Jake’s mitigation had been prepared well in advance of the hearing and included bringing to court selected documentation in support. The court was addressed by both advocates for the police and for the defence. Jake’s fate hung in the balance as it depended on the court sentencing him in exactly the way he needed. Fortunately for Jake the court did exactly as they were asked by defence counsel. Jake wrote afterwards:
‘The judges said this is a very serious case and that I’m very lucky to be alive. Sunil represented me and presented my case brilliantly. I was at risk of having my licence revoked with a big fine as well as the loss of job and rented accommodation. Thanks to Sunil’s excellent skill and experience the results of the case were only a 28-day driving ban and fine. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is facing the worst possible scenario’.
If you are facing an allegation of an offence but don’t know where to start the earlier you contact Kent Traffic Law the sooner we can put you on the right path. There are never any ‘magic bullets’ but there may be a way to come through even the most awkward of prosecutions relatively unscathed if you make the right choices at an early stage.
