Drink driving Solicitors

Our specialist drink driving lawyers have the knowledge and experience to review your case and advise you in full on your options.

Many clients are unaware of their options when they first contact us for help. They’re unaware of the defences available and simply take what the police charge says at face value, even though it might be incorrect. That’s why it’s so important to get the right legal advice. Penalties for drink driving can be severe, ranging from fines to imprisonment. So, you shouldn’t be by yourself when it comes to pleading guilty or preparing a defence.

With over 25 years’ experience in defending drink driving charges, we’ve a high success and client satisfaction rate.

Whether you wish to challenge the charge against you or seek the most lenient sentence, we have the expertise to help you.

Prosecutors must prove every element of your offence. If you want to seek an acquittal (where all charges are dropped), we’ll work with forensic experts and specialist barristers to prepare the strongest defence possible.

We’ll liaise with the police, court, and CPS on your behalf, and instruct the country’s top barristers to represent you in court.

There are various ways we can help, depending on your unique situation, like arguing that:

• You drank after you drove
• You weren’t fit to be detained
• You drove a very short distance
• You didn’t drive or attempt to drive
• You drove because it was an emergency
• You didn’t drive on a public road or in a public place
• Your drink was spiked or laced without your knowledge
• The alcohol reading isn’t consistent with what you drank
• The police didn’t take your breath, blood, or urine sample correctly
• You weren’t warned that you could be prosecuted for not providing a sample
• You have a medical condition which may have caused a higher alcohol reading (like reflux)
• The laboratory analysis of your blood or urine sample isn’t reliable due to the method of testing or lack of continuity.

If you choose to plead guilty, we’ll work to get you the most lenient sentence possible.

And if you are not sure what to plead, we’ll work together on a decision.
