Law firms ranked by client reviews
Policing covers how criminal law is enforced, investigated and contested in England. It includes police powers such as stop and search, detention, arrest, and the management of evidence and disclosure through the Crown Prosecution Service. A solicitor practising policing represents clients at police stations, during interviews, at bail hearings, and in court, and negotiates with prosecutors, challenges unlawful actions, and advises on compliance with police procedures and safeguarding rights.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
Solictors in policing handle the procedures and documents that arise from police powers, including stop and search records, detention timelines, interview notes, warrants, and disclosure packs. They prepare and present applications for bail, warrants, and reviews, raise pre-trial issues, and represent clients at magistrates’ and crown court hearings, ensuring compliance with statutory safeguards and rights, while coordinating with the Crown Prosecution Service and, when needed, the court.
