How our driving offence solicitors in St Albans can help
Drink driving
If you are stopped and found to be in charge of a vehicle while above the legal limit, you will be facing a driving ban, a possible prison sentence, or a financial penalty.
Our team of solicitors dealing with driving offences can review your circumstances and advise you on your options and of any defence relating to the alleged offence, or if there is none, can advise on mitigation.
Drug driving
It is illegal to drive if you are unfit to do so due to having drugs over the prescribed limit in your blood, and if so, a prosecution will follow.
If you are under investigation for a drug driving offence, it is important to immediately seek legal advice.
Wells Burcombe can review your case and provide advice on your options and any defence or mitigation available to you.
Driving whilst disqualified
The potential consequences of driving whilst disqualified can be serious, sometimes meaning a prison sentence.
Our team of motoring defence solicitors can provide strong representation at the police station and any following court proceedings, putting together a robust defence on your behalf.
Speeding offences
We understand the frustration of receiving notification of a speeding offence. Our road traffic offence solicitors can help review a Notice of Intended Prosecution (NIP) and Section 172 notice.
Our team can help you to return the notice correctly or appear with you in court if necessary.
Driving with a mobile phone
We understand that the law around using your mobile phone in a car can sometimes feel unclear.
If you have been stopped for driving with a mobile phone, our expert team of motoring offence solicitors in St Albans can provide expert advice and support.
Death or serious injury by careless and dangerous driving
Death or serious injury by dangerous or careless driving is a serious driving offence. It is important that you reach out for legal support, as the penalties can be severe.
We understand what is at stake and the potential impact on your home life and well-being.
Our road traffic offence solicitors can provide assistance:
- At the police station
- During criminal investigations
- At court
Appeals and licence revocations
We understand the various reputational and personal challenges you face when your licence has been or is under threat of being revoked.
Wells Burcombe’s motoring offence solicitors can advise you accordingly and work to establish steps for regaining your licence through driving medical assessments or appeals to the Magistrates Court, and also to contest any proposed revocation.
Failure to provide a specimen
It is an offence to refuse or fail to provide a specimen without a reasonable excuse, and this can lead to a prison sentence.
We recognise that there are many reasons why you may not have provided a specimen, and our solicitors can review the case with you.
We aim to advise on any available defence or mitigate the effect and duration of your sentence when no viable defence is available.
Failure to stop or report an accident
The penalty for failing to stop or report an accident can be a fine of up to £5000 and/or up to six months in prison.
Driving offences such as these are rarely straightforward. Given this, we strongly advise that you contact a solicitor for driving offences.
Our team can help review the details of your case and assemble a strong defence to get you a fair outcome.
