Traffic tickets
Our areas of practice

Our three-step approach
If contesting the ticket is justified, we open your file and proceed with key steps, including:
-
- Filing a plea of not guilty
- Court appearance and disclosure request
- Full analysis of your statement
- Preservation of essential evidence for your defense
- Establishment of a list of potential witnesses
- Explanation of the upcoming judicial process
We handle all court procedures for you. In most cases, you won’t even have to appear in court. We meticulously analyze the evidence, taking into account the applicable law, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and the protocols of the École nationale de police. We will propose tailor-made defense strategies and explain the benefits of each option so you can make an informed decision.
Once the strategy is defined, we implement it. This may include :
-
- Going to trial to contest the ticket
- Negotiating a reduction of charges
- Negotiating a more favorable reduced sentence
- Amending the charge to avoid administrative consequences
- Sentencing hearing to highlight mitigating factors
