      FOR SERVICE YOU CAN TRUST, RELY ON #1 MOTORING SOLICITORS

      Expert Knowledge

      When you choose #1 Motoring Solicitors, you’re choosing a firm with unrivalled expertise in motoring law. Our expert team handles a wide range of road traffic offences, from mobile phone usage and speed limit violations to drug driving, drink-driving, careless driving, and dangerous driving. We also offer support for more complex matters, including criminal convictions, magistrates’ court proceedings, and Crown Court cases involving more serious offences.

      From advising you on speed awareness courses, reducing penalty points, preventing a driving ban or responding to a Notice of Intended Prosecution, to mounting a defence in court for a serious offence, our team is equipped to provide the expert legal support you need.

      Friendly and Professional Service

      Facing a motoring conviction or court summons can be overwhelming. That’s why our driving offence solicitors offer more than just specialist representation; we offer clarity, understanding, and reassurance throughout your case. Many motorists feel pressure to plead guilty, but in certain circumstances, there may be a stronger defence than you realise. It’s crucial to seek expert legal advice before entering a guilty plea.

      Whether you’re worried about accruing six penalty points and having your driving licence revoked, receiving a fixed penalty notice, or facing a driving ban, we’ll provide a clear view of your legal options. Our team regularly supports clients facing charges under the Road Traffic Act, including traffic light violations and first offences.

      Achieve the Best Possible Outcome

      Our specialist motoring solicitors’ goal is always to secure the best outcome for every client accused of motoring offences. That could mean challenging the prosecution’s case, securing an acquittal, or avoiding a maximum sentence and minimising the penalty imposed. In some cases, we’ve successfully argued for exceptional hardship, helping clients retain their licence even when the law suggests otherwise. In many cases, we can reduce the fines or penalty points you receive for motoring offences by suggesting alternatives, like a speed awareness course.

      We work on a fixed fee basis, so you always know where you stand. Whether you’re dealing with a minor road traffic offence, more serious road traffic offences, like dangerous driving or drink-driving, or a complex matter involving legal representation at court, our motoring offence solicitors are here to help you return to your normal daily life.

      I have enquired, what happens next?

      Once you have enquired with us, we will follow up with you to book you in for an initial consultation when you are next available. During this consultation, we will discuss the details of your case. We will provide a thorough assessment of your situation, offering tailored legal advice and outlining your available options going forward.

      What Is the Process of Contesting A Motoring Offence?
      • Gathering Evidence: The first step in contesting a traffic violation is to gather evidence that supports your case. This may include photographic evidence, witness statements, or any relevant documentation that can help to dispute the violation.
      • Understanding Your Options: A motoring solicitor can provide valuable guidance in understanding your legal options when contesting a traffic violation. They can assess the circumstances of the violation and advise on the best course of action to take.
      • Preparing the Defence: With the help of a motoring solicitor, you can effectively prepare a strong defence strategy. They can review the evidence, identify legal arguments, and ensure that your defence is well-structured and compelling.
      • Navigating Court Procedures: Contesting a motoring offence can sometimes mean appearing in court. A motoring solicitor can handle the legal procedures, and paperwork, and represent you in court, alleviating the stress of navigating the judicial process on your own.
      • Presenting Your Case: During the court proceedings, your motoring solicitor can effectively present your case, leveraging their legal expertise to articulate your defence and advocate on your behalf.

      By engaging the services of a motoring solicitor, individuals can benefit from expert legal support, tailored advice, and professional representation. This not only streamlines the process of contesting a traffic violation but also alleviates the stress associated with navigating the legal complexities involved.

      Do All Motoring Offences Go to Court?

      Not all motoring offences have to go to court. In some cases, less serious motoring offences may be resolved without the need for a court appearance through options such as fixed penalty notices, driver education courses, or administrative procedures. However, more serious or contested offences may require a court appearance. It’s important to seek legal advice from a motoring solicitor to understand the specific legal process applicable to the nature of the motoring offence in question.
