It is important that police station or hospital procedure video footage is requested by the firm immediately even if you have yet to be charged.

In one previous case in Bromley the police deleted the CCTV evidence within 4 days. 

Video footage evidence is vital for your case for several reasons

  • Our medical experts or scientific team may need to view the video from the police station or the hospital procedure to provide a report to support your case
  • If we do not ask the police to retain the video footage the police may delete it which can impact on our ability to prepare your defence and your chances of success
  • The video footage may show mistakes in arrest, booking in and specimen procedures which may result in dismissal of the charge.
  • If the video is deleted after the police receive our written request this may avoid a driving ban as we can argue the police were made aware by your solicitor that this was required for the defence

In one case at Taunton the client avoided a driving ban because the police deleted CCTV from the breath test room after we had sent a request asking for this to be retained.

The Court held the client could not have a fair trial and dismissed the charge. 

This shows how instructing this firm quickly at an early stage of the case can avoid a driving ban.
