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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A hung jury, or a judge’s declaration of no verdict, arises when a jury cannot reach a unanimous or majority decision in a criminal trial in England and Wales. A solicitor in this area explains the result and the potential next steps, including the possibility of a retrial or, in limited circumstances, termination of proceedings. They advise the client on procedural options, engage with the Crown Prosecution Service, and prepare for any subsequent proceedings in the Crown Court.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The outcome can mean a retrial, a decision to discontinue, or a fresh trial timetable. A solicitor offers guidance on procedural steps, protects client rights, and coordinates with the Crown Prosecution Service and court hearings to manage the path forward.

My husband and I cannot recommend or thank Mr Jandoo and his legal colleague Miss Lamballe enough. They guided us through what was an extremely difficult and stressful legal issue, with confidence and care and secured the outcome we had hoped for. Many many thanks, Mr and Mrs Lamb

Simon Saul Natas

Tagged solicitor Simon Saul Natas

After an incredibly long and difficult 32 months, I was fully acquitted by a unanimous jury verdict. Throughout the entire process, Simon Natas showed outstanding professionalism, dedication, and support. From day one, they handled the case with integrity, care, and attention to detail, always ensuring we felt informed and supported during one of the most stressful periods of our lives. Their leadership, alongside the exceptional barristers they instructed, gave us complete confidence that our case was being fought properly and thoroughly. To receive a unanimous not guilty verdict from all 12 jurors after such a short deliberation speaks volumes, and I will always be grateful for everything they did to help us achieve justice. I cannot recommend Simon Natas highly enough. Thank you again for your hard work, kindness, and unwavering support.

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
