Mobile Phone Offences

What if I am accused of using the phone and I wasn’t?

Levy and Co Solicitors can help you defend if you have been stopped by the police for this. We have a proven track record of successfully defending Clients and can collect evidence from mobile telephone companies and other witnesses in order to defend such an allegation.

What is the penalty for committing this offence?
The usual penalty is 6 penalty points and a fine of £200. However in certain circumstances you may be required to go to Court, for example if you already have 9 penalty points and the Court is thinking of disqualifying you, or perhaps the police felt that the manner of your driving was of concern. Levy and Co. Solicitors can assist with all aspects of your representation.
