Allow us to share a success story from our esteemed clientele. One of our clients was charged with driving under the influence of drugs, specifically cannabis. The police Facts Sheet indicated that our client had smoked cannabis in the early morning and subsequently drove later in the day, resulting in an accident that caused injuries. When stopped by the police, our client underwent a breath test, which returned a reading of 0.00. However, the police observed certain symptoms such as bloodshot eyes, dazed behavior, drowsiness, and slow speech, prompting them to inquire about our client's cannabis use. Our client admitted to using cannabis that morning.

To support our client's case, our solicitors obtained expert evidence from a psychologist, who concluded that the level of cannabis in our client's blood did not impair their driving ability. Based on this compelling evidence, we advised our client to plead not guilty and proceed to a hearing.

During the hearing at the Downing Centre Local Court, the prosecution presented expert evidence suggesting that our client's driving ability was influenced by THC. However, our solicitor countered this claim with our psychologist's report, which provided evidence to the contrary. The conflicting expert opinions introduced reasonable doubt into the matter.

Ultimately, Her Honour found our client not guilty, resulting in an excellent outcome achieved by our dedicated solicitors. This success story is just one example of the exceptional legal representation provided by LY Lawyers.

Another case worth mentioning involves a client who faced charges of driving with an illicit drug in their blood. This offense carries a six-month disqualification upon conviction. Moreover, our client held a provisional license and had their child in the vehicle at the time of the offense. Our solicitor argued that our client had smoked cannabis days before the incident and was unaware of the drug's prolonged presence in the blood, which can last up to six weeks. Additionally, medical evidence was presented, emphasizing our client's need to drive their child to medical appointments. Considering our client's good character and remorse, the court showed leniency and decided not to record a conviction. Consequently, our client received a bond under Section 10, resulting in no penalty or disqualification.
