Posted on by Alison Ashworth

We are delighted to publish our latest testimonial from one of our clients who was accused of drug driving: "I am a mechanic and unknowingly after smoking cannabis was stopped 15hrs later by police and was blood tested and my THC levels were double the limit, and was charged with driving under the influence of drugs.

They took on my case and dealt with it very professionally and made this upsetting time so much better. They took all the relief and explained everything in detail and would 100% recommend them.

Another of our clients found Not Guilty of Drink Driving; Testimonial

Posted on by Alison Ashworth

"I am writing this review in relation to my experience with Ashworth Motoring Law. Being in a position where your faced with losing your license or even prison is not a nice place to be. I did an extensive amount of research and contacted numerous solicitors for free phone consultations and just didn’t find the comfort or reassurance i needed to decide whether to part with my hard earned money or stay with a legal aid firm. It was a big decision that could affect my career and day to day life for the next few years to come. I finally got around to speaking to Alison and something just felt different about how she came across and it was pleasantly reassuring. I made the choice to go with Alison and she accepted my case. I had been charged with a drink drive offence and also an allegation of failing to stop for the police. The police and prosecution are there to just get targets and numbers up on convictions, no matter if they think you are guilty or not. That is one thing i have learnt in this. Without Alison i would not have stood a chance in hell and the police kept trying to add new things in to worsen things for me, but Alison pursued and fought and worked twice as hard as them to get the result I needed. Im normally quite smart with most things, but Alison can find a diamond in the rough instantly in every instance. From the beginning Alison and Colette advised and helped me and kept me more then up to date with everything that she was doing in relation to my case. They put my mind at ease all the way through. They made me feel like it was my good friends on my side helping me in a situation where someone else is trying to ruin my life. Alison was amazing and got me one of the best barristers around. We went to court and successfully walked out with not guilty verdicts to both charges. I couldn’t have been more happy and am able to continue my life normally now. I really am glad i followed my instinct and went with Ashworth Motoring Law. If you find yourself in any similar driving position and are a little sceptical about using a private solicitor as opposed to legal aid then I am more than happy to speak to you about my case as an independent person and I’m happy to answer any questions you have. I feel i owe Alison the respect to do that after how much she did to help me and successfully at that. I have unfortunately experienced the services of a legal aid solicitor in the past and to be honest there is no comparison and they of course left me high and dry and with an unsuccessful case i received a conviction. This is what made me more used towards paying for legal representation. They are just lazy number crunchers who want a big turn around of clients whether they help them or not. Ashworth Motoring definitely provide the whole package and more. If you do wish to contact me please do not hesitate to ask Alison or Colette for my details. Once again thank you to all at Ashworths."

Another new driver avoids licence revocation and keeps driving licence thanks to Ashworth Motoring Law

Posted on by Alison Ashworth

A preliminary discussion with the Prosecutor led to one of the charges against our client being dropped due to the defence evidence that had been gained in connection with the charge. This left only one matter for the Court to determine. Following a guilty plea, we made out our client’s case, and emphasised the disastrous consequences that the revocation of his driving licence would have. We requested a short term disqualification as punishment for the offence itself. After retiring to consider their verdict, the Magistrates returned to grant our request of a short-term disqualification from driving of just 14 days, and a fine of only £250 – avoiding the maximum fine of £5000.00. Our client was delighted with the result. When asked what he liked the best about our business, he said:
