Traffic Law

About traffic law.

Our barristers are experienced in defending New Zealand traffic law cases brought under the Land Transport Act 1998 with a particular focus on drink driving offences (excess breath/blood alcohol), careless, dangerous or reckless driving cases and driver licencing issues.

At High Street law, we have a proven track record of success in representing people charged with drink driving offences. Drink driving is treated seriously in New Zealand. The consequences of having excess breath or blood alcohol levels whilst driving can be severe. A conviction can affect your current and future employment opportunities, your mobility, your finances, your criminal record, your insurance premiums, and possibly your freedom.

Penalties can vary for a traffic conviction from a fine and disqualification to a lengthy period of imprisonment. Our aim is to get the best possible outcome and can also assist in obtaining a limited licence if a disqualification is imposed.
​
Being charged with a drink driving offence can be a very traumatic experience. We understand that for a lot of people it is their first taste of the criminal justice system and they have no idea what is likely to occur when they attend Court. We provide our clients with a sense of security and guides them through the Court process in a calm, professional and measured manner.
