Death by dangerous driving covers cases where a driver’s excessive speed or reckless behaviour leads to the death of another person, typically prosecuted as causing death by dangerous driving under the Road Traffic Act 1988. A solicitor advises on investigations, consults with the Crown Prosecution Service, reviews police files, and represents the defendant at court, including during plea discussions and any trial. The case hinges on proving the driving was dangerous and causation of death.

“I just want to say how fantastic and amazing Forbes solicitors are, I only told them about my case last Friday and had my court appearance this morning, I thought I would be serving time in prison or community service with 6-12 month ban, possibly being on tag. But David Scully did wonders in court, gave me an early Christmas miracle, outcome was low fine and 6 points and I can drive again and get my life back on track, so massive shout out to a friend of friend introducing me to Paolo Passerini & David Scully, I can’t thank you both enough. If you want real people who our solicitors and highly professional, who care about each individual then this is the firm. Kind regards C V ”

“Lost DLVA Driving Licence through drink driving. Should have been getting licence back in May 2024, did a course so that it would have come back in October 2023. Did blood tests as requested and sent paperwork to DVLA from their doctor but they said that because I had been in rehab which I had not unfortunately the my doctor put down the wrong things so they said I would have to wait until the end of the year 2024. Came to see yourselves and relayed the situation. Was going to be heard at Basildon Magistrates at the end of April but because of new evidence am getting licence back. ”

“After phoning around a number of solicitors and been quoted crazy money I was advised to speak to Poole and Alcock by a friend of mine. Best decision I could have made. Tim Edgley was refreshing to deal with and made me feel extremely comfortable in a worrying time. The outcome of the case was 100% better than expected and can’t thanks Tim and the team enough. Highly recommend. ”

“I recently was caught speeding which ended up in me having to go to court to keep my licence, realising I would require a Solicitor I reached out to Hewitt's and made an appointment with Callum Terry. Callum was the excellent from start to finish and the day at the magistrates when i really thought i would get a 56 day ban, Callum fought my case and i ended up with six points but importantly kept my licence. I have used Hewitt's for a couple of things now and i highly recommend their services. Many thanks Colin Elrick”

Chris Wong
Director and Criminal Defence Solicitor
Works with Kathryn Lill
“Can’t recommend Chris enough, from the first phone conversation I had with him he put me at ease, was easy to talk to, non judgemental and down to earth. I gave him the full story, even probably irrelevant details and he was patient and understanding. His knowledge of the area really shone through as he was then able to take on the information I’d thrown at him, understand my situation and translate it into something the magistrates would understand. He went above and beyond, even supporting and advising my family through the process. He was straight talking, honest, and gave me full confidence. I went in with very realistic expectations, set by Chris, these were then exceeded, so I am incredibly grateful. Thank you for all of your support and understanding Chris. ”
