For over 35 years Patrick Fagan has devoted his professional life to the defence of persons charged with criminal offences.

Patrick Fagan has secured verdicts of NOT guilty in a number of high-profile cases and has an established record of success. At the risk of stating the abundantly obvious, there is a big difference between “defending” a high-profile case (indeed, any case) and actually “winning”.

Patrick Fagan’s high-profile cases include a couple of the largest drug seizures in the history of Alberta… (Regina vs. Cortez) & Regina vs. GGG, the Chestermere Youth Murder Case, Calgary Double Homicide, the Calgary Fire Fighter Escort Agency Case, the Gun-Toting Hero Case, the Good Samaritan Case, Regina vs. Taylor 2014 SCC 50, and the British Columbia Property Trafficking Case.
