I cannot recommend this Firm highly enough, the whole team is outstanding and their fees are transparent. They listen and explain the process. Questions are answered and you are always kept up to date.

Totting up (speeding) offence

I faced a 6 month diving license suspension for 12 points on my license. They were extremely reassuring and helpful, guiding me through an magitrates court appeal process, with excellent communication by email and telephone with a consistent contact (Tom). The outcome was in my favour thanks to the expertise and guidance of the legal team.

Driving offences

Life Savers

I was placed in a difficult situation when I was pulled over by the police for doing 79mph in a 40mph zone. As my job requires driving, my employment was at risk due to a potential ban looming over me. I happen to stumble across Forrest Williams when comparing a wide range of solicitors and I am very happy I went ahead with them. For the price you pay you certainly get first class service. Firstly, Stella Bates who helped me from my initial enquiry to the end of my case was superb. She was super responsive and helpful whenever I had any queries, absolutely amazing at her job. Secondly, my selected barrister Margaret Anucha was equally as superb, her professionalism and work ethic on the day despite being extremely busy with other clients was beyond excellent. My outcome was simply 6 points and a fine, which is way beyond what I was expecting considering my speed. I would highly recommend Forrest Williams and if possible using specifically Margaret and Stella if you have a similar case to mine.

I m a retired Civil Solicitor and was approached for help by someone close to me. They had instructed another Firm in relation to a motoring matter and when I looked at the paperwork and advice that they had received, it caused me significant concerns and I immediately began researching other Firms to move to and came across Forrest Williams and requested a callback. I cannot recommend this Firm highly enough, the whole team is outstanding and their fees are transparent. They listen and explain the process. Questions are answered and you are always kept up to date. Mr Forrest is an advocate, so subject to his availability, you are not having to deal with a barrister for the first time at Court. Mr Forrest is excellent in Court, his manner is professional and calm. As stated above, their service is outstanding

Hands down best solicitors to deal with!! I was let down by another firm which ended with me getting a 6 month totting up ban. Got in touch with stella and had the ban suspended a week later, couple months down the line and ive managed to keep my licence permanently and avoid a ban altogether. Unbelievable result for 107mph in a 70mph. Cannot thank stella and steve enough

Hi Matt, thanks for the review. It was a great feeling after the hearing and definitely worth the travel. All the best Steve

I can not praise forest Williams enough. They had less than 24 hours to prepare to support me in court. What a fantastic and understanding team, especially Helen who met me at court and took on my case. Helen went above and beyond helping me feel at ease every step of the way. I can not thank you guys enough for all you have done for me especially given the short time frame I left you with. 1000% recommend. Thank you again

Overturning driving ban

Adele from Forrest Williams went out of her way to help me with my driving conviction. The support from the first phone call all the way to Crown Court has been exceptional which was also reflected in overturning the original decision and lifting the driving ban. I couldn't recommend them more.

Incredible Personal & Professional Service

Throughout the start to finish, Tom was there to hold our hands through an unfamiliar process, and one we hope to never have to go through again in our lives. Tom’s compassion, empathy, knowledge and guidance was beyond what was expected, and we will be forever grateful.

The case worker and barrister there are very kind and professional. They have abundant experience in dealing with cases, thus provided me all possible results and justification plans. Always tell me what might happen next in order to let me prepare in advance, thus relived my anxiety. Only people of great confidence could do that.

Thank you, we are glad to hear that were able to relieve your anxiety. We understand that it can be a very stressful situation.
