This work covers assisting individuals who want to challenge a criminal conviction or sentence by applying to the Criminal Cases Review Commission for a possible referral to a higher court. A solicitor gathers new evidence, reviews trial and appeal material, drafts submissions, and coordinates with the Commission, the Court of Appeal and other parties. The aim is to identify a real ground for review and to progress the case through the Commission's referral and any subsequent appeal process.

“Dear Leanne, I can not put into words how truly amazing you have been throughout this whole situation. When Simon was arrested a huge hole was left in our family, we were do upset. You have been more than a solicitor you have been just as invested as we are in getting Simon free. You have supported us in more ways than you will ever know. For the time you worked for Simon you became part of our team our family. You always dealt with us in a caring supportive manner and you gave us hope. Our youngest son just 8 years old was so sad but he always felt happy after my husband and I have spoken to you. That was because not only did you do your job you spent the time to support us all. What you have done matters. I just don't know how we will ever thank you. I would like to keep you in touch with Simons successes so you see him achieve his goals you should always feel your were part of that and you mattered, no one deserves to feel that more than you. You did an amazing job All out thanks and love Stay Safe The Bear Family ”

“Never had to have dealings with a solicitor before for any reason, and certainly no previous knowledge of the court process. However, what I didn't know was explained properly when I asked.”

“I WISH ALL SOLICITORS were so professional. I have waited seventeen years to progress my appeal, and thankfully at long, long last I found these solicitors. I telephoned the office this morning. The receptionist was absolutely lovely, and re directed my call immediately to the right department for me to receive an update. The lady who I should perhaps not mention by name, (without her permission) couldn’t have been more helpful. What ever happens with my appeal case, I feel very confident that if any positive outcome can be achieved in light of substantial new facts (recently emerging) there is no solicitor that I have found, who can match this company. Thank You for your helpfulness and compassion.”

“I’m truly grateful to Legalise-IT Solicitors for their outstanding support and professionalism. They recently assisted my brother as a duty solicitor, and thanks to their dedication and expertise, he was released promptly and treated fairly throughout the process. From the very beginning, Mr. Shakeel was calm, reassuring, and genuinely cared about our situation. He explained every step clearly, ensured my brother’s rights were fully protected, and kept us informed at all times. Their professionalism, compassion, and commitment made a very stressful experience much easier to handle. I couldn’t have asked for better representation. I highly recommend Legalise-IT Solicitors to anyone in need of reliable, knowledgeable, and truly supportive legal help.”
