Arrest Rights cover what happens when a person is stopped and held by the police in England. It includes being informed of the reason for arrest, having access to a solicitor, and the right to consult a lawyer privately while in custody. A solicitor helps check the lawfulness of detention, reviews evidence, and can apply for bail or discharge if appropriate. The area also deals with the rules governing timing, interrogation, and the treatment of detainees under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The arrest triggers urgent decisions: whether detention is lawful, what questions may be asked, and how quickly a person should be released or brought before a magistrate. A solicitor provides protection against improper treatment, ensures compliance with time limits, and investigates any breaches of reasonable conduct, safeguarding the client’s position through access to legal advice, representations, and appropriate applications in court.

Tagged solicitor Katie Forrest

I went with Forrest Williams as I liked the detail on their website and my initial conversation was comforting, I was then provided expert advice when i arrived for a police interview. I am not sure what went on behind the scenes but I received No further Action from the Police. i must thank Forrest Williams for all their hard work that went into my case and it was money well spent in my experience.

I was arrested by the police at my house for no reason, they took me to the police station and left me in the cells for hours. As soon as I contacted Johnsons, I was interviewed within 20 minutes and an hour later I was released without charge.
