What We Can Help With

Our reviews are suitable for a wide range of criminal matters coming before the UK magistrates’ court — not just trials.

Whether you're preparing to represent yourself or seeking additional insight to support a client, we can help you understand how the bench may view your case and what you can do to prepare more effectively.

We commonly review matters such as:

• First appearances and plea hearings
• Bail decisions and bail applications
• Case management and procedural hearings
• Full trials (including summary and either-way offences)
• Sentence hearings following a guilty plea
• Mitigation preparation
• Applications to adjourn
• Driving offences and exceptional hardship cases
• Non-custodial sentencing options
• Potential impact of previous convictions or aggravating factors
• Weaknesses in the prosecution case

In addition to our structured case reviews, we also offer a simple Q&A service — allowing you to ask sitting magistrates anything about your situation, the court process, or what to expect on the day.
