Areas of Practice
Immediate Roadside Sanctions
If you're pulled over and suspected of alcohol or drug impairment in Alberta, your license could be suspended on the spot— no blood or urine test required, just a mandatory roadside breath sample.
Under the Alberta Immediate Roadside Sanctions (IRS) program, you might face one of five sanctions, depending on your license type and screening results. You have only seven (7) calendar days to respond to and deal with an Immediate Roadside Sanction.
While not criminal in nature, an IRS is serious, and having knowledgeable lawyers to work with in your defence is crucial, especially with prior violations. Hadford Defence Group will move quickly to put you in a position to successfully defend against IRS sanctions. Our lawyers will help you to understand the path ahead of you, process your information, and assist you in getting started in mounting your defences. This includes gathering information to support your case and giving you the right referrals as needed.
If you’ve missed your 7-day window to appeal, you may be eligible for a late review. Know your rights and the law to navigate these situations effectively.  Call Hadford Defence Group to book a free consultation today.
