Road traffic defence lawyers
We understand that motoring offences can happen to anyone and in a busy world do occur when we least expect them. We all get in our cars every day with the intention of reaching our destination without incident, but things happen. Mistakes can be made, accidents can occur, and we sometimes make lapses in judgment. We are here to help when this happens and you find yourself facing a road traffic allegation that could result in you losing your licence.
Our road traffic solicitors have years of experience defending people who are facing criminal road traffic allegations. Richard Nelson LLP has an experienced team, lead by Eve Patterson - who has specialised in defending road traffic cases for over 15 years. She has extensive experience and knowledge, which helps her quickly identify any defences available and the best route to protecting your licence and keeping you on the road. The team has a high success rate and our client testimonials demonstrate the importance of having a road traffic defence lawyer involved from an early stage.
We will offer an early and detailed review of case papers and a face-to-face or Teams-based conference in advance of any police station or court appearance at a time and date to suit you.
Being a national law firm, we can accommodate police interviews and court hearings across the country and provide a tailored service to your needs. You will be assigned a road traffic solicitor who will be your first point of reference so that you have consistency in your case and can establish a sound working relationship.
