About Us

Auriga Advocates have over 60 years experience in road traffic law and registred with the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority No. 614279). There is very little that we do not know about the tricks of the trade. Andrea has over 20 years experience prosecuting road traffic offences and was for many years a fatal road traffic specialist. She understands the prosecution procedures and failings better than most defence solicitors and can use the insight to your advantage.

We have a vast experience of running trials from both the defence and prosecution view point so are able to identify the weaknesses in evidence, our extensive knowledge of road traffic law enables us to identify the issues in your case.

Auriga Core Values

Auriga advocates care about motorists who are facing motoring offences. The criminal system is daunting for most people unfortunate enough to have to go through it. They often feel it is unfair and bias in favour of prosecution and they are justified in doing so. Too many firms are fee focused building fees by adding services or pricing fees extremely high and disproportionate to the service provided. Often motorists are charged for a service which is unnecessary and one they could easily do themselves.

Andrea wants to level that criminal system playing field. She published her book “Defend Your Licence” in March 2016 to offer practical legal advice to motorists in simple clear concise terms which are easily understood. It provides more information than most websites and advises how to represent yourself as well as when it is appropriate and save to do so. She wants to give all motorists a fighting chance in court.

Auriga’s services are designed to provide the best possible advice and support to you our client at reasonable and affordable prices. We stage our services so that if your case is discontinued as a result of our representations (as many are) you have only paid for the service used.

How We Run Your Case

Andrea will oversee all cases to ensure the highest standards are maintained. All her team put you their client first. They will keep you up to date regularly on your case. They will explain the law and procedure in terms that you can understand. No matter how many questions you ask you will be given prompt answers.

We will thoroughly review the evidence against you and offer genuine honest advice with no hype or false promises. We will consider every possible defence available to you and develop your defence evidentially by obtaining witness statements, expert reports,CCTV and any other evidence necessary in order to develop the strongest possible case on your behalf. Often we are so good at this that when we make representations to the CPS they discontinue without the need for a trial.

We will instruct solicitor advocates or barristers who are experienced in road traffic to represent you at court. We have established a good relationship with many over the years and have a panel of outstanding solicitor-advocates and barristers.


Why Instruct Us?

There are a lot of solicitors out there who are as qualified as ours, but what does that tell you? Road traffic law is not taught at degree level nor is it part of the professional examinations. Most solicitors learn the law on road traffic on the job. Most general criminal solicitors dabble with the odd case here and there. They are not specialists.

Some specialists in the field promote themselves by celebrity endorsement or by stating they are the best in the country to justify extremely high fees. We do neither we are outstanding at what we do. We differ because we offer excellent advice with genuine support (at no extra cost) and we do not charge extortionate fees.

We care about our clients we are down to earth people without airs and graces. We listen to our clients so you can rest assured that if you do ask us to represent you, you will get not only outstanding advice but empathy and support throughout your entire case.

We are passionate about providing our client’s with an outstanding service at all times.
