If you have been accused of a crime, no matter how big or small, we ABV Solicitors have a criminal solicitor who can help you, from the earliest stages of questioning at the police station to the outcome of any trial you may have to attend. We have again been cited in 2023 as a leading firm by The Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners. Our criminal solicitor is rated highly because of the vast number of notable cases we have been successful in representing, which can be found detailed on our website. With an experienced and expert legal professional, you stand to get the best outcome for your case, whether you’ve been charged with a minor criminal offence or something more serious, such as modern slavery offences, terrorism, or murder.

How we can help

There can be no doubt that being accused of a crime can be very distressing for you as well as your loved ones. You are at risk of losing your reputation, employment, or worse, freedom. Therefore, you must get the best representation possible to help you gain the fairest outcome for your situation.

At ABV Solicitors, we recommend seeking our support from the earliest possible moment, which includes when you are being taken to the police station for questioning. This could happen at any time of day or night, which is why we have a 24/7 telephone service and solicitors ready to come and advise you at the police station, wherever you may be in the UK. At the police station, our intervention could make the difference between you being charged with a criminal offence or not. We strive to deliver a personalised service, recognising that no two cases are identical.

If you are charged with an offence, our criminal solicitor will then take steps to build a robust defence for you; this will involve interviewing expert witnesses, such as forensics experts, and we have links to some of the best. We will also gather evidence, such as CCTV footage. For minor criminal offences, we will represent you in the Magistrates’ Court. We will see your case through here to the Magistrates’ verdict. However, for more serious crimes such as terrorism and murder, going to the Magistrates’ Court is merely a formality to confirm the charges, your details, as well as your plea. You will then be referred to the Crown Court, where your case will be heard. We work with leading barristers and QCs, supporting them by gathering any information they need during the trial.

We’ve done it many times before, and we will do it again.
