Here's the website: http://www.tcsparalegal.ca/

I found him extremely helpful, personable, and knowledgeable.
Thanks for the recommendation. Btw, did he fight your ticket for you in court?

Anyone else?

Good paralegal in Niagara Region?

Hey,

I got a speeding ticket in Niagara Region on my way to the Falls. Can someone recommend me a good paralegal that will fight my ticket? As I am located in Markham, I cannot make it to Niagara to fight my ticket.

I asked Redline (charged.ca), they do not do Niagara.

Thanks

Actually, can I use this in my defense. Arguing that if I did drive at 30kh/hr through a controlled intersection would be grounds for dangerous driving and the officer should have also given me a ticket for dangerous driving, which he did not, therefore I was traveling slower than 30km/hr?

I understand what you are saying.
But, any way to prove that 30km/hr is not an accurate estimation, as 30kh/hr sounds alot and I just want to create doubt that the estimation is wrong.

I've had lots of success with this...giving a side view speed estimate is a little harder to be accurate to within 5 km/h let's say, but there's a huge difference between 0 and 30 km/h. Was he watching your wheels under the other vehicle's? Was there noticeable acceleration / deceleration viewed by the officer? I'm thinking the officer won't have any problem getting his / her point across in court. FyreStorm, when you say "I've had lots of success with this" do you mean as a cop or prosecutor or defendant or paralegal? I am sorry I do not know your profession. Was he watching your w...

Visual estimation of speed from the side, inaccurate?

I got a Failing to Stop 136 (1)(A) ticket, in the officer's notes it says I "slowed to Approx 30km/h." In fact, I did stop as the officer's view was obstructed by another vehicle adjacent to him. Also he was perpendicular to me, I was driving Southbound and he was driving Eastbound at the intersection. From my research, when speed is visual estimated from the side, is not very accurate. Are there are any court cases, scientific research that say that visual estimation of speed from the side is inaccurate or laws that say just using visual estimation of one's speed is inadmissible? Th...

Do courts provide illustration materials?

Do the courts provide a big presentation pad and marker or a marker and board or any sort of device that I can use during my defense to illustrate to the Justice about my traffic violation?
Specifically at the York Region Court on 50 High Tech Road in Richmond Hill?

Thanks

If anybody wants to know, go to the office where you ask for a trial date.
For me it was 50 High Tech Road in Richmond Hill.

How to find if officer filed ticket on time?

I was just reading ticket combat's website and noticed that if the filing date is beyond seven days it is a fatal error, http://www.ticketcombat.com/offences/fatal.php

How do I go about to find out when my ticket was filed?
Btw, my offence happened in York Region and Provincial Offences Office is at 50 High Tech Road.

Thanks
