Frequently Asked Questions

At Option-Légal, our lawyers know where to strike to win. Their job is to negotiate to reduce or avoid demerit points on your ticket and give you the best possible solutions so that you are professionally prepared for your trial.
You have 30 days to pay from the date the statement of offence was issued to indicate your intention to contest it. In order to put all the chances on your side to reduce your demerit points or to eliminate them entirely, it is important to contact Option-Légal as soon as possible. Otherwise, a default judgment could be made against you.
It’s always worth it! Demerit points on a driving record can have serious consequences, such as:
  • Additional costs when paying for your driver’s license each year;
  • Increasing the cost of your car insurance;
  • Stopping you from working (when a job requires a perfect driving record);
  • Note on your record, which can remain there for up to 10 years, depending on the offence.
  • Vous recevrez par la poste un jugement par défaut, ce qui signifie que vous devrez non seulement payer l’amende imposée, mais vous verrez également les points d’inaptitude apparaître sur votre dossier de conduite. Il est donc important de plaider non coupable dans les 30 jours suivant la réception de votre constat d’infraction.

    La SAAQ suspendra votre permis de conduire, et ce, jusqu’à ce que vous ayez payé l’entièreté de votre constat d’infraction. Conduire avec un permis suspendu pourrait engendrer de lourdes sanctions, pouvant aller jusqu’à 2 000 $.

    Unfortunately, no. Option-Légal’s lawyers won’t represent you during your trial. Our assistance focuses on trial preparation and legal document preparation. If you want to be represented by a lawyer, contact the Riendeau Avocats Firm at 438-522-3312 for more information.
