OK, it's a fair cop....well actually, maybe it wasn't frown

Having had the luxury of a clean licence for many years, I find myself off to court for a little excursion over the limit. Nothing catastrophic like 100+, but just a wee bit more than a fixed penalty. I'm pretty miffed by the circumstances, plus there are some mitigating circumstances of sorts.

The last time I had a speeding ticket was maybe 15 years ago and I got a local solicitor to put forward my case, and although I got a fine/points, I think it was a better outcome than either saying nothing or trying to 'defend' myself. I'm keen to present the circumstances of this little escapade in the best possible light too, and to that end I'm guessing a solicotor who know how courts work is probably a better bet than me.

Anyone know of any decent solicitors who will present some mitigating evidence/circumstances [in Edinburgh] and not cost an arm and a leg?
