Being charged with a criminal offence can be a daunting prospect. With outcomes that could significantly impact your livelihood and freedom, having professional legal representation is not just helpful, it’s essential.

We provide a complete service, assisting and preparing all aspects of the case on your behalf.

Professional representation through the life of your case

Navigating the legal system without expert guidance can be a perilous task. Even seemingly minor offences can lead to severe penalties, and that's why it's important that you're prepared. If you have been summoned to appear before the local Magistrates Court, the Court will expect you to be in a position to proceed with the case at the first hearing.

​

Following a detailed case analysis, we'll represent you from the first appearance to the day of sentencing, ensuring you feeling supported every step of the way. Legal jargon can be confusing. We speak plainly, ensuring you understand your position, your options, and the process ahead.

Reassurance from a team that understands

Whatever your circumstances, we will make sure that you are properly represented and understand your rights. We can discuss the case with you as well as how this will be funded. Once appointed, we will aim to obtain sight of the case papers from the Crown Prosecution Service in advance. Nevertheless, please be aware that it is not uncommon for us to only see those papers on the day of the first appearance at Court.

 

Rest assured that we are accustomed to dealing with late disclosure of the case and will be able to give you all the expert assistance and advice you need.
