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.

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 was stopped for drink driving and provided a road side specimen for the police. The reading recorded at the roadside showed I was more than two times over the limit. I was then taken to the police station where I was charged with failing to provide a sample. Contacting JHR Solicitors was the best decision I could of made, John gave me clear advice of the service he could provide and the possible outcome for my case. John was professional and provided a first class service, which was easy to understand with his great legal knowledge. Thanks to John's hard work and proactiveness I was found not guilty and my case was acquitted. I would highly recommend JHR solicitors and I would defiantly use again.

Waqqas Ashraf

Tagged solicitor Waqqas Ashraf

I hired Wasqas from WA Legal to work on my criminal case and I cannot recommend him enough. From our very first consultation, Wasqas was transparent, highly responsive and took the time to explain every step of a complex legal process in plain English. What stood out was his dedication and calm demeanour during a very stressful time for me. He was quick to answer my questions and kept me fully informed of any updates. If you need a skilled and trustworthy lawyer, who genuinely cares about their clients, then look no further. I would highly recommend this firm.
