MR TI got arrested just over 8 months ago, for driving under the influence of cannabis. I was blood tested, the results came back approximately 4 months later which showed I was over the legal limit.I contacted many firms to determine if I had a case worth fighting. My license was at risk, and so was my job. I contacted approximately 4-5 firms. All expressed I had a case worth fighting, but cost of service varied. One firm even quoted 15k which sounded ludicrous to me. Fortunate for myself I came across NML. My first contact after requesting a callback was from a lady called Sandra Cooper. She was extremely informative and transparent. My discernment made me decide to go with this company, and their fees in comparison to other firms was very reasonable. They list all costs, nothing was hidden. They are also quite flexible with payments providing you communicate. I read through a host of testimonials before making a final decision. I found some firms quite pushy in terms of choosing them, whilst these guys were very neutral. One firm even tried to discourage me from shopping around and just choosing them. I was quite confident choosing NML because I do know there are some firms out there focused predominantly on the financial gain rather than genuinely helping people like myself to keep my license. My case went to hearing and we won on insufficient evidence produced by the CPS. The CPS was unprepared and wanted to adjourn the trial for another 6 months, my solicitor was very thorough in his argument. As a result the court threw out the case. James Brooke’s (the solicitor) was very professional and direct speaking. Louise my case worker was very efficient with her correspondences, addressing my concerns in a timely manner. The only reason why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because on the day of my hearing communication between the office and myself wasn’t great, my solicitor was late due to unforeseen circumstances and it was never communicated despite calling the office twice. The following day I discovered my case worker Louise wasn’t in, which explained the lapse in communication. Total cost spent was approximately just under £2500 which I would say is well worth it. My license and job was protected. It has been a very stressful 8 months with this case over my head, but I will recommend them 100%.I am really grateful for the service they provided. Although everyone circumstances vary, you can trust that you will be advised honestly. Don’t be discouraged thinking because you have been prosecuted you will loose your license, because like myself you may just win because the CPS is unprepared and have produced insufficient evidence by the day of your trial.
