Members of 33 Bedford Row understand that motoring offences can be an area of law that requires sensitivity, clarity and professionalism. We can offer barristers that have experience at all levels whatever the complexity. Barristers that specialise in this area will often carry out meticulous preparation and it would be our advice would be to engage a barrister at the early stages of a case to ensure that a client’s case is managed as effectively from the outset.

Some motoring offences may be suitable for direct access. That is where members of the public may now go directly to a barrister without having to involve an instructing solicitor or other intermediary. Although the barrister’s role remains essentially the same, members of the public may instruct a barrister directly through the public access scheme. The main advantage of the public access scheme is that it could potentially save you money whilst giving you access to the Bar, since you would be paying for a barrister only instead of a barrister and solicitor. In order to see if your case may suitable please contact the clerks.
