Impaired Driving / Over 80

Our Law offices represents all individuals charged with Drinking and Driving related offenses. In particular we successfully defend all Impaired Driving charges, Over 80 charges, Refuse Approved Road Side Screening devices and Refuse Breathalyzer charges and Dangerous Driving charges. This area of the law is complicated and involves and requires detailed preparation to properly secure acquittals by our Experienced Lawyers.

Your Defense

There are numerous technical defenses including Evidence to the contrary. The defense now, based on recent criminal code amendments relies on potential evidence to show that the breathalyzer instrument malfunctioned or that the breathalyzer operator may have made mistakes while using the instrument.

Another viable defense is based on the Lack of Reasonable and probable grounds to base the initial stop or the Crown's failure to bring the matter to trial within a reasonable time (11)B.

Other possible defenses include The Right to Counsel defense. Persons charged are entitled to speak to Counsel of choice prior to submitting to the breathalyzer machine and depending on certain times may be entitled to speak to a lawyer before the road side test is administered. These potential defenses are only recognized after careful review of the police notes and detailed interviews with our clients.

Additionally, as in any criminal prosecution it is the Crown Attorney that must satisfy the Court of the Guilt of the Accused beyond all reasonable doubt. In this area of law technical defenses based on improper police and court paperwork, calibration records, retesting procedures and implementation requirements are all possible and fertile grounds for potential defenses.

Avoid the Consequences

If you have been charged with a Drinking and Driving offense the only way to AVOID the severe consequences of being brandished with a Criminal Record, losing your license for at least one year, jail in some cases and excessive insurance is to retain experienced, skilled counsel to vigorously defend your rights, advance any and all defenses and secure the absolute best chance of an acquittal.
