• There is no more than 100 pages of ‘advanced information’ evidence for your case.

The fixed fee includes the following;

• Taking your instructions regarding mitigation if you intend to plead guilty or instructions in relation to your defense if you intend to plead not guilty.
• Advising as to the Court process
• Advising as to likely sentence

Disbursements
You will be liable for the disbursements for your representative’s travel to the Court. This will be charged at 45p per mile. Parking fees will also be charged if appropriate. These disbursements will be subject to VAT (at 20% or the prevailing rate if different)

We provide a 24-hour service, so if you require advice or are arrested at any time of the day or night, we will be there as soon as possible. Being in police custody can often leave you feeling powerless and lonely, which is why we always make sure our clients in police custody are our top priority.

In the event of being arrested or charged with a crime, you need an experienced, direct, and assertive lawyer who is willing to fight for your rights, both in the police station and at the Court of Appeal. If you are facing charges in court, you will need a solicitor who will treat you as an integral part of its defence team, as well as one who has contacts with the best barristers in the country to represent you.
