We are a young, friendly and approachable firm based between Bournemouth and Christchurch, established since 1989. We are proud to be the closest office to the Combined Court Centre in Bournemouth, and we are contracted with the Legal Aid Agency in Crime work, making us one of the few firms in Bournemouth able to carry out publicly funded work for clients who are eligible.
Our Services
As a specialist criminal law firm, we act for clients who are being prosecuted and need representation in either the Crown or Magistrates Court. Our expert lawyers have experience in all areas of criminal law, including violent offences, sexual offences, drug offences, organised crime, white collar crime, benefit fraud, and motoring offences.
We understand that attending court or a police station can be a daunting experience, which is why we strive to provide a friendly, approachable, and professional service. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that our clients understand the issues relating to their case and are kept fully informed throughout the process.
Expert Legal Advice
Our team of criminal law experts is available around the clock, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We offer specialist legal advice and representation in both the Magistrates Court and the Crown Court, and we instruct Barristers from Chambers in Bournemouth, Winchester, and London to ensure that our clients receive the best representation possible.
Publicly Funded Work
We hold a contract with the Legal Aid Agency to provide specialist advice and representation in respect of criminal allegations. This means that we can represent clients free of charge in some cases, ensuring that those who need our help can access our services.
Fixed Fee Service
For motoring offences such as speeding and drink driving, we offer a fixed fee service, ensuring that clients know their legal costs up front. This provides transparency and peace of mind for those who need our services.
Instruct Us for Agency Work
We have two Solicitor Advocates at our office, enabling us to act as Agents for other firms of Solicitors in the Magistrates Court and attending Police Stations. We are committed to providing high-quality representation and expert advice to our clients, and we look forward to being of assistance to you.
