Hi Silvia,
I’d like to thank you for all that you did for me at the hearing, and for all the immense work you did leading up to that day.
This was the best case scenario by far, and we would literally not be here if it wasn’t for you. Your work as an advocate I think often goes misunderstood, and watching this process (albeit from the “wrong” side) was so eye opening. If it wasn’t for the fact that my immediate future was in the balance, I might have actually said it was very entertaining and interesting to watch you work (it was).
So apologies if I seemed dazed after the hearing – I think I was just trying to process what had just occurred, and this is my official thank you for all that you’ve done…Once again – thank you so much.
Best regards,

I had the absolute privilege of being represented by Jennifer Currie in fighting off an IRP that was issued to me, and I can say with complete confidence that she’s one of the finest lawyers you could ever have in your corner.
From the very start, Jennifer stood by me like a rock. Our case faced more than a few hurdles — from contesting a sworn police disclosure report that included a flawed version of what actually transpired the night of the incident to a one-month delay after we filed the appeal because Road Safety BC went on strike. Yet, she never once lost focus or drive. Through countless phone calls, assessments, and re-assessments, Jennifer drilled into every single detail of my case with precision and purpose.
Jennifer is sharp, fiercely passionate, and exceptionally thorough. Having dealt with lawyers before on various civil matters, I can say this with experience: there’s often a point where you are directly or indirectly reminded that you’re stretching the scope of work. That moment never came with Jennifer. She genuinely cares, gives her all, and gets the job done.
If you’re facing an IRP or even think your chances are slim, Jennifer Currie is the person you want on your side in the Lower Mainland. She’s simply outstanding.

I had a first-class experience working with one of the top legal teams, Silvia Badea at Stern Shapray Criminal Lawyers in Surrey, B.C. My matter involved a traffic ticket that had been unfairly issued by an RCMP officer in North Vancouver in 2025.
From the very beginning, Silvia was extremely professional, communicative, and clearly knowledgeable about the Canadian legal system. She handled my case swiftly and efficiently, keeping me informed at every step by email, text, and in person. Thanks to her thoroughness and legal expertise, the outcome was an overwhelming win.
Thank you to Stern Shapray Criminal Lawyers, and especially to Silvia Badea, for your outstanding representation.
