A Road Traffic Expert Indeed!

A Great Solicitor and a Road Traffic Expert indeed! I was charged with a DUI offence, after going through a series of other legal services, Richard Freeman’s name strongly came up, and was recommended. I got in touch, Richard and Team displayed an excellent sense of communication and understanding of the case. Richard is a great listener and a solicitor that actually reply to text messages (unheard of😀).

Richard succeeded in getting a positive outcome for me. Please, if you are unfit to drive don’t; but if you find yourself in an unfortunate position, due to no fault of yours, I will recommend Richard Freeman. Thanks Richard for your humanity and service!

Had an very complicated case of being under the influence whilst in charge of a motor vehicle. Was looking at a two year ban which would have badly affected my business. Richard and his partner Willie turned out to be superstars when the fiscal was persuaded to drop the charge. I don't know how he managed it but he went to lengths no other solicitor would go to. They have the knowledge that others don't and they get the results. What a start to 2025. Extremely grateful to both of you.

Traffic Incident

Contacted Richard Freeman & co due to a reported serious traffic incident.Having met Richard who fully explained everything in great detail. After several dealings with the court and procurator fiscal, Richard managed to get a favourable outcome. I can’t thank him enough and highly recommend his company. Well worthy of the 5 star rating.

I would highly recommend RTE.

I would highly recommend RTE.
Everything was clearly explained from the beginning.
Communication was excellent. The admin team responded to my emailed queries quickly and Richard Freeman phoned me several times to reassure me about aspects I was worried about.
I was well represented in court by Mr Alan Watt who effectively put across the mitigating circumstances around my drink driving charge so that I was fortunate enough,despite having quite a high blood alcohol level, to receive a driving disqualification of only 12 months ,reduced to 9 as the sheriff accepted the invitation to put me forward for the driving rehabilitation course.
I would recommend RTE to anyone,especially those like me who are very anxious of police and court proceedings.

Amazing!

Richard is just the best! I didn’t think I had a chance of keeping my licence or at least getting points but he got me off, not guilty! I still can’t believe it and I’ll be eternally grateful for that as my car is my lifeline. It was well worth the money and I’d 100% recommend to anyone needing help to save their licence!!

Outstanding Representation!

Mr. Freeman is at the top of his game and brings an amazing amount of experience to the courtroom and has an amazing network of experts to leverage for testimony.

His admin team is also very responsive and communication is consistent and clear.

Thank you all for your help with my case!

I can't thank Road Traffic Expert…

I can't thank Road Traffic Expert enough for helping me avoid a speeding ticket! From the start, their professionalism and expertise were evident. They clearly explained the process, guided me through every step, and knew exactly how to handle my case with precision. Their attention to detail and deep understanding of traffic laws made all the difference. The outcome was better than I could have hoped for, and I'm so relieved! If you're ever in a tough spot with a traffic violation, I highly recommend their services. A truly outstanding team!

Walked free from drinking in charge

In January 2024 I was sitting in my car in the middle of the night when the police came and smelled alcohol from me, I was breathalysed which failed. Then I got arrested and I was 2.5 times above the limit, at that point after fund out what kind of charges I could be facing I was completely hopeless as it could be driving ban, huge penalty, Evan going to jail.
I just thought looking for a lawyer would be my best chance to minimise all this nightmare, that was the point when I found (Road Traffic Experts) and believe me they were like an Angel sent from Heaven. I'm so grateful to Mr. Richard Freeman who is an absolute Genius, he was a very truthful person who never promised me the world but helped me to understand what my chances could be and the steps that should be taken to achieve the best results and it was just before he found a detail so small that just a great professional could notice it they call it a ( technicality). And boom I couldn't believe when the main day came, it was a experienced solicitor from the RTE that was representing me and once again with great experience and dedication after been stand hard against all the fight that the prosecution was giving I just walk free from all charges, how's that sound? Amazing.!!!
This company was 5 stars at all times Evan the office keeping me informed at all times of court dates and times with reminders a couple days before, they help me to adjourn a trial so I could go on my holiday, honestly I couldn't be any happier and can't recommend this company any more. Thanks to all

Dangerous Driving Aberdeen

Decided to employ Richard freeman to defend me on a dangerous driving charge that the basis was speed had reached 104mph.

My experience was not a good one at my initial hearing I was represented by a local solicitor they had passed my case too who didn’t even know my name and had no background to the case.

At this point I should have looked to change. Little to no progress made on the case no activie discussions with the PF to try and offer a lesser charge.

The morning of the trial a Mr McKay came to meet me and advised the fiscal did not like him or the firm and that it wouldn’t be possible he would make a deal. Was advised the fiscal was not one that “liked the firm” and this was going to go against me. Despite this a plea was offered and swiftly rejected.

I then asked if we should plead guilty to lesson the ban or if we should proceed to trial at which point I was told I don’t know / can’t tell you. The fee of £3600 was in my view high and for this I would have liked some legal advice about proceeding to a trial as I still today don’t believe the speed was dangerous

I would not use this firm if your from Aberdeen or your case will be held here you would be better placed with a local company who have working relationships with the court.

I pleaded guilty in the end and the sheriff gave me the minimum ban and a fair fine he was very reasonable and I regret not running the trial as believe he may have accepted careless as there were higher speeds that day who escaped bans.

I have now spent my savings on defending this charge where I would have been better of defending myself and using the money for taxis.

Highly recommend

I used Richard after an unfortunate event which involved drink driving and leaving the scene of a crime. Communication was always easy and information was clear no promises were made about the outcome of the case although I was always reassured that he would do his best and that is exactly what he did. Richard done the unimaginable and helped me keep my license which I did not believe was possible. I cannot recommend him enough for anyone who finds there selves in a situation like this
