Freeman & Co.

Freeman & Co. Nick Freeman is undoubtedly the most famous solicitor practising in the country today. He heads the Nick is a regular legal commentator for the Sunday Times.

Without doubt Nick Freeman is the most famous solicitor practising in the country today. His reputation as a skilled advocate and tenacious lawyer has been reported far and wide within the press. Owing to his indepth knowledge of motoring law, the press dubbed him as "Mr Loophole" following his continued successes at challenging prosecutions. So much has the name of "Mr Loophole" become a mark of

his success that Nick trademarked the name in 2008. Following his graduation from Chester Law School in 1979, Nick began his legal career as a prosecuting solicitor for the Greater Manchester Police. Owing to his advanced legal knowledge and courtroom style he was soon recruited into private practice by the then highly respected firm of Burton & Co, where he was soon made a partner. In 1999 Nick made the move of starting his own solicitors' firm and at that point Freeman & Co was created. From this early start, Nick has developed Freeman & Co into one of the best known and highly respected solicitors' firm in the country. The press and media have followed Nick's career closely, in part because of the high profile and celebrity clients that he attracts. His client list reads like a "who's who" of famous names, having represented the likes of David Beckham, Sir Alex Ferguson, Andrew Flintoff, Jeremy Clarkson, Tiff Needell, Ronnie O'Sullivan, Jamie Rednapp, Colin Montgomerie and Van Morrison, to name but a few. Although Nick is well known as a skilled motoring lawyer, his background and practice covers a full range of criminal offences, from assault to murder, from theft to serious fraud and from indecent assault to r**e. By utilising his years of experience and technical legal knowledge, Nick applies the same level of scrutiny and tenacity to each and every offence that his clients face; looking for the weaknesses in the prosecution case and getting the best possible result. Despite the media embracing Nick as "Mr Loophole" and them reporting on his celebrity clients, Freeman & Co thrive on representing ordinary people and members of the public with the same tenacious manner that can be read about in the press. Outside of his practice Nick regularly appears both on television and radio as an experienced and respected legal commentator. In recent times his credits have included Tonight With Trevor MacDonald, Close Up North West, Channel 4 News, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio 5 Live to name but a few. He also appears regularly on Sky News, BBC News 24 and Legal Eagles on ITV's This Morning.

20mph limits aren’t about safety, they’re about control.

I see it every day. Roads designed to flow, artificially slowed to a crawl.

What does that create? Frustration. Congestion. Drivers taking risks to compensate.

And let’s be honest, more cameras, more fines, more revenue.

If this was truly about safety, we’d be using dynamic speed limits, adjusted for conditions, traffic, and time of day.

Not blanket rules that ignore reality.

Because safe driving isn’t about arbitrary numbers.
It’s about judgement.

🚗💥 Slow the wrong roads down, and you don’t reduce risk; you move it.

Here’s what frustrates me.

Every time there are allegations around politicians and things like stamp duty, we don’t just get a conversation about facts, we get a conversation about spin, loyalty, and damage control.

But for everyone else? The rules are simple. You get it wrong, you pay. No speeches. No nuance.

I’m not interested in personalities, I’m interested in fairness. And fairness only works if it applies to everyone.

The UK Wouldn’t Hire These People To Run A Corner Shop. So Why Are They Running The Country?

Yesterday was Tax Freedom Day.

Think about that.

For nearly six months, the average person has effectively been working to fund taxes and government spending before they start earning for themselves.

Now here’s the uncomfortable bit.

If a business consistently overspent, borrowed more every year, missed targets, and demanded more money from customers, it wouldn’t get rewarded.

It would get new management.

So why is government any different?

Maybe Britain doesn’t have a taxpayer problem.

Maybe it has a leadership problem.

Tag someone who has run a business and ask them this question: Should more business people be running the country?

The UK’s drink driving limit is one of the most lenient in the world. That’s not a flex, it’s a problem.

Too many accidents. Too many excuses. Too much grey area.

I’m backing a reduction in the legal alcohol limit, because reaction time isn’t a debate, it’s physics.

And while we’re at it… drug driving?

Right now, we’ve got limits that people don’t understand, can’t measure, and absolutely push.

Alcohol. Drugs. Same outcome: impaired judgement.

The law should reflect reality, not convenience.

🚗💥 Drive sharp or don’t drive at all.

MY MOTHER IN LAW SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD.

This week on Mr. Loophole: Passenger Seat, Nick puts Mary to the test… and discovers something even more dangerous than bad driving:

Zero decision making. Zero confidence. Zero awareness.

Safety: 0/10
Highway Code Knowledge: 0/10
Decision Making: 0/10
Confidence: 0/10

Final verdict? A stationary hazard disguised as a driver.

Because sometimes the biggest risk on the road… isn’t speed. It’s hesitation with absolutely no idea what to do next.

🚗💥 The leaderboard doesn’t lie.

Tag someone who drives like this… 👀

When did driving at 24mph become a bigger priority than tackling real crime?

I joined Julia Hartley-Brewer on TalkTVUK Radio to discuss why blanket 20mph limits could turn millions of otherwise law abiding motorists into offenders.

Do these limits improve safety or are they simply an easy way to penalise drivers?

Ask Nick: can I be prosecuted for speeding if I didn’t see a warning sign?

Let me be very clear; yes, you can.

And I know people don’t like hearing that.

But the law doesn’t care what you saw in the moment. It cares what is legally in force.

A speed limit doesn’t exist because you noticed it. It exists because it has been properly set under law.

Now here’s the part people miss:

Warning signs are not required for prosecution.

But speed limit signs must be correctly placed, correctly sized, and clearly visible under strict regulations.

If they’re not compliant, that’s not an excuse, it’s a legal challenge.

So I don’t ask: 'did you see it?'

I ask: 'was it lawfully signed?'

Because that is where cases are actually decided.

Ask Nick.

THE MOST DANGEROUS WORD IN LAW ISN’T 'LOOPHOLE'

‘You’re getting guilty people off.'

I hear it all the time.

But here’s the question nobody asks:

What happens when the police get it wrong?

What happens when evidence isn’t gathered properly?

What happens when procedure isn’t followed?

The rule of law isn’t there to protect the popular.

It’s there to protect everyone.

Including you.

You don’t have to agree with me.

But do you want justice decided by evidence…

Or by public opinion?

I think Keir Starmer’s choice of Antonia Romeo raises a much bigger question than people are willing to admit.

And let me be clear, this isn’t about personalities. It’s about judgement.

Because when senior government appointments are made, they’re not just administrative decisions. They are signals of trust, capability and direction.

And in my view, when you’re appointing people into roles that carry real public responsibility, their track record matters. Delivery matters. Outcomes matter.

I see too often in public life that decisions are defended politically first, and examined properly second.

But when public confidence is already under pressure, every appointment either strengthens trust in the system or weakens it.

I’m not saying people will agree with me. They won’t.
But I do think the real question here isn’t whether the appointment is popular or unpopular.

It’s whether it demonstrates the kind of judgement people expect from those at the very top.

And that, for me, is the conversation worth having.

Henry Nowak should still be alive.

His murder has shocked the country and sparked a fierce debate about policing, public safety and whether some uncomfortable conversations are being avoided.

In this video, I explain why I believe the law surrounding ceremonial knives needs urgent review, why public confidence in policing matters, and why every victim deserves the same attention, scrutiny and pursuit of justice.

You may agree. You may disagree.

But these are questions we cannot ignore.

What do you think?
