Top 10 of 2,123 law firms for Acquittal, Crime/ Criminal Defence

Law firms ranked by client reviews

In England, an acquittal occurs when the prosecution fails to prove the defendant’s guilt beyond reasonable doubt, ending the case in the defendant’s favour. A solicitor practicing in this area reviews the evidence, advises on appeals only if a conviction arises, and handles post-trial matters such as the recording of the verdict, bail implications, and any potential subsequent legal steps if new evidence appears.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The solicitor explains the verdict, protects the client’s rights, and clarifies available avenues if fresh evidence emerges. They ensure the not guilty verdict is properly recorded, advise on any limited post-trial steps, and liaise with the court to confirm the conclusion of criminal proceedings.

Hannah Costley

Tagged solicitor Hannah Costley

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work Hannah from Slater Hills did for my family. My brother was wrongfully accused and spent five months in prison before his trial. It was an unimaginably difficult and emotional time for all of us, but Hannah’s professionalism, compassion, and determination truly made all the difference. From the beginning, Hannah was patient and understanding, taking the time to listen to our concerns and explain every step of the process. She never rushed us and made sure we felt supported and informed throughout. Her dedication to uncovering the truth and fighting for justice was evident in every interaction we had. Hannah’s legal expertise and attention to detail ultimately led to my brother being found not guilty, and our family finally feels like we can breathe again. This outcome wouldn’t have been possible without her tireless efforts and the exceptional support of the Slater Hills team. If you’re looking for a criminal lawyer who truly cares and will fight for you every step of the way, I cannot recommend Hannah enough. Thank you, Hannah, for helping to restore my brother’s life and bringing peace back to our family. We will forever be grateful.

Loretta Woollams

Tagged solicitor Loretta Woollams

Where do I start. I was charged and remanded for the alleged offence of kidnap. My life was put on hold and I was placed in forest bank HMP. I was innocent. Wrongly accused and truly distraught. Being placed in an environment where I was scared & angry. Loretta helped me remain positive throughout my experience to the point. She stood her ground and when needed kept me in line. Which I truly respect. I am grateful for all she did for my family and myself and ultimately appreciate all the hard work she & my barrister put in. Forcing the prosecution to drop the case. As there was no evidence. So all I can truly say is. THANK YOU

Kind understanding and professional support from Megan Wright helped me to defend myself and clear all the accusations against me which were thrown out with no further action, against unlikely odds. Great support would highly recommend. Thanks

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am incredibly grateful to my solicitor, Jen, for her outstanding representation. Thanks to her hard work, dedication, and expertise, my case was completely dismissed.From start to finish, she was excellent in every possible way. She was exceptionally proactive, always staying ten steps ahead and ensuring no detail was overlooked. Her work ethic is unmatched, and it was clear throughout my case that she was working tirelessly on my behalf.I cannot thank her enough for her support during this time. If you need a brilliant, hard-working, and highly effective solicitor, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Megan Delaney

Tagged solicitor Megan Delaney

I contacted Richard Nelson when I became aware of a serious allegation against myself, which if proven, would have seriously affected my future. As a young person planning on entering professional life, I realised the need for well trained and highly competent representation. To this end, I found myself contacting Richard Nelson, where I was put into contact with associate solicitor Mr Richard Etherington. From the start of our relationship, Mr Etherington was forthright, extremely competent and kind. Without the help of him, trainee solicitor Ms Megan Delaney, and barrister Ms Wendy Hewitt, I have no doubt the outcome of my case would have been negative. As it stands, their constant hard work resulted in a highly positive result, only possible through their dedication and depth of experience. Each of them demonstrated extremely valuable knowledge which was crucial, both in reassuring me and also helping to win my case. To anyone facing a similar situation, I cannot recommend the services of Richard Nelson LLP enough, and I guarantee they will do everything within their power to help you and also provide much-needed reassurance during a trying time.
