Welcome to Rescue My Licence
We at the JWP Solicitors established the 'rescuemylicence' website in order to extend our services to those who find themselves in the criminal justice system, perhaps for the first time, facing road traffic offences and uncertain of the best way forward.

You may be on bail following arrest and interview at the police station or charged at the police station and bailed to attend court, perhaps a notice of intended prosecution or summons has been received in the post.

rescuemylicence is a division of JWP solicitors which is regulated by The Solicitor's Regulatory Authority.

motoring defence solicitors


  • Are you facing a drink driving charge and a mandatory minimum 12 months ban or more?
  • Have you accumulated 12 or more points and been summonsed to court as a 'totter'?

The law is complex and technical. Often prosecutions are flawed and the rules of evidence and or procedure have been broken. Defendants often have defences to offences and do not even know it.

  • Were the police entitled to do what they did when they did it?
  • Are the prosecution able to prove each and every element of the offence?
  • Is the evidence that the prosecution want to rely on admissible in court?
  • Does the legislation provide me with a specific defence?

  • If you have to concede a guilty plea what will the implications be for you?

  • Can you negotiate the best possible basis with the prosecution?

  • Are you able to present a credible and successful mitigation?

  • Would you know what
  • exceptional hardship or
  • special reasons are and how they can help you to avoid disqualification?

We deal with advising and representing defendants at the police station and at court, with challenging evidence and procedure in order to secure the best possible result for our clients. We deal with all road traffic and criminal cases including:

  • Drink driving and in charge cases.
  • Failing to provide a sample for analysis
  • Failing to stop at the scene of an accident
  • Failing to report an accident.
  • Driving without due care and attention
  • Dangerous driving
  • Causing Death by dangerous driving
  • Speeding cases
  • Applying to remove disqualification
  • Special reason arguments to avoid disqualification or points
  • Exceptional hardship arguments in totting cases.
