Understand Your Situation
Breaching a court ban is seen as defying the court. Prison is the starting point. We fight to keep you free.
Defending Ban Breaches
Driving while disqualified is a 'strict liability' offence, but prison is not inevitable. The court views this as a direct challenge to its authority. Our goal is to humanise the offence.
We explain the 'why'. Was it a medical emergency? A misunderstanding of the ban dates? We present powerful mitigation to persuade the court to impose a Community Order or curfew rather than immediate custody. We also check the validity of the original ban—if the paperwork was flawed, you may not have been legally disqualified.

Breaching a ban is serious. We present your mitigation to the court.
Plan Your Defence
Totting Up and Extensions
A conviction usually extends your ban. We fight to keep this extension to a minimum.
We also handle the associated 'No Insurance' charge (insurance is invalid if you are banned). We deal with the case holistically to resolve all matters in one hearing with the best possible outcome.
Ban Dates Confusing?
Not sure if you were banned? We check the court records for you.
Legal Aid Availability
For many criminal matters, from police station interviews to Crown Court trials, public funding (Legal Aid) may be available to cover your legal costs.
Eligibility is determined by the seriousness of the case and, in some instances, a means assessment. Our team will conduct an immediate, confidential assessment of your eligibility to ensure that financial constraints do not stand in the way of a robust defence.
