Just like a conviction for drunk driving, a conviction for drug impaired driving can have a serious and lasting effect on your life. It is important to be represented by experienced trial lawyers like Howard C. Cohen & Associates with a significant record of success in impaired driving cases involving drugs.

Our track record of success is based on decades of experience defending clients against impaired driving charges. We understand how to strategize your case by immediately obtaining police records and scrutinizing them. We examine whether you have a potential rights violation case and use technical experts to provide important evidence in your favour. Our aim is to ensure you have the best possible defence to fight the charges.

Highly Knowledgeable Defence Lawyers

Because of our experience defending clients charged with drug possession, drug trafficking, and reading toxicology reports and impaired driving cases, we are well-versed in the nature and effects of various drugs, from marijuana, ketamine, cocaine, heroin and prescription drugs, such as OxyContin.

This knowledge allows us to point out mistakes made by drug recognition experts/evaluators (DREs) who may try to draw mistaken conclusions about our clients’ state of sobriety, or render an opinion about what type of drug they may have been impaired by, based on observation of the client’s behaviour. And as we do with alcohol impairment cases, we will analyze police disclosure to ensure that authorities fulfilled their duties and responsibilities under the law.

Tougher Penalties for Impaired Driving Pertaining To Drugs

The province of Ontario implemented tougher penalties for impaired driving involving drugs. This can include an immediate license suspension, the possibility of a 90 day license suspension and vehicle impoundment. Due to the severe consequences associated with these charges, you need to contact a lawyer immediately.

The lawyers at Howard C. Cohen & Associates can intervene right away. Our long-standing experience defending clients against these types of charges enables us to provide you with a strategic plan. If we believe an improper procedure was followed we will strongly advocate for a reduction or withdrawal of the charges.
