4 Simple Steps if you’re accused of a crime…
Avoid any contact with police without speaking to a solicitor. This includes family liaison officers, who can and will gather evidence in the case, often without being upfront about it.
Get a top firm of specialist solicitors to represent you or the family member you're helping. The duty solicitor or local high street solicitor may not be a specialist in this area.
Ensure that you can rely on support from a friend or family member. They can attend meetings with you and support you through what is often a very stressful process.
