Causing Injury by Dangerous Driving / Careless Driving

Caused a Driving Accident with Injuries?

Being involved in a car accident that injures someone is a stressful and upsetting experience. Colin Mitchell is a skilled traffic lawyer in Auckland here to help you understand the charges, explore your defence options, and fight to minimise the consequences.

While these charges are serious, there may be a strong defence available. Colin will explore options such as:

  • Challenging the Evidence: We'll analyse the police report, witness statements, and accident scene evidence to identify any inconsistencies that weaken the prosecution's case.
  • Demonstrating Unintentional Actions: If your actions were unintentional due to unforeseen circumstances or mechanical failures, we can argue against dangerous or careless driving.
  • Shared Responsibility: In some cases, both parties may share some blame for the accident. We can negotiate to reflect this shared responsibility.
  • Minimising Penalties: Even if guilt is established, we may be able to negotiate reduced fines, demerit points, or a shorter disqualification period.
