Convicted in Absence

Convicted in Absence

Resolving Convictions Made Without Your Knowledge

Being convicted of a driving offence without attending court can be alarming, particularly if you were unaware of the proceedings. At Thomas Boyd Whyte Solicitors, we assist clients in setting aside convictions made in their absence and ensuring their case is properly heard.

This situation often arises where correspondence has not been received or there has been a misunderstanding about court dates. In many cases, it may be possible to make a statutory declaration to have the conviction overturned and the matter reopened.

Our team will act quickly to assess your circumstances, explain your options, and take the necessary steps to protect your position.

If you have been convicted in absence, contact Thomas Boyd Whyte Solicitors immediately for urgent legal advice.
