About
Mike Beckett is a criminal defence and trial lawyer practicing out of British Columbia’s Lower Mainland. He defends individuals from all walks of life who are facing a wide variety of criminal and quasi-criminal charges. Mike has also advised entrepreneurs in the medicinal marijuana and online gambling industries to help them ensure that their business practices comply with the law. Mike has experience before all levels of court in British Columbia, including Provincial Court, the Supreme Court, and the Court of Appeal. A Judge recently made the following comments about Mr. Beckett in a court ruling in late 2020 … “It is clear to me that counsel have given this matter a great deal of consideration, as has [client name]. I am not going to repeat the content of the excellent oral submissions made this morning, or Mr. Beckett’s extensive and helpful written sentencing brief delivered earlier, most or perhaps all of which the Crown takes no issue with.” I thought there was no way out and I would end up with a permanent record that would ruin my career. Mike Beckett worked with me step by step through the legal process that eventually cleared me of all charges. Since then, my life has literally done a 180 degree turn for the best. I cannot thank Mike enough.W.
