We advise immediately on arrest or charge — attending the Royal Court and instructing a Jersey advocate to manage the local procedure.
We scrutinise the prosecution evidence, gather defence evidence, and identify every available argument for acquittal or reduction of charge.
We present the defence case with vigour — cross-examining prosecution witnesses, calling defence evidence, and delivering compelling closing submissions.
Jersey has its own jurisdiction, procedure, and law. The Royal Court is presided over by the Bailiff and Jurats rather than a High Court judge and jury in the English manner.
Yes — we instruct Jersey advocates for local hearings and co-ordinate the full defence from our London base.
