. After getting to speak with Mr Cardy he alleviated alot of stress and concern that burdened me for 1 year. He provided valuable knowledge and was quite intelligent and that eased my stress of the approaching Trial Court Date . He provided an abundance of research and paperwork as I was doing the same but he just had that intelligent edge and legal insight that was confidence building. He was very kind and a pleasure too speak with and very personable. On my court Date Mr Cardy spoke with the crown attorney and all Charges were dropped. I did not even enter the courtroom . Mr Cardy is truly amazing legal representative and great person from our interaction. I cant thank him enough and highly recommend acquiring him as Legal Counsel.
