    General criminal work covers defence and immediate representation for individuals facing criminal charges across the criminal courts. A solicitor practising in this area handles case work from initial police station advice and bail applications to advising at trial in the Magistrates’ Court and, for more serious matters, in the Crown Court. They prepare cases, instruct experts, gather and file evidence, and negotiate or respond to pleas and mitigating factors, always protecting the client’s position in relation to possible custodial outcomes, fines, and ancillary orders.

    “ Patricia has been an exceptional solicitor throughout my partner’s legal proceedings. Her expertise and dedication were evident from our very first meeting. She possesses a remarkable ability to simplify complex legal jargon into understandable terms, which greatly eased my concerns. Her attention to detail is second to none, ensuring that no stone was left unturned. Patricia’s strategic thinking and proactive approach were instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome in his case. Her professionalism and empathy not only provided legal support but also emotional reassurance during stressful times. I am immensely grateful for Patricia’s hard work and would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of legal assistance. Her commitment to her clients and passion for the law are truly commendable. The rest of the team we already met are absolutely fantastic so far ! Thank you all ”
