Aruin Maini is one of the best criminal defence lawyers in Toronto, he used the facts of my case to prove that I was it guilty of the charges against me. With Aruin Maini you get solid work on all fronts, he is very very knowledgeable and takes the time to really understand and connect with his clients.

Arun Maini is a very good lawyer. I am very satisfied with his service and I highly recommend him. I was very stressed and nervous, as the prosecutor on my case at the start was very nasty, vicious and dishonest. Arun knew how to combat that in court, and he helped me gain the desired outcome in the end. He did a fantastic job.

Thank god I got the pleasure of meeting Arun,Maini I was referred to him from a friend who had nothing but good things to say about him. I later thank them both.
