Experienced Criminal Law Practice
If you or a member of your family is charged with a crime, we encourage you to contact an experienced Bury criminal defence solicitor as soon as possible. Members of our staff are available 24/7 to provide legal advice and representation for individuals charged with a range of offences.
At Crompton Halliwell, we understand the serious life-changing consequences you might face upon conviction. Our team works quickly and efficiently to investigate the factors leading to your arrest in order to craft an effective and unique defence strategy. With our extensive experience, we have had the opportunity to successfully guide clients through a number of criminal charges. Contact our office immediately for a consultation.
Motoring
Arrests related to motoring offences such as drink driving, dangerous driving or careless driving can carry serious consequences ranging from fines to custodial sentences and the eventual loss of a driving licence. We understand that the loss of driving privileges can be devastating to personal as well as professional lives, and we diligently work to protect our clients' driving licences. The more serious the motoring offence, the greater the amount of points that can be added to a driving record.
Attendance at Court
If you or one of your children are summoned or charged by the police, you will be required to attend court and should contact our team of criminal law solicitors as soon as possible. We will be able to give expert advice and represent you in court if necessary.
Our defence solicitors can give you advice on various issues including bail, how to plead and the sentence that you are likely to receive on conclusion of the case. Sentences available to the court range from discharges and fines, to community penalties such as probation or community service, to a full custodial sentence.
At Crompton Halliwell, we have two full time criminal solicitors who are on call 24/7 for attendance at police stations or local magistrates courts. Those solicitors have also attained the higher rights of audience accreditation. This honour allows us to appear in Crown Court and truly offer a full criminal defence service to our clients from the police station through to the magistrates courts and on to the Crown Court.
