Top 10 of 2,123 law firms for Murder and Manslaughter, Crime/ Criminal Defence

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers the most serious criminal offences involving death, including murder and manslaughter, investigated by the police and prosecuted by the Crown Prosecution Service. A solicitor in England will advise on the case, help secure bail where possible, review the evidence and police interview material, instruct experts, and represent the client at plea hearings and the trial in the Crown Court, challenging witness statements and guiding the defence strategy throughout. Proceedings are governed by criminal procedure in England and Wales, with the court process culminating in a Crown Court trial or a guilty plea with sentencing.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The stakes include a possible life sentence or long-term imprisonment, strict timelines for disclosure and disclosure-related decisions, and the risk of collateral consequences such as loss of liberty. A solicitor protects the client by examining evidential thresholds, managing disclosure and unused material, raising admissibility issues, and conducting robust advocacy at trial and sanction hearings, all within professional regulatory standards.

Cheryl Zanatti

Tagged solicitor Cheryl Zanatti

I WISH ALL SOLICITORS were so professional. I have waited seventeen years to progress my appeal, and thankfully at long, long last I found these solicitors. I telephoned the office this morning. The receptionist was absolutely lovely, and re directed my call immediately to the right department for me to receive an update. The lady who I should perhaps not mention by name, (without her permission) couldn’t have been more helpful. What ever happens with my appeal case, I feel very confident that if any positive outcome can be achieved in light of substantial new facts (recently emerging) there is no solicitor that I have found, who can match this company. Thank You for your helpfulness and compassion.
