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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Court appearances in England cover when a person is brought before the magistrates’ court or the Crown Court after arrest or charge. A solicitor reviews the case, advises on pleas, prepares and files documents, and represents the client at hearings, including bail applications, adjournments, and the trial itself. They gather evidence, instruct experts, and negotiate with prosecutors on behalf of the client to shape the case and respond to evidence or new decisions from the court.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The outcome can set the course of an individual’s freedom, charging decisions, or potential custodial sentence. The solicitor’s role includes ensuring compliance with time limits, protecting rights of audience, and securing appropriate court actions if the client is to be released on bail or if the matter proceeds to trial.

Laura Horne-SmithMichael Horne

Tagged solicitors Laura Horne-Smith and Michael Horne

Kidwells represented me in the defence of a highly sensitive criminal case that had the potential to cause significant and long-term hardship for both me and my family. From the outset, Michael was clear, open, and honest about what to expect. His diligent and thorough approach provided reassurance during an extremely challenging time. I was also supported by Laura, whose care and attention throughout the process were exceptional. Her support extended beyond email communication to in-person meetings and attendance at court. Having her there made a considerable difference, particularly as I was navigating a completely unfamiliar and daunting environment. Kidwells also instructed a barrister, who demonstrated outstanding professionalism and expertise. The combined experience and dedication of the entire team ultimately resulted in an acquittal, bringing an end to 18 months of intense pressure for me and my family. I cannot thank them enough for the support and representation they provided throughout.
