Failure to provide a sample

5

I was stopped for drink driving and provided a road side specimen for the police. The reading recorded at the roadside showed I was more than two times over the limit. I was then taken to the police station where I was charged with failing to provide a sample.
Contacting JHR Solicitors was the best decision I could of made, John gave me clear advice of the service he could provide and the possible outcome for my case. John was professional and provided a first class service, which was easy to understand with his great legal knowledge.
Thanks to John's hard work and proactiveness I was found not guilty and my case was acquitted.
I would highly recommend JHR solicitors and I would defiantly use again.

The best solicitor you will find!

John is full of knowledge but will also go out of his way to extensively research any new issues that arise. He is approachable, supportive and hardworking. At no point do you ever feel like your questions are an inconvenience and John goes out of his way to fully explain everything as soon as it’s happening which makes you feel secure in what could be a very scary situation. He is also extremely honest which means you are always fully informed. Thank you so much!

John Ruane is excellent at what he does. John provided clear and honest advice when taking on my case, he has great legal knowledge when it comes to driving cases. Was super proactive when it came to communication with myself and also my partner, kept us in the loop with everything. I would 100% recommend John if you are in a predicament. Will definitely be using these services again if needed. Thank you so much John. Case got dropped before the management hearing, extremely happy with results.

Excellent experience and service

5

John was always a pleasure to deal with and very helpful when it came to knowing what to do, when to do it and when to ask. He appointed an excellent representative for me (Mike) who was again very nice and knowledgeable and I got the best case scenario in a bad situation. Thank you to the both of them for all their help and expertise.

I was facing a case of Driving without due care, and a possible totting up ban, the first thing i did was search for specialist driving solicitors in my area and Johns name came up with great reviews. And i can see why!. From the initial phone call i knew john was the right man to take on my case, he was very reassuring and honest and talked through all the possible outcomes.
After meeting john face to face, He attended my police interview with me and after months of waiting for the police to take action I received the best possible outcome and one which i can only thank john for his help.

July 2022

I received a summons from the police alleging I had driven through a red light - 1.5 seconds into the Red

I knew I hadn’t committed the offence so I decided to fight the claim rather than take the 3 points and see my insurance costs go up in the future - and lose my clean driving license

After much research I found John.

John dealt with my case very professionally, conducted his own research and it transpired the AI linked to the camera had 2nd guessed one of the number plate letters and it wasn’t even my car - shocking this is happening in the U.K.

The police sent me a letter last week advising their had been a ‘clerical mistake ‘ and the case was dropped, this is all down to Johns diligent work

I don’t normally do reviews but felt compelled to let people know just how good John actually is, he handled everything and we won.

Preston Magistrates Court

Drink Driving Offence

I rang John after searching on google as I didn’t have a clue. I was a distraught mother who thought her son would go to prison. This was his first offence and we’d never been in this situation before. I rang John and he didn’t judge me. He spoke to my son and was fully supportive and reassuring. He always made time to discuss my son’s circumstance. As my son is self employed, loosing his licence for a lengthy time could have made the business collapse. We got the best outcome possible due to having John’s guidance. He ran the case from start to finish and even travelled to Preston. He gave my son and myself advice on what to expect in court. After, John still gave advice on how to apply to get his license back on time.
I would definitely recommend John as a solicitor. He deserves five stars and more if it was possible. If I needed a solicitor in the future, John would be the one.

A big thank you to everyone at JHR SOLICITORE specially John Ruane the managing director for helping me keep my license and more importantly avoiding lengthy unwanted criminal record ,your guys are simply the best no doubt about that !! in February last year I got arrested for a driving offence I then got told that I should get a letter within a few months for my blood test , after 6 months for waiting for the letter I finally got it and got charged. At this point I thought I was gonna lose my license and even my job due to criminal record that automatically comes with drug driving convictions. A friend mine recommended JHR solicitors as he used the company previously in a similar case that resulted in acquittal,I got contacted John ruane after giving me initial advice i knew he was the man I needed in my corner I can’t thank him enough for agreeing to take on my case,from the start to the end he was very professional, helpful and efficient in every single way he prepared my defense and appointed the best barrister in the country to represent me at the trial mr John Dye, on trial day after after lengthy legal arguments CPS decided to offer no evidence and the judge formally dismissed all charges against me , you guys are simply the best solicitors in the game I recommend JHR Soliceters to anyone these guys they are the real deal . Once again thank you so so much I really appreciate all the hard work you all put in to achieve this great results for me.
