Our Expertise

Motoring Offences

Brooklyn Law represent defendants on a private fee basis for motoring offences across London and the UK. 

Motoring Offences.

We are often approached by clients who are in danger of losing their driving licence. This may be due to obtaining 12 points under the totting up system and facing an immediate disqualification because of motoring offences. Examples of these offences may be drink driving, being drunk in charge, excessive speed, using a mobile phone whilst driving or driving without insurance. We also represent clients for more serious driving offences such as causing death or serious injury in respect of dangerous or careless driving.

Whatever the problem, we can help.

Realistic Advice

We provide you realistic advice and provide the spectrum of possibilities if you wish to contest your matter or plead guilty and try to avoid a ban. A ban can be avoided before the court if we can argue exceptional circumstances. We have successfully argued such circumstances on a frequent basis. On average you can expect to pay £600 + VAT for an uncontested hearing at the Magistrates’ Court.

  • Police Station Advice

    We also represent private hire vehicle taxi drivers. We have noticed a trend for police officers to conduct aggressive undercover operations trying to suggest that taxi drivers are touting for work. If you are arrested, you may need our services at a police station. If you accept a caution for touting or are charged and convicted, you will lose your PHV license from TFL. 

  • How We Can Help

    It is important to get clear and concise advice as to how to proceed. We have successfully represented taxi drivers at the police station and at court, which has resulted in taxi drivers retaining their PHV license. In some circumstances, upon successful acquittals in the Magistrates’ Court, we can apply to have some of your private fees paid to us paid back from government central funds.
