Regina DUI Lawyer

Make no mistake. If you are facing impaired driving or driving at or over 08 charges anywhere in Canada, you’re in serious trouble with potentially life-changing consequences.

Here in Canada, we have some of the harshest drink-driving laws in the western world. Accepting guilt and a lifelong criminal record should not be an option.

You have the right to defend yourself and, besides, charges are often erroneously filed by law enforcement.

Alan Pearse has made it his mission to defend drivers accused of DUI offences around Canada.

If you are facing a charge of impaired driving, driving at or over 08, or refusal to provide a breath sample in Regina, he is ready to take your call at 1-306-850-3997.

Who is Alan Pearse?

Alan Pearse wrote the book on impaired driving in Canada. Literally.

He is the author of the Guide to Breathalyzer Certificates in Canada, published by Canada Law Book.

He also publishes the Alan Pearse Impaired Driving Newsletter, which offers technical analysis on impaired driving topics and is frequently called on to lecture to both practicing lawyers and law students on DUI law.

As an impaired driving lawyer practicing since 2000, Alan has handled several thousands of cases defending drivers throughout Canada accused of alcohol or drug-related traffic offences. That’s all he does. Besides a little pro bono work, it’s 100% DUI litigation.

He knows how technical these types of cases can become and how aggressively we need to pursue the truth. There’s practically nothing about breathalyzer equipment, roadside sobriety tests, chemical tests or Charter rights that Alan has not seen before.

That’s why his track record speaks for itself.

Services

Wherever you’re based, it is rarely a good decision to simply accept your impaired driving charge and think that you will get away with a fine – especially if it is not your first offence.

Even if you escape jail time, the lifelong criminal record you will be saddled with can make life difficult in many areas in the future – employment, travel, immigration, insurance.

Alan will defend you from the following charges:

Impaired driving

Under the Criminal Code’s impaired driving laws, you do not need to be over the legal limit to be charged with a criminal offence.

In some provinces, you can even land an immediate roadside sanction (license suspension) if a police officer suspects you are impaired by alcohol or drugs to any degree.

Because of the highly interpretive nature of these offences, it is important to get legal assistance from an experienced DUI lawyer like Alan Pearse.

Driving at or Over 08

Driving over 0.08 (also called “over 80”) is when you are accused of having over 80 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood in your system.

Remember, you do not need to appear to be drunk to be charged with this serious criminal offence.

However, the equipment used to measure blood alcohol concentration (or the level of prohibited drugs in drivers’ systems) is often faulty or poorly calibrated. Alan Pearse has years of experience in calling into doubt the evidence presented by the prosecution in such cases.

Refusal or failure to provide a sample

It still surprises some drivers that if they are stopped by traffic police in Canada, refusing or being unable to provide a breath sample on demand from a police officer is illegal. They can still be charged even if they have not had a drop to drink.

Furthermore, the penalties are just as harsh as if they were over the legal limit.

There are often good reasons why drivers are unable or unwilling to provide a breath sample and these can often be used in your defence.

Great experience and would highly recommend Alan. Never had to set foot in a courtroom. Alan and his team got me off of all my charges with no record. Great experience, would recommend to anyone. Very professional, worth every dollar.

Alan was very helpful in defending my case under the new Alberta IRS regulations. He was very honest, straightforward forward and helpful to answer anything I needed to have answered. He got me out of a very tight spot in my life and could not have asked for a better lawyer. Thank you!!!!!

F.S.

I found myself in a nightmare situation. Contacted Alan immediately. Put my total trust in his hands, and he exceeded all of my expectations. I paid for a first-class, well-prepared attorney who knew the best way to handle a complicated DUI, and that is what I got. I believe I got the best and now have my life back. Thank you, Alan.

D.M.

I’m very pleased with how my case was handled. All the questions were answered and everything was explained in great detail along the way. Would highly recommend Alan to anyone looking to get the best possible results.

P.W.

I hired Alan a few days after the incident requiring legal help. I was quite upset about what had happened, and how I was treated by the police involved. My case was not normal, as I wasn’t driving so I had refused a breathalyzer, and the police tried to make everything as bad as they could for me. I had a trial date set, but Alan had several times told me how odd some of the things in my case were and how ridiculous the documents were that were handed to him by the Crown. Then one day he told me he needed to see me and he informed me all charges are dropped and that I wouldn’t be setting foot in a courtroom. I am ecstatic with the results. I recommend him. He is a great lawyer and got back to me anytime I needed an update or wasn’t sure about something.
