Representation for Highway Traffic Act tickets, demerit point suspensions, and driver's licence appeals in Manitoba.
Neil represents drivers facing a range of Highway Traffic Act matters, including:
Simply paying a ticket is treated as a guilty plea and adds points to your record — which can snowball into a suspension that affects your ability to work or drive for a living. Fighting a ticket, or appealing a suspension once it's issued, can sometimes avoid that outcome or reduce its impact.
Neil reviews the circumstances of the ticket or suspension, advises on the realistic options, and represents drivers through the court process or the applicable appeal.
Yes. Paying a ticket is treated as an admission of guilt and adds demerit points to your record, which can lead to a suspension if points accumulate.
No. A ticket is a charge under the Highway Traffic Act heard before the courts, while a demerit point suspension is an administrative action taken separately by Manitoba Public Insurance once points accumulate.
