National Motoring Lawyers Reviews

I found all your staff approachable and helpful. You all did a great job for me and I wanted to say thank you.

5* - Speeding - Approachable & Helpful

Both Dan Park (Lawyer) & Leanne Summers (Barrister) were excellent. I would gladly recommend you to a friend or colleague.

5* - Due Care & Attention - Would Gladly Recommend

Many thanks for all your hard work. So pleased to have avoided a totting ban. Your exceptional hardship argument was superb & I wouldn't have gotten this result without you.

5* - Totting Up - Avoided Totting Ban

I would like to quickly thank you for everything you did to help me with my case.  I am very pleased with the outcome as it wasn’t half as bad as i was expecting!  I could not have asked for anything better, or less! I appreciate all the work you put towards this, and thank you to the barrister that supported me, I was very impressed with him.  I will defientnly reccomend you in the future if need be.

5* - Discretionary Bans - Couldn't Be Better

I just wanted to thank you for the support and advice you have given me during the long drawn out proceedings for the case against my company, hearing the news on Tuesday afternoon that the Prosecution would ‘Offer no Evidence’ was music to my ears, it took a great weight of my shoulders I would like to thank Emma as well for her original advice and to say it all stacked up really neatly, I would certainly recommend your Company to anyone with a motoring problem with the Law knowledge you specialise in.

5* - Failing to Name Driver - Prosecution Offer No Evidence

Many thanks for all your help on our behalf. In the end, it was very helpful for family reasons not to have had to attend court that day and we appreciate your success in keeping the fine and costs to a reasonable level. The court papers have arrived and we have just paid the outstanding total of £270, so (apart from the likely additional premium when we tell insurers) all's well that ends well!

5* - Speeding - Minimum Fine & Costs

Just a note to thank you so much for your help with our sons traffic matter. He couldn't have got a better outcome, he is so grateful he gets to keep his licence and I think he has now learned his lesson. He was so pleased he only got 14 days driving ban and a fine. Thank you again for getting him through this, we couldn't have done it without you. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who is in need of a good solicitor for a motor traffic offence.

5* - Rules for New Drivers - Avoids Revocation

In the Magistrates Count the client was respresented by another firm of solicitors. The Court accepted that he didn’t get the original NIP. The Count advised the Prosecution to apply to change the dates to refer to the reminder letter. This was agreed. The Solicitor didn’t know what to do. They ended up presenting a reasonable diligence defence and lost. The client instructed us to appeal. The CPS refused to withdraw the case, but our appeal was successful. Excellent job fixing previous bad advice. You dug me out of a hole I got myself into by choosing non specialist solicitors to defend my case. Never again, I'm a convert now, you're my experts. So grateful.

5* - Failing to Name Driver - We Fix The Mistakes Of Others

Self-employed lorry driver needed to get back on the road quickly. We succeeded in achieving a 36 day reduced totting disqualification (and the 36 days our client had already served as time counted). I couldn't believe the outcome of my case. Thank you all a lot, especially Rachel Ballamy & Natasha Bournes.

5* - Totting Up - Totting Ban Reduced To 36 Days

(Advice given to a general soliciors practice) We are delighted with the outcome and with your good work, for which we are most grateful. We will most certainly recommend you and your firm. Should we require advice on motoring matters in the future, we will have no hesitation about instructing you again. Thanks and please pass on my regards to Emma.

5* - Fail to Stop / Report - From One Solicitor To Another!

I can't thank you enough for your excellent advice and while I have had some awful experiences with law firms in general it is so refreshing to interact with genuine people like yourselves who are just so ahead of the game. I can only recommend that anyone with a motor offense difficulty should contact yourselves to get the best advice and insight. Law firms like yours deserve commendation and full support from the entire motoring community. Peace and prosperity in abundance.

5* - Fail to Stop / Report - Refreshing To Interact With Genuine People Like You

I was a new driver, caught driving at high speed, initially sentenced in absence - I received 6 penalty points and had my driving licence revoked. After I instructed Patterson law to deal with his appeal sentence, mitigated for a short discretionary disqualification, I got a 7 day disqualification.... you are truly awesome!

5* - New Driver Rules - 6 Month Ban Reduced To 7 Days!!

You may recall you kindly advised me recently in relation to 2 speeding offences 2 minutes apart on a vintage motorcycle. Your advice was much appreciated and helpful, and this is just to let you know that Thames Valley Police agreed to cancel one offence, and I have just returned from attending a Speed Awareness Course for the other, so, though suitably chastened, I am much relieved.

5* - Speeding - Two Speeding Offences reduced To One

I am writing to say a huge thank you to you and Vanessa Long (Barrister) for the work that you did on my behalf. As you know, I was hugely distressed and anxious when I first contacted Patterson Law. I had spent over a week trying to find someone to explain the charges, let alone represent me. In the event, my son found the website of Patterson Law and we took advantage of your ‘one free question’. The reply was very helpful and things started happening from thereon. At first I was rather sceptical about using a firm that I had never heard of and that were based many miles from me. I certainly needn’t of worried. You, personally, have a very calming nature and I found it very easy to talk to you and, in return, you made everything as clear as possible to me. I was concerned that I would not meet my barrister until shortly before my court appearance, but once again I need not have worried as Vanessa was very good at allaying my anxieties and was fantastic in court. The case was adjourned for a week – for very clever legal reasons that were far beyond me! …and again, you and Vanessa made excellent preparations and, leading up to the final court case, guided me through the whole process. I was amazed and so fortunate to receive a ban of only two months and I am already a week into that. I cannot thank either of you enough and I would certainly recommend Patterson Law to anybody with difficult driving offences. There is not a chance that I could have achieved these results on my own and Vanessa’s powers of negotiation where awe inspiring. I wish you both the very best. Hannah, please pass this on to Vanessa. Have a very Happy Christmas. Mine is certainly going to be better than expected.

5* - Discretionary Bans - Straightforward, No Nonsense Advice

5* - Dangerous Driving - Better Than Expected

Thanking you for your professional services in dealing with my driving offence. Considering I was up to 12 points & a possible driving ban for 6 months, I'm very pleased with the outcome, at Least I'll have sometime to finish renovation on the house before Christmas,so it's not all bad! May I take this opportunity to wish you a very merry Christmas & prosperous 2016.

5* - Due Care & Attention - You Gave Me Confidence

I write with regards to your recent help with my road traffic case and to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your assistance. When I think about recent events I still can't believe how the outcome came about, maybe you did something more behind the scenes, or maybe it was myself finding such an excellent Solicitor, together with an excellent company that did the trick?! Whatever and however it came about, I'm so happy to be focusing on Christmas stress free, together with concentrating on becoming a better driver, who does not let other drivers force me into driving badly. So once again, thank you so much, and please also pass on my thanks to Emma Patterson for such an excellent service, I'm sure she is very pleased to have you as one of her team.
