Tickets We Handle
Tickets
Careless driving charge? Let's straighten your path. Whether you are driving a personal vehicle or a commercial motor vehicle, we understand the importance of protecting your record from demerit and CVOR points.
Highway Traffic Act and Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act:
We handle all traffic-related offences including speeding, careless driving, distracted driving, driving while suspended, following too closely, and more.
Commercial Vehicle Offences (MTO)
The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) primarily focuses on commercial vehicles and their safety compliance. While MTO doesn't directly issue charges to personal vehicle drivers, they regularly contact our office regarding commercial vehicle violations, a significant part of our daily practice.
Commercial violations we handle include:
- Logbook offences
- Equipment defects (major and minor)
- Hours of service breaches
- Etc.
For commercial motor vehicles, CVOR points affect the company rather than just the driver, impacting your company's compliance profile and operating authority.
MNR Charges (Wildlife & Conservation Offences)
We also defend all charges under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act and the Off-Road Vehicles Act. These wildlife and conservation offences are handled in the same Provincial Offences Court using the same process as traffic tickets.
Other Charges We Handle
Cannabis Control Act :
Violations including possession limits and public consumption.
Liquor Licence Act :
Charges such as public intoxication and open container offences
Municipal Matters:
Bylaw infractions including noise complaints, property standard violations, zoning disputes, and parking enforcement
