Criminal Law Solicitors

If you have been accused of any criminal offence, from the minor misdemeanour to the really serious acts, it is imperative that you contact a solicitor at the very earliest opportunity. Your legal representative will ensure that all of your rights are upheld and that the procedures followed are correct and within jurisdiction. They will support you at the police station, following bail or in the run up and actual event of a court case.

Being arrested is a daunting and frightening experience. Your solicitor will also help to give you peace of mind and support in a very troubling time for you. They will always act in your best interests and make sure your treatment is fair and appropriate.

It is important to remember that legal advice at the police station is free, regardless of your income or savings.  Legal aid is also available in many cases to help where you are charged with an offence and the case will go to court.

From advising you at the police station to representing you at court, our criminal law specialists can manage allegations including but not restricted to:

  • murder, manslaughter and causing death by dangerous driving;
  • assault, including grievous bodily harm and actual bodily harm; 
  • sexual offences, including rape, child exploitation and the downloading of indecent images;
  • domestic violence, mental or physical abuse including gaslighting and coercive or controlling behaviour;
  • harassment and stalking;
  • drug possession, drug dealing or drug importation;
  • possession of an offensive weapon or bladed article;
  • theft, ranging from shoplifting to stealing from your employer;
  • fraud and other crimes of dishonesty
  • motoring offences, including causing injury by dangerous driving, speeding, driving without insurance, improper mobile phone usage and failing to stop after an accident.

They will also represent you at trial, sentencing hearings and if you wish to appeal against a conviction or sentence.
