Road traffic law is extremely complicated making it essential that you seek the advice of a specialist. Sometimes a motoring offence may be minor; other times it could be far more serious with potentially devastating consequences.

As road traffic lawyers with extensive experience helping clients defend road traffic charges in the Scottish courts, we appreciate the potentially serious consequences a motoring conviction can have on your life and for your family. Our road traffic solicitors will do everything we can for you, within the bounds of road traffic law, to protect your driving licence and prevent you from going to prison.
