Criminal Defense

Leading advice and support throughout your legal matter.

Our team provide the highest quality legal support and court representation for the most serious of allegations and offences, including a range of private and business matters.

If you have been accused of committing an offence, no matter how severe, please get in touch with our lawyers at the earliest opportunity to discuss your case.

Legal aid

We do not offer our services through legal aid, as we believe we can provide better results and better service when we have the freedom to advise and defend you properly.

Generally, we find choosing a private option instead of legal aid can be more cost-effective when considering legal aid contributions or recovering defence costs if convicted.

  • Our team is on hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That means we’re there whenever you need us.
  • We can represent individuals, families, private businesses, and public organisations with everything from minor offences to the most severe crimes.

  • Our Head of Crime, Rachel Fletcher, is certified as a “Recommended Lawyer” by the Legal 500.

What can we do for you?

Property law is complex and changes regularly, so it’s important to have a specialist solicitor paying attention to the details.

Our property solicitors can help with:

  • Property disputes and litigation
  • Property finance and lending
  • Property leases and contracts
  • Property development
  • Strategic advice

 

Whether you’re buying or selling a home or purchasing a new property for your business, the legal elements of the transaction need careful consideration. We’re here to ensure the process is as smooth as possible so that you can get on with everything else.

 

Naturally, the broad scope of our property department means we work with various clients – from individuals and families looking for a new home to contractors, surveyors and businesses interested in building new properties.
