Road Traffic Solicitors

Road Traffic Solicitors

We can advise you 24/7 and provide free legal representation at the Police Station if you are arrested for a Driving Offence or requested to be interviewed under caution.

Should you be charged with any Road Traffic Offence we will first assess you for Legal Aid representation. If you are not eligible then we promise to offer you a competitive, agreed fee at the outset so you don’t have to worry about any hidden charges. What we agree is what you will pay. Specialist Road Traffic Solicitors can make the difference between you losing or keeping your driving licence.

If you believe that you are likely to lose your driving licence because of an offence you have committed, it is important that you meet with a Solicitor to decide whether you can make an application such as an exceptional hardship argument to keep your licence. The Road Traffic Act 1988 sets out the law in respect of most driving offences and we will consider this in detail with you and will advise you accordingly throughout your case.

How Road Traffic Incident Charges Can Affect Your Life

Facing a charge of causing death by careless driving can affect many parts of your life at once. It is not just about the court case. The uncertainty and pressure can be difficult to manage.

A driving disqualification is likely if the case results in a conviction. This can affect how you get to work, care for family, or manage daily responsibilities. In some cases, you may also need to pass an extended test before driving again.

There can also be an impact on employment. Some roles require a clean licence or a clear record. Even where this is not the case, the situation can create uncertainty at work.

Beyond the practical issues, there is often a significant emotional impact. Many people feel shock, guilt, and anxiety following a fatal incident. This can also affect those close to you, including your family, who may be trying to support you while dealing with the situation themselves.

  • Speeding
  • Failing to provide driver identity/nominate driver/section 172 offences

We Understand The Law

We Understand The Law

We will advise you from the outset whether we believe you have a defence and we will defend you with expertise and care.

We understand that a driving disqualification or even gaining penalty points can have a catastrophic effect on your life and that of your family. Choosing a Solicitor to represent your interests could therefore make a significant difference. Please do not hesitate to contact us, remembering that we offer free initial appointments.

We can offer you immediate advice regarding the case against you and whether you have mitigating circumstances to avoid the imposition of penalty points on your licence or a potential exceptional hardship argument to avoid disqualification.

What Happens After a Fatal Road Traffic Collision?

After a fatal road traffic collision, the police will attend the scene and begin a formal investigation. This can feel overwhelming, especially if you have never been involved in a situation like this before. It is important to understand that there is a standard process.

At the scene

The police will:

  • Secure the area and speak to those involved
  • Arrange medical assistance and manage the situation
  • Begin gathering initial evidence

You may be asked questions at the scene, but this is not the same as a formal interview.

Police involvement and interview

In many cases, the driver may be:

  • Arrested, or
  • Asked to attend a voluntary interview under caution (PACE)

Both situations are serious. Anything you say can be used as evidence, so you should not attend an interview without legal advice.

Vehicle seizure and evidence collection

The vehicle is usually seized so it can be examined. The police will also begin collecting evidence such as:

  • CCTV or dashcam footage
  • Witness statements
  • Road and weather conditions
  • Mobile phone data

Bail or release under investigation

After initial enquiries, you may be:

  • Released on police bail, or
  • Released under investigation while further evidence is gathered

We’re On Your Side

We always explain the law in a clear and simple manner. Dealing with the Police alone can be daunting, so let us be on your side, safe in the knowledge that your case will also be dealt with confidentially and sensitively.

No matter what type of criminal investigation you are facing you can be sure that we have experience of dealing with it.

Get The Right Advice For You

Anyone arrested is entitled to free and independent legal advice, therefore it is always advisable to request a Solicitor upon arrest, no matter how minor you may think the case may be.

Obtaining the correct advice could make all the difference between being charged with an offence or not. If you are arrested simply ask for MMA Law.

Funding Your Case

We will assess your eligibility for Legal Aid and if you are not eligible, we will provide you with an agreed fee to represent you to conclusion of your case.
