Drink driving is a charge. Not a verdict.

Charged with a drink driving offence in NSW? We look closely at how your charge was laid and how the test was carried out, and fight to protect your licence and your record.

Before anyone mentions a plea, we check the evidence.

We start with the police facts and how your breath or blood test was carried out. If there is a defence available, we find it and run it.

If you decide to plead guilty, we prepare you for court and present your circumstances in the strongest possible light, with your licence and your livelihood in mind.

Questions people ask us at 3am.

Short answers here. Your free evaluation gives you the full picture.

Will I lose my licence?

Most drink driving offences carry a period of licence disqualification, but how long depends on the reading, your driving record and the outcome in court. We will tell you where you stand at your free evaluation.

Do I have to go to court?

If you have received a Court Attendance Notice, you need to attend court on the date shown. We can appear with you and speak on your behalf.

Should I just plead guilty?

Not before getting advice. There may be problems with how the test was done or how the charge was laid. We review the evidence first, then advise you on your plea.

How much will it cost?

We explain our fees up front after your free evaluation, and offer flexible payment plans.
