“I just want this over with.”
“Maybe pleading guilty is the easiest option.”

Stop.

Once you plead guilty, the damage is often done — and very hard to undo.

You may have more options than you think.


 

Before you make any decision, talk to an experienced DUI lawyer in Windsor like Bobby Russon.
You may have more options than you think.

Before you give up your defence, make sure you understand what a conviction could really cost — from penalties for impaired driving that can impact your job, travel, and future, to the reality that hiring a lawyer is often more affordable than you think. You may even find your charge can be withdrawn, dismissed, or reduced through a plea bargain. And make sure you understand why representing yourself is rarely a good idea.

You Are Presumed Innocent

And the Crown Must Prove Its Case

"Beyond a Reasonable Doubt"

Being charged does not mean you'll be convicted.
The police and Crown must prove:

  • That your rights weren’t violated

  • That the evidence is legally obtained and reliable

  • That the breath or blood test was administered properly

  • That the case meets every standard of law

๐Ÿ‘‰ If they can’t prove all of that — you should not be convicted.


Failed a Breath Test? You May Still Have a Defence

Many people plead guilty just because they blew over. But breathalyzer and roadside tests:

  • Must follow strict procedures

  • Can produce false or unreliable readings

  • Are often challenged successfully by skilled defence lawyers

Bobby Russon knows how to pick apart test results — and has done it for others just like you.


๐Ÿ” Real Example: (He Pled Too Early — and Paid the Price)

A man was charged with DUI after failing a breath test. He tried to defend himself and requested police disclosure, which seemed fine at first glance. Feeling hopeless, he pled guilty at his first court date — without getting legal advice. Months later, he learned the breathalyzer machine hadn’t been properly calibrated — a critical issue that was buried in the disclosure he had overlooked. If he had waited and spoken to a lawyer, he could have fought the charge and kept his record clean.

A good DUI lawyer knows what to look for — and when not to rush.


๐Ÿ’ฌ What People Say: (I Almost Pleaded Guilty — I'm Glad I Didn’t)

“I was ready to plead guilty and get it over with. But something told me to call a lawyer first. Bobby Russon reviewed my case, found a problem with how the test was done, and got the charge dropped. I would’ve ruined my life if I hadn’t made that call.”

A real defence can change your entire future.


Administrative Penalties Move Fast — You Must Too

In Provinces like Alberta and British Columbia, most DUI cases fall under Immediate Roadside Sanctions (IRS) or IRPs.

๐Ÿ“ You may only have 7 days to appeal.
Miss the window, and you could lose your licence without ever seeing a judge.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Call Bobby Russon at (519) 792-9391 today — before your time runs out.


 


What’s at Stake If You Plead Guilty?

Pleading guilty too quickly can cost you far more than you think.
You might assume you’re saving time or money — but the long-term consequences often outweigh the short-term relief.

Before you give up your defence, make sure you understand the true cost of a conviction, beyond legal fees:  the possible [penalties for impaired driving], and whether your charge could be [withdrawn, dismissed, or reduced through a plea bargain].

What feels like an open-and-shut case might not be. Evidence can be flawed. Procedures can be challenged.
And once you plead guilty — it’s often too late to undo it.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Talk to a DUI lawyer before you make a decision you can’t take back.

Even a first offence can mean:

  • A permanent criminal record

  • A 90-day (or longer) licence suspension

  • Thousands in fines, surcharges, and legal costs

  • Skyrocketing insurance rates

  • Limited travel — including to the U.S.

  • Employment loss, especially if you drive for work

  • Future charges carrying harsher penalties

๐Ÿ‘‰ One decision today could impact your life for years.


What About Plea Bargains?

Sometimes a plea deal is the right move — but only if it’s the right deal.

Bobby Russon will carefully assess whether:

  • The charge can be reduced or withdrawn

  • A non-criminal resolution is on the table

  • Going to trial is a better long-term outcome

๐Ÿ‘‰ A plea deal isn’t a deal if it destroys your future.


Real Defences. Real Results.

There are many ways Bobby Russon has helped clients fight — and win — DUI cases:

  • Procedural mistakes by police

  • Faulty breath or blood tests
