“I contacted Kenway Miller Solicitors back in early 2015. I spoke to very polite/knowledgeable and helpful lady named Hillary, as soon as the conversation got underway I knew instantly I had found the right legal team to assist me in my court battles. I tried a very well known law firm previously, who offered very little reassurance in my case. As the case went ahead I was kept fully informed and advised every step of the way. My options were also well advised and explained in detail. My case went on for over one year and was full of none stop obstacle’s/hurdles from the prosecution/police. Matthew compiled a great defence for me even though all odds were stacked against me. Matthew attended Bolton Crown Court on my behalf, battled it out and WON my case.”
Mr C Jackson, Bolton Crown Court
Mr Jackson contacted Kenway Miller a short time before his trial in the Magistrates Court when he was still being represented by an extremely well-known firm of motoring solicitors. Dissatisfied with the level of their fees and the fact they had advised him to plead guilty, he decided to instruct us to defend him instead. Unfortunately he was convicted following trial in the Magistrates Court partly because there had not been sufficient time for us to properly prepare his case before trial and obtain expert evidence. An appeal to the Crown Court was lodged and the disqualification imposed was suspended. The appeal took some months to be heard and an expert report was obtained in relation to the performance of the Intoxilyser device. This suggested that the instructions given by the police about how to blow into the device may have been the reason for its failure to detect a valid specimen of breath. Mr Jackson’s appeal against conviction was allowed.
