What you do and say to the police during an investigation can impact hugely on any future prosecution that could commence. The police investigation stage is arguably the most important stage within criminal proceedings, it is the stage that can have a huge impact on the outcome of your case, your future and your liberty.
Being arrested or contacted by police can be frightening and can send people into an overwhelming sense of panic and anxiety. Ultimately these feelings will increase your vulnerability when at the police station, leading you to make rash decisions ,and not being able to process the events as you would if it was not happening to you. This is one of many reasons having a specialist lawyer on your side from the moment police contact is made is important to protect your position, legal rights and to ensure advantage is not taken of you.
Our experienced team is dedicated to ensuring your rights and legal position are protected from the outset. Our tailored approach to all cases enables us to take the steps necessary to put you and your case in the best possible position.

If you are arrested you will be given the option of the duty solicitor at the station, this is likely to be a solicitor or qualified police station representative who is on duty to handle all interviews at police stations within a certain area at one given time.
Their representation is paid for by the government under the Legal Aid Scheme meaning it will not cost you any money.
However, by using the duty representative you could be one of many within that station, or area. We feel that the level of service received when opting for the duty solicitor is miles apart from instructing a lawyer on a private basis. Therefore, if you have the option to seek private advice and representation when in custody for a sexual offence, or offence arising from domestic violence, particularly when instructing our lawyers, you will be given as much time, advice and guidance as is required by you.
