Road Traffic Problems

Scales of Justice

Are you a driver who has been charged with a road traffic offence?  Careless driving. Dangerous driving. Drink driving. We understand the strain that you are under, particularly if a driving ban could result in losing your job. Hewetts provides a comprehensive service for drivers who have been charged with road traffic offenses. We act for all kind of clients and in all kind of circumstances.

Examples of road traffic offences might be:

  • You have received a 'Notice of Intended Prosecution'.
  • You have received a summons or been charged with any driving offence.
  • You are due in court and may lose your licence.
  • You are in danger of losing points.
  • You think your car may have been flashed by a speed camera.
  • You are accused of speeding.
  • The police want to interview you in connection with an accident or incident.
  • You have been involved in a road traffic collision.
  • You have been arrested on suspicion of drink driving.
  • The police say you have gone through a red light.
  • You have been accused of driving dangerously or without due care.
  • You have been asked to produce your driving documents at your local police station.

Road traffic offences cover a difficult and specialist area of law.  We can offer you expert, sound and uncomplicated advice about trying to resolve your case.  We believe that the best results can be achieved by a focussed approach and the ability to negotiate in highly contentious situations.

An early assessment of the legal merits of your case is essential and we will give you a realistic view of your chances of success. We believe that a proactive and cost effective approach will help in finding a successful resolution.  We will discuss with you the available solutions that may help result in your case being settled without the need for court proceedings.  However if settlement is not possible we provide focussed support, practical guidance and effective representation, drawing on the whole firm's knowledge and resources to achieve the best results for our clients.

 

We offer free initial advice, regardless of whether or not you later wish to instruct us to act for you.
