Defences covers the work of protecting someone facing criminal charges, from initial arrest to trial and appeal. A solicitor in this area advises on evidence, rights and possible defences, negotiates with prosecutors, and represents the client in court. They handle disclosure requests, bail applications, alibi and mental health considerations, and advise on plea options and sentencing consequences if convicted.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

Defence work is heavily regulated and involves safeguarding client rights through proper disclosure, accurate record-keeping and adherence to a regulated professional framework. A solicitor can instruct barristers, apply for bail, challenge evidence, and prepare the case for trial with clear, legally grounded arguments.

Fiona Almazedi

Tagged solicitor Fiona Almazedi

During my experience, my solicitor Fiona Almazedi was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning she was kind, caring, and genuinely supportive, which made a very stressful situation much easier for me. She always took the time to explain things and made me feel listened to and reassured. In court she was extremely capable and confident, and she did an incredible job for me. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor and I’m very grateful for everything she did.
