Forrest Williams are specialist drink driving solicitors.  We share our clients’ cases while protecting their identity.

When Raymond Digby* first contacted us for help, he was mortified about the fact that he was facing a drink driving conviction.  Raymond explained to us that he held a position of some seniority within a university and that he had told only a couple of people about his forthcoming court hearing.  With no previous drink driving convictions in his 30 years of motoring, Raymond could not believe that he now faced a certain disqualification based on his blood alcohol reading of 134ml.

Raymond was reassured from our first telephone conversation that he would be allocated a case worker, who would be his first point of contact regarding his case.  This is a service offered to all clients of Forrest Williams, at the point of instruction.

Raymond was also assured of our discretion: ie that the information he shared with us would be handled with sensitivity and not shared with anyone other than his barrister.  This was very important to Raymond, as he did not want his employer to find out about the drink driving charge until absolutely necessary.

At the Nottingham Magistrates’ Court hearing, Raymond was disqualified for a period of 14 months, to be reduced by 25% on completion of the drink drive rehabilitation course.  He told us he was very pleased with the professional services of both Forrest Williams and his barrister, who had supported him from first telephone call through to the court hearing.

Raymond thanked everyone at Forrest Williams for their support at a very difficult time and also for their discretion in ensuring that all telephone and email contacts were made with due regard for his concern that the motoring matter remain confidential.  We assured Raymond that, once he had instructed us, his concerns became our concerns.

As Forrest Williams are well aware, it is not only outcomes that our clients are focused on.  Equally important for many of the people who approach us are the way in which they will be treated as they encounter the court system and how well they will be supported as the hearing date approaches.
