Your defence begins
with understanding your case.

Police station representation

Being arrested or invited to attend a police interview can be unsettling. We advise you on the law, evidence, procedure, your options and represent you during the interview.

Our criminal defence team provides police station assistance 24 hours, 7 days a week. If you or someone you know has been arrested or invited to attend a police interview, contact us as soon as possible.

Pre-charge advice

The period following a police interview can be an important stage in a criminal investigation. We assess the evidence available, identify relevant witnesses and material, and consider whether representations to the police may be appropriate.

Our advice is tailored to the circumstances of your case. Early, proactive involvement can help identify issues, clarify the position and ensure relevant matters are properly addressed before a charging decision is made.

Magistrates’ and Crown Court proceedings

If you are charged with a criminal offence, we will explain the allegations against you, advise you on the relevant law and court procedure, and help you understand your options. We carefully review the prosecution evidence, prepare your defence and provide representation throughout your court proceedings.

Our work can include advice on bail, preparation for trial, sentencing and the merits of an appeal. At every stage, we provide clear advice, helping you understand what to expect and make informed decisions about your case.

A wide range of allegations

We act for individuals facing a broad spectrum of criminal allegations, from assault, drug-related and motoring offences through to the most serious cases, including homicide and terrorism. Every case requires a considered approach. We examine the circumstances and evidence carefully, provide clear and practical advice, and prepare your defence thoroughly. Whatever the complexity of the matter, you can expect focused representation and personal attention throughout.

Funding your case

We believe that access to top-tier legal representation should not be determined by your financial circumstances.

Whether your defence is funded through Legal Aid or privately, we provide clear advice, careful preparation and dedicated representation throughout your case.

We take the time to understand your circumstances, explain the funding options available and help you understand which arrangements may be appropriate for your case.

Our firm holds a Legal Aid Agency contract for criminal litigation. Where Legal Aid is not available, or where you choose to fund your case privately, we offer clear and transparent fee arrangements tailored to the nature and circumstances of your matter.
