They are Gray Hooper Holt and specialise in Fare Evasion. I shall ask them their success rate and post back. -
Fare evasion help
Stevefoxy replied to Stevefoxy's topic in Public transport (Trains, tubes and buses)
So I've been in touch with some solicitors who want £1500 to represent me and are confident they can prevent a criminal record. They informed me that if First Capital Connect have applied for a court summons this will already be on an eDRB. Would it be a good idea to pay them and do this or to try and get Legal Aid? I have no idea.. -

You're right. However the letter stated i shall receive a court summons soon. Thus i am panicking now. Thank you for the help. Also wanted to ask if it would be okay to call them and try to persuade them to make an out of court settlement? Or must it be written? -

I was wondering whether they have not mentioned it so that they dont let me know their entire prosecution case. I am really quite worried about whats going to happen now but i shall write another letter and see how things proceed. -

I purchased the ticket with cash and unfortunately i have lost the ticket so i have no proof of even having one. I have already tried writing a letter and they have still decided to proceed with prosecution. I have no idea how to address the false details issue. I just panicked when they asked me because i feared that it would have an effect on my career and ironically it now is having an effect. -

First Capital connect and the only offence they mention is 'Failing to hand over a rail ticket for inspection' -
So i was travelling on a train without a ticket because I had forgotten it. When i was questioned, I initially gave a false name and address. Now the train company has taken this to the magistrates court and i face conviction. I am a healthcare professional and so i really cannot afford to have a criminal conviction. What do i do? Will this effect my ability to get a job in the future?

Court summons for fare evasion SWT
Stevefoxy replied to rjslondon's topic in Public transport (Trains, tubes and buses)
I am on the exact same situation at the moment. I am a health care profrofessional and really don't want to be convicted because of the effect it might have on my ability to get a job. I have been summoned to a magistrates court and don't really know what to do now. Have you had any problems with this being on your CRB since then?
