READ THIS IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS...
If you’re reading this because you’re in a tricky situation with a driving charge, stop panicking and call Kenway Miller now!
Bold opening, right? But trust me, it’s no exaggeration.
“Surely this must be fake?”
Nope, this is as real as it gets.
“Must be under the influence writing this?”
Only under the influence of sheer relief and happiness after my case was dismissed earlier this week!
Let me walk you through my story. In December 2023, I was arrested for a serious driving and felt certain I’d lose my license for at least 12 months. As a business owner, the thought of losing my license made me question how I could even function. I was ready to throw in the towel and accept my fate. With evidence piling up (or so I thought), I didn’t see a way out.
Fast forward to December 2024: case dismissed, charges dropped!
This outcome is entirely thanks to the powerhouse that is Kenway Miller—three A-players who worked together like the Avengers of legal defence: Hilary, Matthew, and Mr. Lucas. Here’s why you need them on your side:
Initial Contact: Hilary the Hero
From the moment I spoke to Hilary, I knew I’d found the right people. She’s the kind of person you can tell anything to within five seconds of meeting her—non-judgmental, empathetic, and genuinely interested in helping. She calmly walked me through how Kenway Miller operates, gave me a realistic overview of what to expect, and made me feel confident that they’d fight my case with 100% effort, no matter the evidence.
I’d also spoken to another firm, Freeman and Co, but felt like they were more interested in locking me into a commitment than actually helping me. I hadn’t even received my charge letter, and they were already pushing for payment. By contrast, Kenway Miller told me to wait for charges before paying anything because, as Matthew put it, “Until we see the evidence, there’s little to do.” This honesty and transparency sealed the deal.
Getting to Work: Matthew the Mastermind
Once the charges arrived, Matthew got everything in place and started digging into the facts. It was clear he knew exactly what he was doing—professional, meticulous, and calm under pressure.
As the case progressed, things got messy. Court dates were shifted because of unavailable witnesses, incomplete evidence, and procedural hiccups from the CPS. At times, it felt like I was living in a low-budget BBC legal drama (you know, the kind they air after 11 p.m.). But through all the twists and turns, Matthew kept everything on track and kept me informed.
Courtroom Showdown: Mr. Lucas the Legend
On the big day, I finally met Mr. Lucas, who stepped in as my counsel. The man was unflappable. Facing a difficult judge and a tenacious prosecutor, he remained calm, composed, and laser-focused. He outlined his strategy clearly and explained everything in a way that made me feel like I had the upper hand, even when I doubted myself.
When the judge seemed unwilling to budge, I thought it was game over. But Mr. Lucas’s precision and poise prevailed. After an intense day in court (we wrapped up after 6 p.m.!), the case was dismissed.
Why Choose Kenway Miller?
Kenway Miller is the dream team:
• Hilary: The empathetic and sharp guide who puts you at ease immediately.
• Matthew: The strategist who keeps everything moving forward despite the chaos.
• Mr. Lucas: The courtroom warrior who turns the tide in your favour.
Their communication was excellent, their pricing was transparent, and they never made promises they couldn’t keep. They simply worked relentlessly to get me the best outcome—and they delivered.
Final Thoughts
Hopefully, I’ll never need their services again, but if I do, I won’t hesitate for a second. If you’re in a situation where your license and future are on the line, stop searching and call Kenway Miller. They’ll treat your case with care, fight for you like their life depends on it, and might even give you your own little legal drama to star in.

unbelieveable service and posative results. Won 3 out of 3 cases
I could not recoment Hilary Kenway and Mathew Miller Highly Enough. They know there stuff and have the best barristers available to fight the case.
On first merits its hard to imagine wining a case if you have blown over the limit, surely its a forgon conclusion, however this firm specialise in "Technical defenses" or "loopholes". Given around over 90% of people plead guilt, the police often do not fill in the correct forms or even turn up for court.
The first case i won took my barrister about 12 minutes to win the case as the prosicution police did not turn up. The next case was thrown out as was the last. Hilary is amazing and there contact list is first class. It might sound expensive to be spending £15k-£20k per case but cheaper than retaining a driver for a yes if you decide to plead guilty

Fantastic service and brilliant preparation
Hilary was very professional and helped me with my no insurance special reason argument by preparing it for the barrister. Mr Ashley Barnes who represented me was also able to articulate the situation to the courts and made them understand the situation.

Simply excellent.
Kenway Miller have been amazing and we would not hesitate in recommending their services.
Our son was facing a minimum 1 year ban for a drug driving offence related to cannabis use. It was close to 6 months after he was arrested and we had heard nothing back from the courts, so assumed the matter was not being pursued.
Unfortunately we were wrong. He received a court summons just before the six month mark. On the morning We received the summons I contacted Matthew for advice. He was extremely helpful and informative, spelling out the possible opinions open to us in terms of defending our son's case.
After a couple of weeks of agonizing over what to do, we decided to to use the services or Kenway Miller and we are very pleased we did. We called them back and initially spoke with Hilary. She was also very helpful, attentive and professional. She gathered all the required information in a prompt and effective manner and was empathetic and non judgemental with our son.
The ultimate upshot of appointing Kenway Miller was that our son's case was not pursued by the CPS after his first court hearing. We have no doubt that without their input that this would not have been the positive result we had hoped for. We can't thank them enough for the excellent work they did on his behalf.

Outstanding service and results
If you have a driving offence Kenway Miller are the dream team you NEED representing you.
If you are reading this then I assume you need representation. I can only recommend that you stop searching right now and pick up the phone to these guys…. You will be glad you did.
Hilary was always available to calm, reassure and support me. Several times I called her to talk about the case and she gave me the strength to carry on, sharing with me wise tips on how to manage the overwhelming anxiety that I was experiencing whilst waiting for my court date. She made me feel not so alone or scared and gave me hope. She is an amazing woman.
Matthew is extremely knowledgable on legal processes and how to build a strong case using his in-depth knowledge of the legal system. He is professionally brilliant, caring and non judgemental. He was always prompt in replying to any questions I sent him by text or email. His good communication skills proved to be emotionally invaluable for me, as I had so many questions and fears. I felt I was able to trust and rely on for him for sage advice and guidance.
They both worked so very my case, the commitment they bring to defending their clients is one I can wholeheartedly recommend.
Mr P Lucas must also get a mention here, as he is the barrister you want and need to represent you should you ever be in this scenario. He is incredibly knowledgable upon legal matters, court procedures and police protocol. A fastidious professionally brilliant barrister who left no stone unturned. Mr Lucas has a lovely calm demeanour, and is a caring and approachable professional. This I was greatly appreciative of as he gave me reassurance , hope and comfort whilst waiting anxiously at the court.
From start to finish I felt in was in safe hands with Kenway Miller. The end result of No further action only goes to prove just how amazing these three are.
Eternally grateful to them.

Highly Recommended
Pulled over by the police with Automatic Number Plate Recognition on their patrol car flagging up no insurance, (subsequently, insurance was found to be correct), was roadside tested with a drugswipe which proved positive and was arrested and taken to a Police Investigation Centre where blood was taken for analysis. Notified nearly 6 months later that the blood was over the limit for THC and was to appear at Magistrates court 2 months later.
Scoured the web for the best legal team and eventually having talked with many we talked with Hilary & Mathew at Kenway Miller who reassured us that they and their team were at the very very top of their game and believe me they are.
Magistrates court came along and a competent Barrister guided us through the day. Pleading Not Guilty, a trial date was set for 4 months later. With 2 weeks to go, the trial was vacated because of a lack of court resources and the trial was rearranged for 6 months later.
Six months later, with the trial imminent, the CPS had still not disclosed all their evidence to the defence despite being directed to do so by the original Magistrates some 10 months earlier. As a result, Kenway Millers forensics team still had not had the opportunity to check all the toxicology reports on the blood samples.
The day before the trial the CPS disclosed that the prosecution’s main witness, the arresting officer, would not now attend as they were busy elsewhere and that they would be applying for an adjournment of the trial. On the day of the trial, was represented by the brilliant barrister Mr Lucas. Mr Lucas’s knowledge of the court procedures, his presentation around the non-disclosure of the evidence and his arguments concerning the late notification of non-attendance of the prosecution’s main witness eventually led to the magistrates conferring for what must have been 30 seconds before dismissing the application for an adjournment and the case was dismissed.
I cannot emphasise enough that Kenway Miller are the team to go to for support for any motoring offences – Hilary, always at the end of the phone, in control and giving reassurance on any concerns, Mathew, again always available with his case management and in-depth knowledge of the legal system and processes, the toxicology team analysing what reports had been produced and barrister Mr Lucas with his brilliant analytical skills, legal knowledge & presentations.
Thank you all so much.

Kenway Miller - THE best Solicitors to have on your side!
Thanks to Kenway Miller, Matthew and Hillary, my close to 12 month ordeal finally ended in my favour. It felt like a lifetime of uncertainty, but with Matthew and Hillary fighting in my corner for justice I felt hopeful every step of the way
After being arrested, having a blood specimen taken without my consent and spending the night in a cell, I was beyond distraught. My career, studies and future hung unsteadily in front of me and I felt I had nowhere to turn.
After scouring the internet, I contacted Kenway Miller immediately. Hillary immediately put me at ease, showed a great capacity for caring and spent time speaking with me as I all but broke down over the phone. She gave me sage advise - she said nothing could be done until/if the results came back and that I had to take care of myself in the meantime. I contacted other Solicitors too who also specialised in drug driving cases but I was put off as most of them wanted me to pay in advance for packages etc when Kenway Miller had done the opposite and rightfully, honestly told me that nothing could be done until I was charged.
Five months and three weeks later, I got the dreaded court summons in the post. I once again contacted Kenway Miller and immediately spoke with Matthew who discussed how to proceed. Not once were any false promises made, nor were my worries pushed aside as Matthew spoke with me. Bear in mind this was over the bank holidays, yet I wasn’t waiting around for long.
Magistrates Court was horrendous but the barrister that Kenway Miller had provided me with was so calm and understanding and he rightfully pushed for me to be seen to enter my not guilty plea and then spent time explaining everything to me, even going as far as to sit with me in a room afterwards as I collected my bearings.
Over the next following months Matthew continued to keep me in the loop and update me via email to let me know how things were progressing and any time I called Kenway Miller, Hillary was ready to speak to me and give me her time. Regardless of how much I was panicking, Hillary was a true pillar of strength.
A few weeks before I was to attend court, I received the best phone call of my life from Matthew who had told me that CPS were dropping my case, no doubt thanks to Kenway Miller who were constantly fighting for me and rightfully breathing down CPS’ neck. I can’t explain how good that call felt, and immediately all the stress and burden from near enough the past year felt like a weight lifted from my shoulders.
In the darkest period of my life, Kenway Miller were the only source of light. Yes, I had to pay a fee, but this is nothing, a mere drop in the ocean, compared to the freedom and simple joy I have regained now that this gloomy cloud has moved on and that’s all thanks to the hard work and dedication of Kenway Miller.
I’m leaving this review in case anyone else ever finds themselves in the same unfortunate position as I was once in because I would not hesitate to recommend Kenway Miller, quite possibly the best solicitors (who in turn have access to the best barristers) to have on your side and two people who would truly fight in your corner for YOU.
Matthew and Hillary, you are two absolute gems. I cannot ever thank you enough for how you both saved me.

Hilary is a lifesaver
I was recommended Kenway Miller by a family friend. Hilary took the time to listen and understand my case and set my mind at rest. We agreed on a plan to best represent my case, and I was made aware of the best and worst outcomes, so I knew what to expect. The letter that was written on my behalf removed the need for me having to go to court, and the result was far better than I expected! I would strongly recommend Hilary and Kenway Miller to anyone.
