At Chadi & Ibrahim LLP, our lawyers have been protecting the rights of individuals charged with impaired driving in Edmonton and across Alberta. If you have been stopped for impaired driving, it is in your best interest to seek immediate legal counsel.

Impaired driving defence in Edmonton

Impaired driving laws are complex and constantly evolving. We defend impaired driving, over 80 and refusal charges, as well as other driving offences, from our office in downtown Edmonton. It is critical to speak with an experienced Edmonton DUI lawyer immediately.

What to do after a stop

At the time of the stop, do your best to remain calm and always be respectful toward police officers. Police must have a valid reason for stopping you in the first place; if your legal rights were violated, associated penalties may be withdrawn. If you received a Notice of Administrative Penalty, you only have 7 days to act — and if you have missed that deadline, there may still be a way to request a late review. Contact us immediately for a confidential consultation about your case.

Charged with impaired driving in Edmonton? Key facts

From Alberta DUI Lawyers: most impaired driving stops in Alberta start with an Immediate Roadside Sanction (IRS) under the Traffic Safety Act, and police can also lay Criminal Code charges. An IRS FAIL — for a reading of 0.08 or more, or for refusing a breath or drug demand — brings a 90-day licence suspension, a 30-day vehicle seizure and a $1,000 fine on a first occurrence, followed by a longer suspension during which you can drive only with an ignition interlock. You have only 7 days to ask SafeRoads Alberta for a review, so speak with a lawyer right away. Read our Alberta impaired driving laws guide for more.
