We hold a legal aid contract and therefore if you are eligible for legal aid we can assist you. Far more people are entitled to Crown Court legal aid than Magistrates Court legal aid.  We provide advice from the outset as to whether you will receive legal aid. Our work starts at the police station. We advise you and represent you at the Magistrate’s Court. If your case is sent to the Crown Court we will already have met you, sorted funding and started to consider the evidence on your behalf.

Good lawyers are proactive. It is not just about looking at the prosecution evidence but knowing what information to ask for. It is about instructing the right experts and making sure you have an expert barrister. It is about leaving no stone unturned. We will advise you if the evidence is against you and we will advise you of any potential defences.
