This work covers representing clients in Crown Court proceedings for serious offences, including trial advocacy, bail hearings, sentencing hearings, and related applications. A solicitor handles instructions from the client, reviews police and CPS files, negotiates with the prosecution, prepares and leads evidence, cross-examines witnesses, and handles post-charge matters such as appeals or sentence reviews. It also involves engaging with juries, expert witnesses, and court staff to secure the best possible outcome in a high-stakes environment.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A decision in the Crown Court can result in a substantial custodial sentence, long-term consequences for a client’s liberty, and lasting impact on family and employment. The solicitor’s role includes managing urgent bail considerations, ensuring fair trial standards, coordinating with expert witnesses, and pursuing suitable post-trial options while complying with professional and court-imposed deadlines.

Olivia BriarStefan Simms

Tagged solicitors Olivia Briar and Stefan Simms

My experience overall with BRGP has been amazing from starting enquiry to case closed. Both Olivia and Ellis gave timely responses to all emails and were understanding. My assigned solicitor Stefan Simms was incredibly knowledgeable and very reassuring from my first meeting with him right through to the finished court case. Stefan took onboard everything and explored every option to enable effective mitigation including previous case law for my particular case. Stefan made sure that all options available to me were explained and understood clearly so that when the time came he could represent my case efficiently and effectively to secure the best possible outcome - which he did. Stefan made the entire physical process of seeing a solicitor for the first time and being in court with one very comforting, pleasurable and reassuring even when it comes to mental health. 11/10

Daniel Woodman

Tagged solicitor Daniel Woodman

Had well over 15 trials and never lost one. (Lost two but won the appeals in crown court). He is the reason I have a clean licence. He is the reason I’ve never been to jail on many occasions. His name is known is any court in Bristol, bath and surrounding areas. His name is also known out for court for a solicitor that really cares about winning. Not just getting paid. If you value your freedom, driving license and criminal record then find out about Daniel Woodman. Also very knowledgeable in any other matter/aspect of life. I regularly ask him for advice in many matters. A* 10/10 Best about

Madeleine Corr

Tagged solicitor Madeleine Corr

I found Madeleine through the Centre for Women’s Justice website and I’m so grateful that I did. My case was a serious offence and could have had a huge impact on both my daughter and my career. I needed a solicitor who understood domestic abuse and coercive control, and Madeleine’s knowledge and experience immediately stood out. From the beginning, she was supportive, reassuring, and always willing to help, even before my legal aid was approved. I was not charged by the CPS until around 13 months after my arrest, but throughout that time Madeleine still took action on my behalf. She contacted the police about any concerns I had, successfully requested changes to some of my bail conditions. Even while my case was still an active investigation, she successfully arranged for some of my property to be returned to me. Once I was charged, Madeleine helped me with my legal aid application and regularly met with me to prepare my defence. She took the time to listen to me and I felt supported throughout the whole process. The CPS discontinued proceedings against me just before my second plea hearing at Crown Court. I cannot explain the relief I feel, and I’m now able to move forward and rebuild my life with my daughter. I truly believe Madeleine’s expertise and dedication made all the difference to the outcome of my case, and I will always be thankful for her support. I would highly recommend Shaw Graham Kersh LLP to anyone needing a knowledgeable and compassionate defence solicitor.
