Criminal law

Defence and representation of complainants, from first contact with the police through to appeal.

Criminal law is the firm's main practice. We represent people under investigation or charged with criminal offences, as well as complainants and victims seeking to protect their rights, before the District Courts, the Assize Courts and on appeal.

How we help

  • Attendance and advice during police questioning.
  • Remand applications and applications for release on conditions.

  • Offences of violence, drugs, fraud and financial crime, road traffic and domestic violence.
  • Private criminal prosecutions and representation of complainants.
  • Criminal appeals against conviction or sentence.

When time matters

The first 24 hours after an arrest are often decisive. See the rights of a person under arrest and call us straight away.
