Law firms ranked by client reviews
Trial preparation covers the steps a solicitor takes before a criminal trial to ensure the case is ready to proceed in the Crown Court or magistrates’ court. A solicitor collects and checks evidence, interviews witnesses, drafts statements, requests and reviews disclosure, and prepares bundles of documents. They liaise with the Crown Prosecution Service, police, and expert witnesses, advise on pre-trial applications, and coordinate the defence case so it can be presented clearly at trial.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The act of preparing for trial often hinges on timely disclosure, careful handling of new or changing evidence, and protecting the client’s position against potential adverse findings or procedural missteps. A solicitor’s role includes ensuring compliance with the Criminal Procedure Rules, safeguarding legal rights, and managing the sequence of steps that determine whether a case proceeds to an actual trial or is resolved earlier by plea or other disposition.
