Motoring and Road Transport Law Solicitors
Road Traffic, Motoring and Road Haulage Solicitors
We have established a unique national panel of specialist Road Traffic, Road Haulage and Motoring Law solicitors with a wide area of coverage. They are all willing to help you or your business if you need advice and/or representation in respect of any Road Traffic Offence - such as speeding, drink driving, careless driving or dangerous driving.
If you need legal help then you may need a solicitor to help and advise you, and it pays to get someone who knows what they are doing. The guy that helped you through your divorce or to buy your house is unlikely to be any good standing up in front of the Magistrates. If you need help from an expert motoring law solicitor, you could benefit from our unique FIND A SOLICITOR service.
You should note that legal aid is generally not available for motoring offences, unless they are the more serious kind, but a good solicitor will discuss this possibility with you. If you fight a case and win then some, or all, of your solicitor's costs may well be paid by the court.
You may also be able to claim under a legal expenses insurance policy for legal representation, or, if there are possible civil proceedings (eg damage or injury after an accident) your motor insurers may be willing to support your legal efforts in the criminal proceedings, as success may help them fight any claim that is being made. Again your solicitor can look at this for you.
However, if push comes to shove, then you may have to pay for legal help yourself. We won't pretend that it is cheap, but it could be money well spent, as reducing or keeping points off your licence may well save you hundreds of pounds in increased insurance premiums , and just how would you manage if you lost your licence altogether?
We can help find the right motoring law solicitor for your needs

It remains a fact that, despite the strict road traffic laws that exist to prevent such incidents, drink-driving-related accidents are an extremely common problem. Every year in the UK over 3,000 people are either hurt or killed in road traffic accidents which are caused by driving under the influence of alcohol.
