The Impairing Driving / DUI Charges We Help You Fight

Impaired driving is a very complicated charge because it includes many technical defences and constitutional issues. Collectively known as Driving Under the Influence (DUI), it includes:

Impaired Driving – operating a vehicle while your ability is affected by alcohol or drugs.

“Over 80” Blood Alcohol Concentration – having a blood alcohol concentration over 80 mg of alcohol per 100 mL of blood.

Refusing to Provide a Breath Sample – failing or refusing to comply with a lawful demand for a roadside or breathalyzer (intoxilyzer) test.

Impaired Care or Control – being in care or control of a vehicle while impaired, even if you’re not driving.

Drug-Impaired Driving – operating a vehicle while impaired by cannabis or other drugs.

DUI Involving an Accident or Injury – impaired driving that leads to a serious collision, causes bodily harm or death.

Repeat DUI Offences – defending individuals charged with multiple DUI-related offences.

Novice and Young Driver DUI Charges – defending G1/G2 drivers and those under 21 facing zero-tolerance alcohol or drug violations.

“I retained Mike Kruse to represent me on a DUI charge. This was my second offence. He and his team guided me throughout the entire process. They would call me with progress reports and then send me emails going over what we talked about on the phone. I highly recommend him. Fingers crossed I never need a lawyer again, but if I do I will not hesitate to hire him again.”

“I was in trouble, Big Trouble! I was charged by the London O.P.P. with impaired and failure to provide. I was not impaired, and in my opinion, treated unfairly by police. I contacted Kruse Law in London, and was put in touch with Mr. Karl Toews. In the first few minutes of our conversation, it was obvious that Mr. Toews was an expert. I did hire Mr. Toews and we went to trial. Police are like anyone else they make mistakes. Mr. Toews spotted those mistakes, and defended my rights. Our result was NOT GUILTY on both charges. This was not an easy case and the odds were not in our favour. Karl Toews and Kruse Law saved my hide, and I will forever be grateful!”

“Kruse Law helped me in one of the most difficult times of my life. I would highly recommend this firm if you have been charged with a DUI. Karl and Jennifer were very diligent and professional when dealing with my matter. As a young person, the criminal nature of a DUI would have affected my future job prospects. Karl was able to have my charge withdrawn with NO criminal record. Although it took some time, it was certainly worth it. Thank you Michael Kruse, Karl and Jennifer!”

“I had been charged with a DUI when I had my first meeting with Karl Toews in London. At the end of that first meeting Karl told me he could not promise anything until he saw all the evidence but what he expected would happen based on our conversation. Eight months later due to the pandemic and it all worked out exactly as he said it would. DUI charges were dropped. I found Karl personally to be a very warm and empathic person to speak with. Should I ever need a lawyer again then I would not think of using anyone else other than Karl. This entire firm does a great job.”
