what a solicitor Stephen is

I contacted Stephen about my driving offences I had 3 charges. Carless fail to stop and fail to report he kept me re assured and even replied on a Sunday when it’s his day of to keep me updated. I walked away with points and a fine when I thought I was getting banned. He is by far the best motoring solicitor I’ve ever met hands down. Stephen is the guy

Drink driving charge

I had the misfortune to be stopped by a christmas time road block by the police who were carring out there annual clamp down on potential drink drivers. Believing i wasnt over the limit although i had taken a drink i thought i would be ok. How wrong i was, i failed the roadside test and the test back at the station, and was duly charged with driving with excess alcohol.
i found Stephen online and decided to have him represent me, throughout the process i found him to be very helpful, and professional in every respect. i would have no hesitation in recomending his company to anyone who finds themselves in a similar position.

Escaped Disqualification:)!!

I was facing a 6 months disqualification and a hefty fine with the number of offences I was convicted for. But of course with Stephen as my solicitor the decision was overturned and he made sure that I got away with a much favourable decision. I would 100% recommend Stephen if your stuck!

Drink and drive

When I reached out to Stephen regarding my drink and drive case, he listened attentively and thoroughly discussed the details of my situation. Afterward, he agreed to take on my case and provided a clear quote for his services. Stephen gave straightforward advice on what to expect and how the verdict would likely unfold. Thanks to his guidance, I ended up saving thousands of pounds by taking wrong approach in court.
He’s highly professional, knows exactly what needs to be done, and is also very approachable.
I definitely recommend for motor offences and driving under

Helped me get through a difficult time

Stephen is very knowledgeable in his chosen profession. I was in a very difficult position as I have an annual driving license due to illness and was a very careless in speeding excessively on a motorway. I could have potentially lost my driving license permanently but Stephen listened carefully to my issues and identified the important points to raise during my court hearing. As a result of his hard work I received a disqualification for far less time than I was expecting. He’s a genuine person and will give you realistic advice for your offence and make sure you are fully prepared if you have to appear before magistrates. I would definitely recommend him.

Excellent Solicitor

Mr Oldham is a very composed and honest person. You will tell that he is not after your money. He will become part of your daily life and explain to you what to expect. Just a family man. I was expecting a prison sentence, but now I am writing this for you as a free person. Trust him and you will be fine.

Stephen was absolutely outstanding from start to finish!

After receiving confusing and conflicting advice from several firms, Stephen cut through the noise with his clear, expert guidance. He simplified the entire process, providing me with a solid understanding of my situation and detailing exactly what evidence I needed to gather to build the strongest possible case for court. His knowledge, patience, and professionalism were second to none.

He walked me through every step, explained what to expect, and ensured I felt fully prepared. His professionalism in the courtroom was truly impressive sharp, confident, and in complete control of the situation. Thanks to his incredible support and expertise, I was able to retain my licence despite being in a very difficult position.

I cannot recommend Stephen highly enough. He is not just a solicitor he’s a lifesaver, a true expert in his field, and someone who genuinely cares about his clients.

Stephen was great throughout our case. He kept in contact, always updating us on the progress from beginning to end. Before we even stood in court he had negotiated a lesser charge with CPS. He clearly laid out all of our options and possible outcomes and in the end I walked away with my license having originally faced a ban. Highly Recommend!

Very good dealing with Stephen, didn't sugar coat anything and managed to get the prosecution to agree to a lesser charge which reduced my ban considerably and kept me in my job. I was represented by Lucy Whitaker who spoke on my behalf and was excellent.
