With over 35 years practicing criminal law under my belt, I not only continue to handle my cases but I assist the rest of my team with their cases daily. I have focused much of my practice on drinking and driving offences and I am so passionate about this field of law that I own my own Intoxilyzer 8000TM, the instrument used by Ontario police for testing blood alcohol levels. Originally, my criminal practice mainly handled sex assault and DUI cases. As the years went by, my practice increasingly focused on DUI defence and continues to do so today. I came to learn that most of the people who were charged were good people who simply made some bad mistakes. Often, they had no intention of driving after drinking, but certain circumstances overtook them. It didn’t help that our governments and courts have greatly eroded potential DUI defences. Defences that were common 20 years ago, are simply no longer allowed. Some of these changes even fly in the face of good science.
