Our Sydney solicitors apply the same degree of expertise, diligence and determination to every one of the offences in Sydney that we defend, whether a ‘major traffic offence’ (MTO) that attracts a custodial sentence (e.g. dangerous operation, driving under the influence of alcohol or other drug (‘dui’), negligent driving occasioning death or GBH, operating a vehicle while disqualified/suspended/cancelled) – to less serious matters such as infringements that attract a maximum penalty of a fine and demerit points. A conviction for a MTO results in mandatory licence disqualification.
We apply the same expertise to LICENCE APPEALS and at applications to quash/remove Habitual Offender Declarations (HODs).
Our Sydney solicitors apply the same degree of expertise, diligence and determination to every one of the offences in Sydney that we defend, whether a ‘major traffic offence’ (MTO) that attracts a custodial sentence (e.g. dangerous operation, driving under the influence of alcohol or other drug (‘DUI’), negligent driving occasioning death or GBH, operating a vehicle while disqualified/suspended/cancelled) – or less serious matters such as infringements that attract a maximum penalty of a fine and demerit points. A conviction for an MTO results in mandatory licence disqualification.
If a driver has convictions for three MTOs in five years, Roads and Maritime Services disqualifies the driver from holding a licence for five years under a Habitual Traffic Offender Declaration (HTOD), in addition to any period of licence disqualification ordered by the court. The solicitors at our office are expert at applications to the Local Court to have HTOD records quashed.
Our lawyers have an impressive record in having charges dismissed at hearing in the Local Court, and at trial in the District Court and Supreme Court.
We have a similar record of success in having charges dismissed under section 10 of the sentencing act so that clients avoid a conviction and licence disqualification.
You can trust us to use our skill, knowledge and expertise to analyse the facts and the applicable law to obtain the best possible outcome for you.
Our offence lawyers also have an impressive record in relation to Traffic Law conviction and severity appeals from the Local Court to the District Court.
