This work covers defending someone charged with murder, the most serious criminal offence in England and Wales. A solicitor practising murder defence represents the defendant at police stations, in custody and in court from first appearance to trial, including bail applications, trial preparation, and instructions to experts. They gather and review forensic evidence, interview witnesses, and liaise with the Crown Prosecution Service and the court to advance a coherent defence and protect the client’s rights at every stage. The approach is shaped by the gravity of the charge and the potential consequences.
The consequences of murder charges are severe, and a solicitor’s role includes safeguarding professional standards and accountability, managing client confidentiality, and ensuring proper handling of evidence and procedural steps. They rely on conduct of litigation rules, court procedures, and professional indemnity frameworks to support the client through investigations, disclosures, and advocacy.

Tagged solicitor Michael Horne
I instructed Michael to help with a police interview for a driving collision, something I had never experienced before. I was scared, anxious and upset, but Michael talked me through everything and supported me through the whole process. His professionalism and expertise throughout the whole process was made manageable by his guidance. I would highly recommend Kidwells and Michael

Tagged solicitor Katie Forrest
My daughter who was a late diagnosis of ASD was wonderfully supported by this firm throughout a nightmare experience. She doesn’t do well with men so we were supported by Katie Forest Williams who video called ( during pandemic) and spent the time needed to create a safe space to help both me and my daughter . The team were understanding, professional and kind through the whole process and we had a successful outcome to our huge releif. We can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend them to others who might need there specialist help.
