Facing a police investigation can be difficult and alarming, whether you are under arrest or whether the police wish to speak to you as a volunteer. Legal representation at this stage can make all the difference to the outcome of your case. In the police station, what you need is prompt and effective advice on the law and what it means for you.
Our experienced team can advise you on any police investigation. We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week for police station work. We aim to arrive at the police station whatever the hour within 45 minutes, and during working hours this can often be 5 minutes.
We take representation at the police station very seriously, and do not just delegate it to junior staff like many firms. All our partners are duty solicitors, and are available both in office hours and out for police interviews. Successful police station representation is about correct advice, clear information, and sometimes also moral support for the client, and at the same time gathering information from the police about their evidence, and representations about the outcome. It can make a huge difference to have someone experienced and skilled on your side, there with you to assist right from the start.
Costs
We can provide representation at the police station under the legal aid scheme to all clients regardless of means. If you are arrested or attending as a volunteer for interview you do not need to worry about paying for a solicitor: there aren’t even any forms to fill in. Just call, or ask the police to call us.
