A driving conviction can affect far more than your licence. It can put your job, independence and family responsibilities at risk. Our role is to protect your position, guide you through the process, and achieve the best possible result in your case.
Specialist Motoring Law Defence You Can Trust
Motoring law is a complex and highly technical area. Even minor errors by the police or prosecution can mean the difference between conviction and acquittal. At Scarsdale Solicitors, we focus exclusively on motoring offences, giving you access to specialist knowledge, strategic advice and strong courtroom advocacy.
We act for drivers accused of offences ranging from speeding and mobile phone use to serious allegations such as dangerous driving and death by driving. Whether your case is dealt with in the Magistrates’ Court or the Crown Court, you will be represented by solicitors who understand both the law and the practical realities of motoring prosecutions.

Our Motoring Law Services
We provide defence representation for all driving and road traffic offences. Each service area below is handled by solicitors with in depth experience of the relevant legislation and sentencing guidelines.
Drink Driving Solicitors
If you have been charged with drink driving, the consequences can be severe, including a mandatory disqualification. Our drink driving solicitors examine every aspect of the case, from roadside procedure to evidential breath testing. We regularly challenge calibration errors, procedural breaches and timing issues, including morning after cases.
Drug Driving Solicitors
Drug driving allegations often rely on roadside screening tests and blood analysis. Our drug driving solicitors scrutinise test reliability, chain of custody and laboratory procedures. We also defend cases involving prescription medication where drivers were taking drugs in accordance with medical advice.
Speeding Solicitors
Speeding charges are not always as straightforward as they appear. Our speeding solicitors challenge camera evidence, signage compliance and device accuracy. Where appropriate, we work to reduce penalties, avoid disqualification, or present mitigation to limit points and fines.
Totting Up Ban Solicitors
Drivers who reach 12 or more penalty points face an automatic ban. Our totting up ban solicitors prepare detailed exceptional hardship applications, supported by evidence relating to employment, family responsibilities and medical needs, to help you keep your licence.
Dangerous Driving Solicitors
Dangerous driving is a serious allegation that can result in lengthy disqualification or imprisonment. Our dangerous driving solicitors defend cases involving collisions, alleged poor driving standards and disputed evidence. We instruct expert witnesses where needed and provide robust representation at trial.
Careless Driving Solicitors
Careless or inconsiderate driving cases often turn on interpretation of events. Our careless driving solicitors challenge witness statements, police opinions and road conditions to seek reduced charges or acquittals where possible.
Failing to Provide Specimen Solicitors
Failure to provide charges can sometimes be defended where medical or physical reasons prevented compliance. Our failing to provide specimen solicitors assess whether a statutory defence applies.
Driving Without Insurance Solicitors
Being accused of driving without insurance can carry serious penalties. Our driving without insurance solicitors assess whether valid cover existed, whether there was a reasonable belief of insurance, or whether special reasons apply to avoid endorsement.
Driving While Disqualified Solicitors
Driving whilst disqualified is treated seriously by the courts. Our driving while disqualified solicitors focus on defence strategies and strong mitigation to reduce the risk of custody.
Mobile Phone Offences Solicitors
Mobile phone allegations often involve misunderstanding about hands free use or handling. Our mobile phone offence solicitors analyse phone records and police evidence to challenge incorrect charges.
Death by Dangerous/Careless Driving Solicitors
These are among the most serious motoring offences. Our death by driving solicitors provide sensitive but robust representation, focusing on causation, driving standard and expert evidence in the Crown Court.
Taxi Licensing Appeals
For professional drivers, a licence suspension or revocation can end a career. Our taxi licensing solicitors handle appeals against licensing decisions to protect your livelihood.
How the Motoring Law Process Works
From the moment you contact us, we guide you through each stage of the process.
We advise you following roadside stops and police station interviews, review all prosecution evidence, identify potential defences, and prepare you for court. If you plead not guilty, we build a strong defence case. If you plead guilty, we present comprehensive mitigation to minimise penalties.
Pleading Guilty? We Can Still Help
Even if you accept the offence, expert representation can significantly reduce the impact on your licence and record. We prepare mitigation, gather supporting evidence, and present exceptional hardship arguments where appropriate. Early advice often leads to better outcomes.
