This work covers the full response to criminal investigation and charge in England, from arrest and police station attendance and pre‑charge advice through magistrates' courts, Crown Court trials, sentence hearings and appeals. Solicitors advise under PACE, attend and conduct police interviews, apply for bail, prepare and serve disclosure requests under the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act, draft witness statements and skeleton arguments, instruct experts, negotiate with the Crown Prosecution Service and represent clients at trial and sentence. Progress is driven by disclosure, plea choices and custodial timetables.

“Dear Leanne, I can not put into words how truly amazing you have been throughout this whole situation. When Simon was arrested a huge hole was left in our family, we were do upset. You have been more than a solicitor you have been just as invested as we are in getting Simon free. You have supported us in more ways than you will ever know. For the time you worked for Simon you became part of our team our family. You always dealt with us in a caring supportive manner and you gave us hope. Our youngest son just 8 years old was so sad but he always felt happy after my husband and I have spoken to you. That was because not only did you do your job you spent the time to support us all. What you have done matters. I just don't know how we will ever thank you. I would like to keep you in touch with Simons successes so you see him achieve his goals you should always feel your were part of that and you mattered, no one deserves to feel that more than you. You did an amazing job All out thanks and love Stay Safe The Bear Family ”

“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.”
