When it comes to traffic violations in British Columbia, whether it’s a DUI, a traffic ticket or a prohibited driving charge, including Immediate Roadside Prohibition (IRP), it's important to understand that these situations can have serious and life-altering consequences, including fines, Driver Penalty Points, higher insurance rates, losing your driving privileges or even serving jail time.
When faced with these situations, it's crucial to understand your rights and seek the best legal representation and services like those offered by prominent criminal defence lawyer Kyla Lee at Acumen Law Corporation.
Renowned for her knowledge of the Immediate Roadside Prohibitions and highly regarded for her expertise in impaired driving law, Lee has garnered a respected reputation due to her impressive string of successes in courts and tribunals, including appearing as counsel across all levels of B.C. courts and as lead counsel at the Supreme Court of Canada.
Where expertise meets experience
Joining Acumen in 2010, Lee is a member of a team of experienced trial lawyers who are instrumental in challenging B.C.’s DUI and driving prohibition laws. To date, Lee herself has successfully appealed over 2,500 cases.
With a client-centred approach, she takes the time to understand clients’ unique situations and tailors her defence strategies accordingly. With years of experience, a deep understanding of traffic laws and the highest success rate of disputing IRP cases, Lee’s track record speaks to her ability to deliver results even in the most challenging cases.
Aside from her strategic prowess, Lee also supports her clients at every step, protecting their rights, minimizing the impact on their lives and helping them navigate the legal system with confidence.
"Beyond legal expertise, I understand the stress and anxiety that come with facing legal charges,” she says. “I am not just a lawyer. I am a dedicated advocate who will fight for the best possible outcome in every case."
Putting clients first
When faced with a traffic ticket, many’s first instinct is to pay rather than contest, thinking it’s the easier option. However, Lee claims taking responsibility can make things worse or more costly.
"For anything you're pulled over for and issued a ticket, those are definitely worth disputing," she explains.
Lee possesses a solid knowledge of the Motor Vehicle Act and understands an outcome in one area may impact a driver in another area. Her goal is to minimize these impacts, helping clients retain their driving privileges and avoid further legal consequences.
"When you're facing a criminal charge, a ticket or a driving prohibition, things can feel hopeless in the beginning," she says. "However, the vast majority of the cases are resolved favourably for our clients."
In an often hectic industry, Lee prides herself on being accessible to clients, aiming to respond within 24 hours.
"Our office is available by phone 24/7. Legal issues don’t wait, and neither do we. We are always available to address concerns, answer questions, and provide updates on the progress of each case."
