Can You Get DUI Charges After Leaving a Restaurant or Bar in Calgary?

Were you stopped by police after leaving a restaurant, pub, or bar in Calgary? Many people assume that simply leaving a licensed establishment is enough to face DUI charges—but that's not how Canadian law works.

In this video, we explain:

How DUI investigations may begin

What police look for during a traffic stop

Roadside screening and breath testing

Why location alone does not prove impairment

How a Calgary DUI lawyer reviews the evidence

What to do if you've been charged

Every impaired driving case depends on its own facts, evidence, and legal procedures.

CRA Tax Audits vs Criminal Tax Fraud Charges

Is a CRA tax audit the same as a criminal tax fraud charge? Not always. A CRA audit is usually a civil tax review, while criminal tax fraud allegations involve claims of intentional deception, hidden income, false filings, or tax evasion.

In this video, Akram Law explains the difference between CRA audits and criminal tax fraud charges, what penalties may apply, and why early legal advice matters if your tax issue may become a criminal investigation.

If you are facing a CRA investigation or tax fraud allegation in Calgary, protect your rights early.

How Video Evidence Can Support an Assault Defence

Video evidence can be powerful in assault cases — but only when it’s properly analyzed and used.

In this short whiteboard video, we explain how video footage may: • Show no physical contact occurred • Contradict witness statements • Support self-defence or mutual confrontation • Expose gaps in the Crown’s version of events

Video evidence is not always clear or complete. Defence strategy matters.
