What Does O'Neill Defence Do?

Every case is different, and we look closely at the details before we advise you. 

There are several ways we may be able to challenge a drink driving charge, including: 

  • Faulty or poorly calibrated breathalyser equipment 
  • Incorrect police procedure during the stop or arrest 
  • The hip flask defence — if you drank alcohol after driving, not before 
  • Duress or emergency circumstances that led to you driving 

Even where a full defence is not possible, we work hard to reduce the impact of any penalty — including fighting to keep you on the road where possible

Frequently Asked Questions

The police may arrest you, ask you to attend a voluntary interview, or both. In some cases, you may be asked to leave the family home while the matter is investigated. 

Yes, in some cases. Courts can convict based on a single witness account if they find it credible. This is why having a solicitor who can challenge the evidence and cross-examine witnesses properly is so important. 

False allegations do happen, and we take them seriously. We work to gather evidence, identify inconsistencies in the other party's account, and present a clear, honest case on your behalf. You should not have to face false accusations without proper support.

Not necessarily straight away. An allegation of domestic abuse can lead to contact restrictions being put in place, sometimes very quickly. 

Immediately. The earlier we get involved, the more we can do to help.
