FAQs
How can you help me?
We can, in appropriate cases, argue that disqualifying you from driving could result in exceptional hardship.
We can, in certain cases, argue special reasons not to disqualify you exist in order to try to persuade the case not to disqualify you from driving at all or to reduce the level of a disqualification.
We can robustly defend those cases which are denied through to trial.
What is exceptional hardship?
This has to be over and above the ordinary natural inconvenience.
We will arrange an appointment to speak to you prior to the court hearing as part of our costs package where possible.
What are special reasons?
Examples would include driving in the case of an emergency, spiked or laced drinks or shortness of distance driven.
