Crime/ Criminal Defence

Thank you for everything ! Forever grateful ❤️

The BEST criminal defense lawyers in town folks. They make the impossible possible from dropping baseless charges quickly, challenging any alleged crimes in the most effective way that there is, with grace and an extensive knowledge of the courts and legal system - all whilst making you as the clients feel at ease. With necessary and thorough communication and notifying you of any changes and updates made to your case. I would like to give an honourable mention of my team, Emma turner and Martin Hawkes. I can barely put into words the gratitude I feel towards them as they worked tirelessly towards a hopeful acquittal (not guilty) verdict as I pleaded self defence. I say hopeful because there isn’t certainty of anything especially when going against an allegation as serious as ‘assault against a police officer’. Emma Turner gathered all the necessary evidence and kept me in the loop, kept in contact with the CPS and did everything she could have done to have the 3 year old case reviewed on my behalf. On the day of the trial at the crown court, Martin Hawkes came in ready and advocated for me with exceptional skill and professionalism. Martin knew every detail of my case, kept me fully informed throughout, and fought fearlessly for me in court. His cross-examination was crucial in my case and very sharp, powerful even. I felt genuinely supported during one of the most difficult times of my life. Thanks to their dedication, I achieved the right outcome, and I will always be grateful. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Advice from Fergus Harrington

Fergus has been advising me in a criminal investigation. He has been very professional, was very precise about deliverables and timing required and worked efficiently and effectively to achieve the outcome. He was available late at night and early in the morning when required. Overall an outstanding effort and achieved the outcome we hoped for.

I’m a free man

From section 4 (AM)to GBH section 18, to GBH section 20 and then acquitted because of self defence was the journey I experienced. Thanks to Akhtar from ABV Solicitors who advised me clearly throughout the entire case and assured that he would do his best to assist me on my defence. This made me make the right decisions so I never gave up or took a plea deal, my case was very serious because of the charges against me. The prosecution was very assertive from the start and I thought there was no hope for me , until I went to trial and beat the case on a not guilty verdict in all counts. What a rollercoaster of events well done to ABV Solicitors thank you for getting me through this stressful and difficult journey , I am now a free man Thank you very much Isaac Amoo

Bailed out!

I was represented by Somsul Hoque from ABV Solicitors as i was charged with a criminal case at the crown court. When dealing with my case Somsul was always approachable and provided me with clear and sensible advice. Somsul was tenacious when preparing my case and argued for the prosecution to drop the case. Eventually, the prosecution dropped all charges and my case was discontinued. Somsul demonstrated great legal knowledge and his wealth of experience in order to get the right result. I would use Somsul again and would recommend him highly.

Naomi and I can't thank Roheed Hussain from ABV Solicitors enough! He was excellent and he appeared to have taken the time to study all our evidence in detail and sometimes out of his usual working hours. On the day of the trial, he explained to us the court process and he constantly reassured us in a calm and friendly manner all the way through - resulting in the case against us being dismissed! Thank you Roheed!

This is just to say. A huge thankyou personally to ROHEED HUSSAIN and MARTIN HAWKES and the team. I was charged with 3 offences back in 2023 that could and would have put me in prison. After their tenacity and patience, I finally had my trial 3 years later. Due to good team work and facts coming to light, I received a UNANIMOUS not guilty verdict after a 20 minute deliberation.. I can not thank them ALL enough. I would absolutely Recommend ABV for their diligence and patience. Thankyou all.

I honestly cannot thank Anwar enough for the support he gave me during one of the worst experiences of my life. I was falsely accused and, for the first time ever, taken into custody. It was terrifying and completely overwhelming, especially as I have never been involved in anything criminal before nor did i ever visit the police station in my life time. Anwar came in as my custody solicitor, guided me calmly through the entire process, and helped get me out. His reassurance and professionalism made a horrible situation much easier to handle. After that, I unfortunately instructed a different solicitor and paid a significant amount in fees, but they were completely unhelpful. I had travel restrictions and a ban in place, with pre-booked flights, and for three months I struggled while they kept saying the officers wouldn’t respond. Despite constantly chasing them, I got nowhere and eventually lost hope. I was even told I wouldn’t be able to fly. Just one day before my scheduled travel, I decided to call Anwar again. To my absolute surprise, by that same evening he had resolved the issue and I was cleared to travel. I immediately dropped my previous solicitors and asked Anwar to take over my case. Throughout everything, he has been reliable, supportive, and genuinely dedicated. I understand lawyers are busy and it can sometimes be difficult to get responses, but whenever something was urgent, Anwar was always available to talk, explain things clearly, and take action. I don’t usually write Google reviews, but Anwar truly deserves this recognition. He is an excellent solicitor and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs strong, dependable legal representation.

NOT GUILTY

I was wrongfully accused. All my sacrifices and everything I have ever worked for, felt at a standstill. Throughout the entire process, Sidra (solicitor) and Adam (barrister) formed an exceptional team, clearly explaining every stage and making me feel safe, supported, and guided. I could not have asked for a better outcome or a more professional and experienced legal team. ABV Solicitors deserve my highest recommendation to anyone in need of expert legal help. I am finally a free man and ready to move forward with my life.

Very professional

I was represented by Somsul hoque and was not disappointed at all. He helped me throughout my case giving me insight on everything that was going on and keeping me updated. If someone needed help finding solicitors I would definitely suggest Somsul at ABV solicitors in full confidence. He always made sure to go the extra mile in making sure I was heard explaining exactly what he was aiming to achieve with my case and in the end he was successful in doing so.

To anyone contemplating using this solicitors I can highly recommend Fergus Harrington. Fergus has recently concluded a case for me which ultimatley through his experience and knowledge ended up being dropped. I cannot thank him enough, his attention to detail is second to none! If I were to need a solictior again I would not hesitate to contact Fergus. Fergus is very proffesional and explained each step of the process very clearly alongside keeping me up to date with any changes. Thank you Fergus!

If someone is looking for the best law firm in London I would highly recommend Abv solicitors. This was my first time in my life dealing with this I was depressed and not knowing what to do and I was stressing a lot but the was Iram Iqbal deal with me. The way she guided me that was the best thing that happened to me at that time I cannot thank god for sending her to me at that time. She was very supportive and understanding very kind and respectful. There was a point where I was being hopeless that how I will get out of this because of the shortage of time we had in the case but she did her best to help me and she got me out of that hell. All I can say she is best solicitor in London and the most professional ones I know. It was pleasure working with you miss Iram Iqbal I wish you the best in life

I can’t thank my solicitor Fergus enough for the outstanding support and professionalism throughout the entire process. He truly went above and beyond to help me, always keeping me informed, answering my questions promptly, and making a stressful situation much easier to deal with. His dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care made a huge difference. This was a sensitive case involving kennelling costs that were 10s of thousands of pounds I highly recommend their/his services to anyone looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, reliable, and truly committed to their clients.
