Experienced Drug Driving Lawyers When It Matters Most
Drug driving offences in Queensland are taken seriously, and the penalties can be significant even for a first offence.
To give yourself the best chance at a fair outcome, you need advice that is accurate, practical and based on real courtroom experience.
Our firm is led by Principal Lawyer Brooke Winter, a former police prosecutor with more than 20 years of courtroom experience.
That background gives our team a clear understanding of how police build their case, how saliva test results are assessed and what magistrates look for when sentencing drug driving matters.
This insight allows us to:
- Review your matter for issues that may support a reduced penalty
- Communicate with the police on your behalf
- Prepare yourself thoroughly for court
- Present your case in a way that supports a fair, balanced outcome
Matters from Logan and the surrounding suburbs are heard in the Beenleigh Magistrates Court, where we appear regularly.
We understand how local drug-driving charges are handled and what steps can help strengthen your position before sentencing.
Possible Outcomes We Can Help You Achieve For Drug Driving Charges
The outcome of a drug-driving charge can vary widely, but with the right preparation and representation, many of our clients achieve results far better than they expect.
Because we handle drug driving matters across Logan every week, we understand what magistrates look for and what supporting material makes a real difference.
Clients we represent commonly achieve outcomes such as:
- Shorter disqualification periods – In suitable cases, the court may consider the lower end of the range when the right information is presented clearly.
- Fines at the lower end – Well-prepared submissions often help reduce the financial penalty.
- No conviction recorded – For eligible clients, we regularly help secure outcomes that protect employment, professional licences and future opportunities.
- Approval for restricted licences – Many of our clients continue driving for work or essential duties after we prepare their work licence application.
- A smoother, more predictable sentencing process – Because our clients walk into court prepared, they often experience a clearer and more manageable process with fewer surprises.
These outcomes aren’t guaranteed, but they are realistic when your matter is prepared properly, and the eligibility criteria are met.
Our experience with local drug driving matters means we know what steps give you the strongest chance of reducing the impact on your licence, work and future.
How We Can Help With Your Case
Drug driving matters follow a strict process in Queensland, and the way your case is prepared can directly influence the penalty you receive.
Our role is to guide you through that process with clarity, accuracy and strong representation.

- Preparing you for court – We help you organise the material that magistrates rely on when deciding penalties, including references, programs or supporting documents.
- Work licence applications – If you are eligible for a restricted licence, we prepare the necessary affidavits and documents and guide you through each step of the application.
- Professional court representation – We appear for you in the Beenleigh Magistrates Court and present your case clearly and respectfully, focusing on the factors that support a fair result.
