In England, this work covers how the Crown must prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt and how a solicitor defends someone facing criminal charges by scrutinising the prosecution’s evidence, coordinating disclosure requests, and advising on appropriate pleas and defences. A solicitor reviews witness statements, expert reports, and the crossexamination plan, drafts robust defence submissions, and represents the client at magistrates’ court or the Crown Court. The aim is to expose weaknesses in the Crown’s case and secure the best possible outcome.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The crucial moment is when the Crown’s evidence meets or fails the standard of proof; if it falls short, the client is likely to be acquitted. A solicitor identifies flaws, negotiates with prosecutors, and may advise on bail, case management, and possible juror considerations. They provide regulated professional oversight, with client accounts and conduct of proceedings governed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

Tagged solicitor Elliot Hammer

I was harassed by a malicious troll attempting, at great length and persisting for several years, to have me prosecuted for some perfectly lawful tweets. Elliot was a rock, completely on top of the brief and very supportive even after the troll also started harassing him. Would highly recommend.
