    I don't have them on me now bud but ill pm them late when I find out.
    Should both of us not go to boards beers or was yours a different ban. I got 3 years and 400 fine. Me poor bike was in some state a few weeks ago when I asked two of me mates to check it and bring it for a spin. 220 to get sorted. Nephew was trying to get pretend spin pics on it and busted it taking it out of the garage.

    Any particular reason you don't want to use Pat again? Id have even thought using a solicitor who is familiar with your case and worked on it would be a better bet than someone who isn't.

    A lot of people think Pat is very good at what he does, iv heard that from a lot of people over the years.

    Anyone have experience with a solicitor with actually getting their license back and succeeding though?

    Mark Walsh with Peter o Connor and sons is meant to be good?

    Experiences please :)

    Thanks lads

    Newell Gillen Cunningham are a great firm in my opinion and Kenny is one of the best solicitors down around these parts. Fiona is great also.

    Just me and Pat had a bit of a disagreement and the only information he would have on the case would be I got caught over the limit and got banned and he represented me there that day.

    Is Pat really the best in the city? If thats the case I'll have to swallow my pride and see the man

    I know yeah i should have just went myself to plead guilty but i went to see if there was any technicalities so he went through it and basically said your f*cked so he charged me for that visit and said he would go to court for me too included in the price as i dont live in waterford.
