Whether facing an alcohol-related or drug-related DUI charge, having a skilled lawyer can make a critical difference in the outcome. At LZZ Defence, we employ specific defence strategies tailored to the type of charge you are facing:

  1. Challenging Test Accuracy

For alcohol-related DUIs, we may question the calibration and accuracy of the breathalyzer used, particularly if it was improperly administered or maintained. In drug-related cases, we scrutinize the reliability of field sobriety and drug tests, as well as the procedures used by police officers to collect samples.

  1. Questioning Police Procedure

All DUI arrests must follow strict legal protocols. If police failed to follow proper procedures — such as not informing you of your right to a lawyer — this could weaken the case against you. LZZ Defence will carefully review all steps taken during your arrest to identify any procedural errors.

  1. Assessing SFST Validity in Drug DUI Cases

Drug-impaired driving cases often rely on SFSTs, which can be subjective and influenced by factors like fatigue, anxiety, or medical conditions. We challenge the validity of these tests by highlighting alternative explanations for the observed behaviors.

  1. Providing Evidence of Medical Conditions

In some cases, prescription medications or certain medical conditions may be mistaken for impairment. If applicable, LZZ Defence will work with medical professionals to provide evidence that you were not impaired due to illegal substances or misuse of medication.

  1. Negotiating for Reduced Charges

When possible, we work to negotiate lesser charges, such as careless driving pursuant to the Highway Traffic Act, to minimize the impact of a DUI charge on your life. Our goal is to find the best resolution while protecting your future.
