Losing your driving licence due to a motoring offence can have a devastating impact on your work and home life.
We understand that facing a road traffic charge can be stressful. Whether you are searching for a solicitor for motoring offences near me or need specialist advice on a Notice of Intended Prosecution, Satchell Moran Solicitors can help.
Seeking expert representation regarding a motoring offence is strongly advisable to ensure the best possible outcome. Our expert team of solicitors motoring offences specialists will assess your case, examine the evidence, and build a robust defence. We assist with a wide range of offences, including:
Experienced Guidance
We are dedicated to delivering expert guidance throughout your entire journey.
Expert Representation
Offering swift, non-judgemental advice from arrest through to court proceedings.
Robust Defence
Seeking legal help quickly helps to protect your rights and allows all legal avenues to be explored.
We offer competitive fixed fees for many summary motoring matters to give you certainty and peace of mind.
Note: These fees apply to local courts. Travel to courts outside the area incurs an additional cost of £165 + VAT per hour plus mileage (45p per mile). Expert reports (e.g., medical or forensic) are additional third-party costs.
For more serious motoring offences (e.g., dangerous driving or theft of a motor vehicle), we may be able to apply for Legal Aid or work on our full hourly rate of £165 + VAT per hour.
An initial plea and mitigation are normally entered by post or online. A single magistrate deals with the case without a formal hearing. If you plead guilty, you will be notified of the sentence by post.
For more serious matters (e.g., drink driving) or if you plead not guilty, you will be required to attend court. If you plead not guilty, a trial date will be fixed where we will present your defence.
If a guilty plea is likely to result in disqualification, the matter will be listed for a specific sentencing hearing where expert representation is vital to argue for reduced penalties or “exceptional hardship.”
Our dedicated team have experience of handling a wide range of motoring offence cases. We are experienced, professional and will treat your case with the rigour it requires in a non-judgemental and supportive manner.

Losing your driving licence due to a motoring offence can have a devastating impact on your work and home life.
We understand that facing a road traffic charge can be stressful. Whether you are searching for a solicitor for motoring offences near me or need specialist advice on a Notice of Intended Prosecution, Satchell Moran Solicitors can help.
At Satchell Moran we understand that facing a motoring offences investigation or dealing with charges can be an incredibly difficult and stressful time. We are dedicated to delivering expert guidance throughout your entire journey and will ensure every legal avenue is explored.
Our motoring offence solicitors have successfully dealt with many motoring offences under the Road Traffic Act, helping people keep their licences even when facing potential disqualification.
We have access to trusted forensic experts who can assist with your defence, ensuring every technicality is explored.
While you can represent yourself, instructing expert motoring offences solicitors is highly recommended if you are facing a driving ban (disqualification) or if you have grounds to argue “exceptional hardship” to retain your licence.
This is a method used for minor motoring offences where a single magistrate decides the case based on written evidence without a court hearing. You can enter your plea online or by post.
For basic offences, we offer a fixed fee of £600 + VAT for a guilty plea and mitigation, and £900 + VAT for representation at a trial. More serious cases may be charged at an hourly rate or funded via Legal Aid if eligible.
If you are privately funded and successfully defend your case, we can apply for a “Defendant’s Costs Order.” However, the amount recovered is capped at Legal Aid rates, meaning there will likely be a shortfall between what you paid and what you recover.
