Horsman Solicitors

Horsman Solicitors have a wealth of experience in representing clients in all Road Traffic Offences, both in the Magistrates and Crown Courts.

Such cases that come before the courts, range from speeding allegations, drink-driving offences, to more serious dangerous driving charges.

Nearly all road traffic offences can result in penalty points and/or disqualification.

Our firm can put forward various legal arguments, such as Special Reasons in law, that allow Magistrates the discretion not to endorse your licence with penalty points, or disqualify you from driving.

As a general rule, if any Road Traffic Offence means you will end up with 12 points on your licence, then the Court will look to disqualify you for a minimum period of 6 months.

Our Road Traffic Solicitors can put forward the legal argument that such a ban will cause you to suffer exceptional hardship, therefore allowing the Courts discretion to reduce that length of ban, or impose no period of disqualification, at all.

We will uphold your rights and defend you against any criminal allegations made against you. Anyone arrested at a POLICE STATION when asking for Horsman Solicitors, is entitled to Free Independent Advice irrespective of your income. This is due to our firms experience, quality controls and contract with the Legal Aid Agency.

Due to our expertise and commitment to our clients, we are often asked to attend the Magistrates Court's across the whole of Sussex and throughout the South East of England. Andy Horsman manages a team of professional and dedicated solicitors, who provide a high level, quality service to our clients in the Magistrates Court.

Horsman Solicitors prides itself on having the most comprehensive and experienced Crown Court departments in Sussex. Our Criminal Defence team are vastly experienced in dealing with the most serious cases that come before the Crown Court. We are different from other firm's, in that with a team of in-house advocates, led by Tom Nicholson-Pratt, this means your case has the input and advice from a senior in-house Barrister at a very early stage. It also means you do not have to keep repeating your instructions to different Advocates, as we deal with all our cases in-house.
