The Road Traffic Lawyers in the Highlands

Michael Lyon Solicitors Limited is a team of highly specialised solicitors dealing exclusively with the defence of criminal road traffic matters. Our practice has been restricted to the defence of road traffic cases since its inception in 2007.

Whilst many of our cases hit the headlines, we remain committed to ensuring all clients of the firm receive advice and representation of the highest standard. The firm prides itself on providing professional and ethical advice at all times.

In recognition of our trusted expertise, we are regularly invited to provide judicial training to Justices of the Peace on matters of road traffic law. Michael Lyon is also the accredited Consultant on the Road Traffic Offences and Disqualification section of The Stair Memorial Encyclopaedia, an invaluable academic text for solicitors practising road traffic law in Scotland. No other firm in Scotland has received such accreditation. Over the years we have represented well-known sports stars, celebrities, Police Officers, Traffic Police Officers, politicians, solicitors, King's Counsel, television stars and everyone in between.

While our initial advice is always free, please note that we are a bespoke private client firm and do not offer legal aid.

From a minor speeding charge on the NC500 route, to causing serious injury by careless or dangerous driving, we have secured acquittals for our clients in every imaginable charge under the road traffic legislation.

We have extensive experience in Inverness, Tain, Fort William and Perth Sheriff and Justice of the Peace Courts.

We have represented thousands of motorists over the past 25 years and, should your case require our assistance, we will offer our services on a fixed-fee basis. You will see from our searchable track record below that we have successfully defended your case before.
