Criminal Law
‘Everyone has the right to a fair trial’ – as guaranteed in the Human Rights Act 1998 and Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
Criminal law is a complex area. Those who are legally represented usually fare better in proceedings than those who represent themselves. We pride ourselves on careful and thorough preparation of cases as well as an active defence of our clients' interests. Any allegation of criminal misconduct is serious for the person against whom it is directed and we aim to deal with all clients sympathetically and promptly as well as obtaining the best result possible.
Our reputation in this area is built on working hard for our clients and ensuring that no stone is left unturned in challenging a prosecution case and building a solid defence.
We deal with criminal cases at all levels including at the:
- > Police Station
- > Magistrates Court
- > Crown Court
- > Court of Appeal
