TAXI SOLICITORS FOR DRIVERS, PROPRIETORS AND OPERATORS
At Regan Peggs Solicitors, we have extensive experience defending Taxi drivers with any potential motoring offences. We understand that drivers, owners and proprietors in the Hackney carriage and private hire industries rely upon their licenses to make a living and that the refusal, suspension or revocation of a taxi license can be disastrous for both businesses and individuals.
Our specialist experience in taxi industry law means that we understand the unique pressures and regulations of the sector. We can advise you and your business on everything from license applications and appeals to potential criminal allegations.
We can also negotiate the removal of unreasonable conditions that may be imposed on a licence and which prevent your business from making a reasonable profit.
Contact our taxi solicitors today for a confidential discussion of your circumstances and to find out how we can help.
