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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Arrest work in England covers when police detain someone, what rights are explained, and how a solicitor protects a person’s interests from the outset. A solicitor advises at police custody, reviews the case for admissible evidence, and helps arrange bail or advocate for early release. They may also liaise with the Crown Prosecution Service and prepare for any required court appearances following the detention.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A solicitor explains rights, challenges evidence gathered in custody, ensures proper treatment in a registered custody suite, and prepares bail or early court steps to secure the client’s position in the investigation.

Georgina Wright

Tagged solicitor Georgina Wright

I was arrested unfairly. I wasn’t asked any questions by the arresting officer before they made the arrest they just took the word of the accuser. I have never been in trouble with the police in my life. It was a very alien situation and I felt vulnerable and lonely. Georgina was awesome. She felt like the only friend I had in the world at that moment in time. She’s a top level professional and lovely person as well. Forever grateful in my hour of need.

Christopher WilsonDawn McKnight

Tagged solicitors Christopher Wilson and Dawn McKnight

Dealing with Lawtons solicitors at a difficult time for me has been easy, both Gemma at Stevenage Police Station and Dawn at Luton Magistrates Court were brilliant, their level of care was above and beyond expectations. They both took their valuable time to explain what was going on, making me feel supported all of the time, Christopher has been at all times very good and assisted me when I was a bit confused as what to do, lose these talenyer people at your peril, pleasure to deal with the company and I wish you all well

Mark Wardley

Tagged solicitor Mark Wardley

I was met by Mark in a timely manner and he has reviewed all material prior to our engagement. He was clear in his advise and adopted a professional and supportive stance, giving guidance on how the matter would proceed. His confidence in me allowed me to be prepared for my interview and sure the right outcome would be determined. I hope I'm never served papers again but if history repeats itself I would like Mark at my side.

Philip Kouvaritakis

Tagged solicitor Philip Kouvaritakis

I instructed Philip to give guidance and representation on a minor community resolution. We had one face to face meeting whereby he explained the situation fully and advised the best way forward to a quick and satisfactory resolution. A few subsequent phone calls on progress and the matter was resolved. Philip was extremely helpful and professional throughout the process.
