Canon Law Advocacy and Representation

As the principal consultant of Hamilton-Derrom Consulting, I assist individual and corporate clients in navigating Roman Catholic canonical processes. My work emphasizes careful analysis, professional judgment, and ethical advocacy within ecclesiastical procedures.

Areas of Support

  • Advocacy and strategic counsel regarding canonical options and process navigation

  • Judicial representation (where permitted and appropriate)

  • Canonical brief writing and supporting legal analysis

  • Procedural guidance and preparation for canonical steps and documentation

What You Can Expect

  • Clear explanation of options, process, and likely next steps (in plain language)

  • Thorough legal reasoning grounded in canon law and relevant norms

  • Professional, ethical representation focused on integrity and client care

A Practical Note on Intake

Because canonical matters can involve sensitive information, I recommend starting with a general description of the situation. If representation is appropriate, I will follow up to gather details in a more secure and structured way.

How I Work

Step 1: Initial Contact

You share a brief description of your situation and the outcome you are seeking (including deadlines).

Step 2: Clarifying Conversation

Together, you and I confirm scope, urgency, and whether I am the right fit for the work.

Step 3: Engagement and Next Steps

If we proceed, I will outline deliverables, timelines, and the best path forward.

Let’s discuss your situation.
