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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This covers the defence of people accused of criminal offences in England, from police stations to the Crown Court. A solicitor in this area advises on charges, attends police interviews, helps with bail, drafts and negotiates legal points, reviews evidence, and represents the client in court when needed. The work is shaped by the seriousness of the offence, the stage of proceedings, and whether the client pleads or contests charges.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The act of being charged with an offence is time-sensitive and potentially life-altering, especially for serious or violent crime. A solicitor protects rights at every stage—ensuring proper conduct of interviews, applying for bail, challenging evidence, and, where necessary, representing the client in hearings and trials. The defence plan hinges on timely decisions, adherence to procedural deadlines, and the ability to secure remedies if rights are breached.

Gareth Needs and his team were very helpful and clear in all the advise given. They were as much concerned about my personal welfare as much as the criminal case I was accused of. Hopefully I wont need his help again but would recommend him to anyone else who found themselves in the same situation I was in.

John Ruane

Tagged solicitor John Ruane

I contacted JHR after failing a roadside drug test. John called me personally within half an hour of me putting a contact request in on the website. We discussed the case and I was apprehensive with regards to paying the costs involved with fighting this at trial to someobody I had never met in person. And also on a case where the evidence against me is black and white that I am guilty of the offences charged upon myself by CPS. Fast forward time to now 16 months on from my arrest date and I am sat here now in my vehicle with my license still valid and clean, having walked away from court with an acquittal and also a refund of some costs on there way to me. There are other services available who offer a what john offers but I am confident in sharing that money spent with JHR is money well spent. You will be given access to one of the best Barristers in the business. In my case this was John Dye. Upon reviewing his resume I walked into court confident that I would be walking back out with my license. You will be updated and kept in the loop at all stages of your trial and be offered the best opportunity of a win on your court date.

Mrs Anna, as my official defender in front of the Crown Court in London, helped me to avoid the severe penalty of at least 4 years in prison, which is given for in a similar cases in which I got involved. Thanks to Mrs. Anna I am free. I am glad to recommend Mrs. Anna Matelska as an attorney-at law to anyone who needs a good lawyer in an English court.

Waqqas Ashraf

Tagged solicitor Waqqas Ashraf

I’m really thankful to Waqqas Ashraf and his team. I was still contacted with him on different-different matters. Always he brings out best to best solution. My personal legal story very complicated and I was being through a lot. Only reason. Needed help/service multiple times. Even though I was so attached with Waqqas and felt like a good friend. In past I was so stressed and depressed and anxious. I use to message him call him freely. I had a time when I loosed hope of living. Waqqas Litterly bring me back to life and genuinely helped me a lot as per law. Just because off his skills I faced minimum penalties. As I mentioned before lots of my offenses happened circumstances. I’m not encouraging anyone for offenses here. Just trying to say, if something happens not loose hope on life. Contact this legal farm they are professional and best.

Mohammed Ullah

Tagged solicitor Mohammed Ullah

The whole process was handled incredibly well, quickly and smoothly. Mohammed gathered all the info needed, and from then on required little input on my side. He was diligent and organized, responsive but also patient. I would definitely highly recommend working with him
