Remember that impaired driving laws apply equally to drugs (cannabis, prescription medication, illegal substances) as they do to alcohol.

Police Checkstops test for drug impairment using oral fluid screeners and other police-issued testing methods.

If you were charged with drug-impaired driving, your defence requires unique legal and scientific knowledge.

A criminal DUI conviction in Canada makes you criminally inadmissible to the United States.

This means even a single conviction can permanently restrict your ability to travel south of the border for business or pleasure.

We fight your criminal charge not just for your license, but to protect your future travel freedom.

For charges incurred just before Christmas, the 7-day IRS appeal deadline may have already passed. If you missed the window, all is not lost!

We can apply for a late review to challenge the penalty, but this requires proving exceptional circumstances. Don't assume the charge is final!

McGlashan and Company can assess your case and fight for your chance to appeal.

This financial disaster can happen instantly and ruin the holidays. Brian McGlashan focuses on reducing or eliminating these costs by challenging the charges at the administrative and criminal levels.

Protect your finances and protect your freedom with McGlashan & Company by your side this holiday season!

You don't have to be 'over the limit' (0.08) to lose your vehicle and licence.

The IRS: WARN penalty (BAC between 0.05 and 0.079) is common during the holidays, resulting in immediate 3-day suspensions, vehicle seizure, and heavy fines.

Escalating penalties for a second or third warning offence can be swift and painful. If you received an IRS: WARN on your way home, contact Brian McGlashan immediately to challenge the sanction.

December is the busiest month for police enforcement.

The Holiday Checkstop Campaign is active in Edmonton and across Alberta, meaning every lawful stop can lead to a breath test (Mandatory Alcohol Screening).

If you are pulled over after a holiday party, the risk of a severe IRS penalty or criminal DUI charge is higher than ever.

Don't risk your licence and your future for one night out. Give Brian McGlashan a call to ensure you receive proper legal representation.
