What types of cases do criminal lawyers handle?
- Domestic violence: Allegations of abuse, threats, or coercive control within a household or intimate relationship.
- Drug offences: Possession, trafficking, cultivation, or manufacturing of controlled substances.
- Driving and motoring offences: Speeding, drink driving, failure to provide a specimen, and dangerous driving.
- Sexual offences: Ranging from harassment and assault to more serious charges requiring a sensitive, robust defence.
- Fraud and identity theft: Financial crimes involving deception, forgery, Ponzi schemes, or online scams.
- Money laundering: Handling or processing criminal proceeds to disguise their illegal origin.
- Elder abuse: Physical, emotional, or financial mistreatment of older adults.
- Assault and battery: Charges involving the threat or application of unlawful force, including aggravated cases.
- Cybercrime: Offences such as hacking, data theft, and other illegal activities conducted via computers or the internet.
- Weapons offences: Illegal possession of firearms, knives, or other prohibited items.
How can a solicitor help with my criminal case, and how much does it cost?
A criminal defence solicitor can:
- Offer expert guidance: Explaining potential defences, likely penalties, and the court process.
- Represent you at every stage: Attending police interviews, bail hearings, and magistrates’ or Crown Court trials.
- Negotiate with prosecutors: Working to reduce charges, secure plea deals, or arrange alternative sentencing.
Costs depend on the seriousness of the offence, your solicitor’s experience, and whether the matter is resolved quickly or goes to trial. Hourly rates typically range from £100 to £300. In some cases, you might qualify for legal aid—especially if you can’t afford private representation and the charges are serious. An initial consultation (often free) will clarify your options, fees, and potential defences.
