Driving Licence Disqualification Solicitors

If you are alleged to have committed an offence for which conviction could lead to the loss of your licence we can assist you.

There are different types of disqualification:

Penalty points disqualification (totting up disqualification) - If you amass a total of 12 points or more on your licence for offences occurring within a 3 year period, you are liable to disqualification for a period of 6 months on the first occasion and longer if you have previously been disqualified. The date of the offence is relevant not the date of the conviction.

Wiping the slate clean - A totting disqualification removes all existing penalty points from your licence so once you resume driving after the period of disqualification you can effectively start again from zero points.

Discretionary disqualification - A court may disqualify you for any endorsable offence as well as for other specific offences. Such disqualifications do not “wipe the slate clean”, with the points remaining on your licence following the period of disqualification.

An allegation that an offence has been committed does not necessarily have to lead to a conviction. It still falls to the police/prosecution to prove the offence.

If you are at risk of disqualification, do not simply accept the contents of a Notice of Intended Prosecution or a summons, call our solicitors now, we will assess your speeding defence and ensure the best possible outcome for you.
