Expert legal Advice
Road Traffic Offences
Here at Mulholland Law, we are strong advocates of the presumption of innocence and the right of all citizens to a fair trial, irrespective of who they are or what they are being accused of.
Road traffic law in Ireland is complex and strictly enforced. A conviction can result in penalty points, heavy fines, disqualification, increased insurance premiums, or even imprisonment. At Mulholland Law, we provide skilled, proactive defence for clients facing the full spectrum of motoring offences — from minor infractions to the most serious allegations.
Our Expertise
We represent clients in the District Court, Circuit Court and High Court in all road traffic matters, including drink and drug driving offences (such as Section 4 and Section 5 allegations), challenges to evidential breath, blood or urine results, medical defences, and cases involving procedural irregularities. We also defend allegations of dangerous or careless driving, including serious collisions and cases requiring forensic or expert analysis.
Our work extends to cases involving no insurance or no driving licence, where the risk of mandatory disqualification can arise, as well as speeding and penalty point offences, including incorrect service of notices, fixed charge issues, and arguments based on exceptional hardship. We handle cases involving leaving the scene of an accident or “hit and run” allegations, Garda interviews, identification disputes and procedural fairness concerns. We also assist clients charged with driving while disqualified, including matters involving licence verification or contempt implications.
Licence Restoration & Disqualification Appeals
Disqualification can have severe consequences for employment, family commitments, and daily life. We regularly advise and represent clients bringing early applications for licence restoration and applications based on exceptional or particular circumstances. These applications often carry urgency, and we guide clients through each step with discretion and precision.
