The charge of dangerous driving was dismissed.
I was charged with dangerous driving under dubious circumstances, as it was claimed that I was exceeding the speed limit in the M8 roadworks area (specifically, 70 in a 40/50 zone). Having never encountered a situation like this before, I felt uncertain about my options and worried about the potential loss of my licence. I reached out to Scullion Law and was impressed by their professional and practical guidance. Consequently, I decided to enlist Chris and Darren to represent me in my case. Throughout the proceedings, I was able to communicate with Darren, who offered valuable advice and support. The team effectively succeeded in having the charge diminished, leading to a penalty of 4 points and a fine, which, when taking everything into account, was a positive result. I would recommend that anyone facing a similar situation reach out to them.

My experience with Scullion Law
Anna MacKay dealt with my case leading up to the trial date and she handled all matters with great care and responsibility. She was excellent in keeping my mind at peace on the work that was happening behind the scenes. Due to a sudden change in circumstances Anna could no longer attend my trial date and asked man of the hour Darren Fleming to step in. My man Darren walked into court on the day of trial and had my 4 charges and the case binned before lunch time. I thought i would be defending myself in front of a jury by lunch time that day instead, i was having lunch in town and a pint to celebrate.
If i was to be convicted for even 1 of the 4 charges i had been accused of my life would have been put on hold for the worse for the foreseeable future.
I thank Anna MacKay, Darren Fleming and Scullion Law’s team for the amazing life changing service they provide.

Exceptional representation and advice throughout
Darren Fleming, from the offset, put me at ease and explained procedure and potential outcomes thoroughly. Clearly his support had a positive outcome regarding the punishment afforded and I am forever in his debt. Thank you so much, exceptional service

The best
It’s difficult to put into words the support i received from Stephanie grieve and her team , kind and caring and passionate about helping whoever they meet .
The experience of the whole case would’ve been so overwhelming however having this understanding and wonderful team of people it made the whole process a whole lot easier .
You can truly tell that’s Stephanie cares about her clients and this shows in the fact that she chooses to get to know each client and does everything in her power to make sure that you are looked after from start to finish.
If you truly want a solicitor who will give you next level service and get you the best of the best in all aspects of your case then Stephanie grieve is the person to ask for .
I know I’ll never need Stephanie’s services again however if I ever do I know exactly the call to make and I can’t thank her enough for all she has done for me throughout , whether it be updates , legal advice or even just a conversation .
Part of the team was Aimee Urquhart and although there were only a few conversations with Aimee she brought quality of service of her own , kind hearted and bubbly despite the situation and understanding and took the time to go over so many things with me , she was very organised and detailed with a very refreshing manner that allowed me the peace of mind to be able to process and speak my facts and situation .
During the process a new member was added to the team another paralegal named Amy/aimee who possessed those same qualities, both of these were very refreshing to speak with and both as fantastic sadly being new I couldn’t find the other Amy/aimee whichever it may be , or she would’ve had had her own review so we’ll just give her an honourable mention .
And last but not least Darren Fleming
A stand in for a day but from one conversation I knew he shared the values of Stephanie, he was kind compassionate and extremely knowledgeable he made what should’ve been a nervous kind of day a more relaxed time and I thank him for taking the time to help in any way he could .
If anyone ever wonders who to pick as a legal firm to represent them .
Well I think we all know my view on the matter . Scullion law was the highest rated law firm I found and I can honestly see why , outstanding from start to finish no matter who you speak to , and in my case we went from Patricia who was scheduling all my appointments with her great sense of humour and really welcoming aura to Stephanie who would quite clearly go above and beyond to help .
I thank all of the above
And I hope that anyone who ever needs help , does the right thing I picks scullion law and these people to do right by them .
You won’t regret it
