Frequently asked questions
I've been accused but not charged — should I get a solicitor?
Yes, immediately. What happens at the investigation and police interview stage is critical. Early representation can shape the entire case, even before any charge.
Will my case be reported publicly?
Complainants in sexual offence cases have lifelong anonymity. We advise on reporting restrictions and handle every case with discretion.
What are the consequences of a conviction?
They can include custody, notification requirements on the sex offenders register and restrictions on work. This is why expert representation from the start is so important.
