Criminal defence lawyers advise and represent people under investigation or facing charges, from police station interviews to hearings in the magistrates' and higher courts. They cover motoring offences, fraud, assault, and serious cases. Criminal matters move quickly and the stakes are high, so early advice, ideally before any interview, can make a significant difference to the outcome.
England and Wales is a common law jurisdiction where solicitors and barristers are the main legal professions. Matters are heard in the County Court, the High Court, the Crown Court and magistrates courts, along with specialist tribunals such as the Employment Tribunal and the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum).
Every lawyer listed is identity and credential verified, and the body that regulates them is shown on their individual profile.
