Lawyers’ Possible Defences For A Drug Driving Offence In Adelaide

There are two types of drug driving offences our lawyers in Adelaide can expertly represent. These are driving with prescribed drugs and under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

As a result of this offence, you will incur an on the spot fine along with 4 demerit points. You will also be liable for licence disqualification for 3 months. While this is mandatory, our lawyers can gather evidence for possible defences such as:

  1. You’re not the driver.
  2. Testing apparatus used is defective.
  3. You’re unaware of drug consumption.
  4. Invalidity of the test due to time discrepancy.
  5. Police did not comply with their legal obligations.

If you’re proven guilty, we will trifle the application or file for an application for a reduction of demerit points. Moreover, it is still possible to reduce the imposed penalty if we successfully prove that the offence was trifling.

Testimonials

My first time going to see a Lawyer, I was really nervous and scared as I have never been in trouble before. Tim helped me straight away and it was clear that he knew exactly what he was doing. Would recommend especially if you aren’t so sure about the law and its your first time.

Amy M

Thanks for all your help Tim. I am always getting myself into a little trouble here and there but Tim never makes me feel bad. Because I have a bit of criminal history some lawyers have said my case it too difficult. Every time I’ve gone to Tim he has always sorted it out and found the best outcome for me and also for my family.

Paul R

McGrath lawyers, the place to go for all your matters! I had a few traffic offences tied up in some criminal charges. The guys there were able to sort out all of them and did a great job for me at it too!

Roger E

Thanks to the people at McGrath lawyers for helping my dad out. English isn’t his first language so it was important to find a lawyer who was very clear in his directions and was able to provide honest representation. Sorted my dad’s issue out with minimal impact on his life especially with his work.

David P

So grateful for all the help that McGrath lawyers was able to provide me with. Tim handled my case and upon first meeting it was immediately evident that he is highly knowledgeable and experienced in his field. His ability to be both professional yet also caring shows that this is much more than a job to him. Tim is very fair, honest and most importantly not judgemental. I will only ever trust Tim to handle all of my matters, would recommend 100%!
