Immediate action: why swift legal help is essential
The moment you are accused of a crime, every decision you make can affect the outcome of your case. From the initial police interview to court appearances, swift action is critical. Many people make the mistake of speaking to the police without legal advice, which can inadvertently harm their defence.
As soon as you become aware of the charges or if you’ve been arrested, contacting a criminal solicitor should be your first priority. Early intervention allows us to guide you through every step of the process, helping you avoid common pitfalls and ensuring that your rights are fully protected. The sooner we are involved, the better positioned we are to build a robust defence strategy on your behalf.
Our criminal law expertise
Criminal law is vast and complex, covering everything from minor offences to serious crimes that carry life-changing penalties. At our Manchester office, we offer expert legal advice and representation for a wide range of criminal matters, including:
- Assault and violent crimes: Whether you’ve been charged with common assault, battery, or more serious offences such as grievous bodily harm (GBH), we have the expertise to defend your case effectively.
- Drug offences: If you’re facing charges related to the possession, supply of drugs, we can help you understand your options and build a strong defence.
- Fraud and financial crime: We regularly represent clients facing complex financial crime cases, including fraud and money laundering. These cases require detailed knowledge of both criminal law and financial regulations, and we have the experience to manage them.
- Theft and burglary: Being accused of theft, burglary, or handling stolen goods can have serious consequences, including imprisonment. We work to minimise the impact of these charges on your life.
- Sexual offences: These are some of the most sensitive and complex cases to defend, and they require a specialised approach. Whether you are facing charges of sexual assault or historical sexual abuse, we provide non-judgmental, expert support throughout the process.
- Road traffic offences: From drink driving to dangerous driving or speeding, we have experience defending a wide range of motoring offences, aiming to keep you on the road and minimise penalties.
Bespoke defence strategies
No two criminal cases are the same, and we believe that a one-size-fits-all approach does not work in criminal defence. Our criminal solicitors in Manchester take the time to fully understand the details of your case, listening carefully to your side of the story and meticulously reviewing all evidence. We then develop a defence strategy specifically tailored to your circumstances, giving you the best chance of achieving a favourable outcome.
We pride ourselves on our strategic thinking and tenacity when it comes to defending our clients. Whether we’re negotiating with the prosecution to get charges reduced or building a case for trial, our goal is always to protect your rights, minimise damage to your life, and secure the best possible result.
Court representation: confidence in every hearing
With our experienced criminal solicitors by your side, you can approach your hearing, with confidence. We provide skilled representation at all stages of the process, from Magistrates’ Court hearings to Crown Court trials. Our solicitors are highly experienced advocates, and if necessary, we work with some of the best barristers in the country to ensure you have the strongest possible representation in court.
We will guide you through every step, ensuring you understand what is happening at all times and making sure you are prepared for each appearance. Our focus is not only on providing expert legal representation but also on giving you the confidence to navigate the legal process without fear or confusion.
Protecting your rights from the start
Many people underestimate the importance of legal representation during a police interview. Anything you say during questioning can be used against you later in court, which is why it’s essential to have a criminal solicitor present from the start. Even (perhaps necessary) if you are innocent, it is vital that you have a legal expert advising you throughout the interview.
Our solicitors will ensure that the police treat you fairly, protect your rights, and prevent you from making any statements that could damage your defence later. If you’ve been asked to attend a police station or have been arrested, contact us immediately for urgent legal advice.
