The Benefit of Being Proactive in Addressing Your Traffic Ticket 

When it comes to traffic offences, some defendants opt to plead guilty to their charges without fully understanding the potential consequences. These consequences can involve demerit points, fines, license suspensions, increased insurance premiums, and in some cases, even imprisonment, if convicted.

Apart from the standard penalties outlined in the Highway Traffic Act, newly licensed drivers, like those holding G1 or G2 licenses, are also susceptible to ‘escalated sanctions’ for infractions entailing 4 or more demerit points. These additional penalties range from license suspension to complete revocation.

After you’ve been convicted by the court due to a guilty plea to careless driving, for example, attempting to reverse these convictions for traffic violations is a costly legal pursuit. Typically, this endeavour yields less favourable outcomes compared to addressing the matter appropriately before the conviction occurs. 

 

Professional Service From an Experienced Traffic Ticket Team

For almost all cases dealing with driving violations we can provide you with a relatively low, flat rate cost for the legal work involved so that you can make an informed decision about the costs and benefits of contesting your case at court. 

The majority of cases we assist clients with can be resolved in advance of trial by meeting with the Prosecutor on their behalf. Our paralegals will file for a release of the evidence that will be held against you at trial, and review it with the Prosecutor at an early resolution meeting.

Reliable Legal Assistance – Defending a Range of Traffic Offences

When possible, our primary objective is to pursue the withdrawal of any charges brought against you. This is achieved by assessing the legal merits of the Prosecutor’s case. If the option of withdrawal isn’t viable, our approach shifts to negotiation with your best interests in mind. We aim to lessen either the quantity or severity of the charges you’re confronted with, along with the corresponding penalties. If a satisfactory agreement cannot be reached through negotiation, you gain the advantage of having a licensed paralegal advocate for you during the trial process.

Our professional team assists clients, like you, with simple charges such as speeding, operating a motor vehicle with no license, disobeying a stop sign, failing to properly wear a seatbelt, or failure to stop at an amber / red light. We can also provide assistance with more serious charges under the Highway Traffic Act or the Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, such as careless driving, operating a motor vehicle without insurance, driving under suspension, fail to remain at the scene of a collision, stunt driving/race motor vehicle, fail to stop for school bus, or provide false information to a police officer or police officers. 

We also assist commercial motor vehicle drivers with MTO offences, however, our traffic lawyers and paralegals cannot provide assistance with serious criminal code violations.
