M 20 yr old student son and his friend were attacked in a pub on Sunday night and called the police becuase the friend was concussed. the police arrived 30 minutes later and advised them to go home. The friend was dazed and shocked and asked my son to move his car from a yellow line to a spot 100 metres away. My son stupidly agreed to do so and nicked a parked car in the process. the police who had attended them previously saw the incident and breathalised my son who was over the limit (44) I think he said. He has been bailed to return on 20th July for his blood test results etc. My son only has a provisional licence but his friend who is 23 yrs old does a full licence and insurance.
I am worried sick and wondered if you could answer a couple of questions. Is my son, a student with no income, entitled to legal aid and should we get a solicitor on board now? My son lives in London but the incident happened in Manchester. should we get a solicitor in London or Manchester? Finally what is the likely outcome at court going to be in your experience? We know he'll be banned but what else may happen? Thank you so much for reading this
