Quentin represents Premier League footballer Christian Benteke on Direct Access basis

When Premier League footballer Christian Benteke found himself in need of specialist legal representation in respect of a number of driving matters he chose to instruct Quentin Hunt on a direct public access basis.

 

Quentin represented Mr Benteke in respect of three separate cases of speeding including an offence of driving at 89mph in a 40mph limit zone. Mr Benteke chose to enter guilty pleas to all matters and was disqualified from driving under the ‘totting’ provisions due to the accumulation of penalty points. Quentin was able to join up all 3 cases to ensure that Mr Benteke was not given 3 separate sentences and was as a result able to limit the disqualification period to that which may otherwise have been imposed.

 

The matter was widely publicised in the national press and a selection of the reporting on the case can be seen below
