Edinburgh Traffic Lawyer
Edinburgh is a great city and is home to Edinburgh Sheriff and Justice of the Peace Court where we have successfully defended hundreds of motorists alleged to have fallen foul of road traffic law. We have also enjoyed success and changed the law through successful appeals to both the High Court and the Sheriff Appeal Court. Edinburgh Sheriff Court deals with a lot of dangerous driving allegations and drink related driving charges. The Justice of the Peace Court takes cases including speeding, mobile phones and exceptional hardship and special reasons proofs.
We generally don't drive to Edinburgh as parking is an expensive nightmare. Find a park and ride train station instead. Being a major city there are facilities a plenty with a handy coffee bar within the court building.
