This area covers what happens before a person is charged with a crime, including early police interview advice and decisions about bail and next steps. A solicitor in England who practises pre-charge work helps a client understand the rights during custody, attends police stations, advises on potential cautions, and engages with the Crown Prosecution Service on possible charging options. They also review early disclosure and prepare for future court or tribunal proceedings if charges are brought.
