Drink Driving at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court
Being charged with drink driving is one of the most common reasons drivers attend Liverpool Magistrates’ Court. A conviction usually results in a minimum 12-month driving ban, along with fines and a criminal record.
However, not every case is straightforward. There may be issues with how the test was conducted, whether proper procedures were followed, or how evidence was handled. In some cases, a special reasons argument may apply.
Early legal advice ensures your case is properly assessed and gives you the best chance of a positive outcome.
Speeding, Totting Up and Driving Ban Cases
If you are facing a speeding offence, penalties can range from points and fines to disqualification in more serious cases.
