"Dear Emma, I received a summons for driving without a licence, no insurance and speeding. I looked at your website and contacted you. What a choice I made. Ria Please took on my complicated case, as I had confusion with the DVLA. I write this to tell you how Ria handled my case, she was different class throughout the two month period. What a professional and friendly lady a credit to herself and your company. She kept me informed throughout and always called me when she said she would (not many people do that nowadays). Through her knowledge and professionalism she got the insurance and licence dropped, I always admitted speeding. She then went on to only get me a fixed penalty for speeding.... I'd recommend her and your company to anyone. Thank you and her for all your help. Please pass on my kind regards and thanks to Ria."

We took on a last minute case yesterday for a chap at risk of a totting ban.

The trial was listed for 2pm today and we were up against it. We made an urgent application for an adjournment - the court refused.

It was an allegation of contravening a red traffic light. Two officers in a car some 100 meters behind out client claimed they had seen the offence.

Our client denied the offence and had entered a not guilty plea. We fully prepared the trial and briefed our Barrister to attend. We had an abuse of process argument to thrown into the mix on the basis that a video allegedly recording the incident had been destroyed by the police.

Our Barrister attended court, explained the defence/abuse of process argument and our client's instructions. The CPS agreed to offer no evidence and withdraw the case - Great victory - Defendant's costs order granted - All in the space of less than 24 hours !!

Whilst we are happy to take instructions at the last minute - please try and get in touch as early as possible - its not good for our hearts!
