Between us, there are very few cases our team hasn’t covered.

You can rely on us to work towards the best outcome for you.

Money matters

One of our Plymouth clients' main concerns is usually whether they can afford a criminal defence solicitor. While we do work with fee-paying clients, we also provide means-tested legal aid to those on a low income, free of charge. And our standards are just as high in either case.

If you need to apply for legal aid, get in touch and we'll guide you efficiently through the process.

How can we help?

Our services cover a variety of criminal prosecutions including theft, dangerous driving, drug-related cases, speeding, benefit fraud, murder and many, many more. If you have (or someone you know has) been arrested, give us a call right now on 01752 250 850. We'll get in touch with the police station directly and can be there to help at a moment's notice. With early advice and thorough preparation, we lead you towards the best case conclusion and protect your rights throughout the process.

If you are (or someone you know is) arrested outside of our office hours, ask for us at the police station and the police can contact us, 24 hours a day.

So if you're in a situation where expert advice could make all the difference, get in touch with us today.
