Top 10 of 849 law firms for Criminal Court of Appeal, Appeals Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

In England, the Criminal Court of Appeal hears appeals against conviction or sentence in serious criminal cases, via the Criminal Division of the Court of Appeal. A solicitor commonly drafts grounds of appeal, prepares the appeal bundle, applies for leave to appeal, and represents the client in written submissions and, where required, at the hearing. The work centers on identifying errors of law or misdirections, misapplication of sentencing guidelines, or new evidence that might affect the outcome, and on coordinating with counsel for the hearing.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

An appeal hinges on precise legal grounds, the admissibility and impact of new or fresh evidence, and the correct application of sentencing law. The solicitor handles ground of appeal preparation, bundle production, exchange of submissions with the Crown Prosecution Service, and, if allowed, advocacy support within the Court of Appeal. Compliance with strict time limits and procedure, including leave to appeal and potential remittal to a higher court, shapes strategy and pace.

Angela West

Tagged solicitor Angela West

I cannot speak highly enough of Angela West at JCP Solicitors. Angela represented me through the appeal of a dismissal from my role as a school teacher — an incredibly stressful and isolating experience. From the very beginning, Angela listened carefully to my case, offered clear and reassuring initial advice, and drafted a thorough and compelling appeal letter. She then recommended involving Counsel at an early stage and sourced an excellent Barrister who strengthened the appeal and identified grounds for an employment tribunal based on unfair dismissal and whistleblowing. Angela continued to work tirelessly, preparing for the appeal hearing and drafting the particulars of claim with exceptional attention to detail. Thanks to Angela’s hard work, expertise, and meticulous planning, my appeal was successful — something almost unheard of within the public sector. As a result, we were able to withdraw from the tribunal, and Angela supported my smooth and fair return to work. I received full back pay and the assurance that my position and reputation were protected. I am profoundly grateful to Angela for her compassion, commitment, and unwavering dedication during one of the most difficult times of my life. She not only ensured that the truth was heard, but she safeguarded my career from potentially devastating consequences. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone. Her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care make her an outstanding solicitor, and I will always be thankful for her relentless support and encouragement.
