The offence of Double Doctoring is found in s. 4 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Essentially it is the offence of going to 2 doctors to fill the same prescription. In addition, there are many cases where the accused will forge false prescriptions on prescription pad paper that has been stolen from a doctor’s office. This offence carries serious consequences including a possibility of jail. Addiction is often a contributing factor and can be used in some cases as mitigating on sentence. Taking steps to deal with addiction problems is looked upon favourably by the courts.

What Clients Say Farid
I switched lawyers in between my court proceedings as my other lawyer was not responding to any of my inquiries and not attending my court dates. I was involved In a domestic matter and had two pending charges. I interviewed many lawyers and decided to go with Mr ZAMANI because of his professionalism. He got my charges withdrawn and on top of that answered every single one of my questions with great knowledge and expertise. One of the best lawyers I have ever come across and he has a great network and support group who he works with. He is very professional and an exceptional all around lawyer. If anyone needs a lawyer who will be by on their side hand by hand and who will literally give them a peace of mind in a legal matter look no further than Mr ZAMANI.
