“I wish to thank you very much for your informative free advice, you will be pleased to hear that the upon presenting my case to the Court they recommended that the case be withdrawn. Initially the Court was seeking a plea, guilty or not guilty, but thanks to your advice I insisted that I was not entering a plea and rather looking to have the case re-opened and withdrawn. After considering all the evidence the CPS decided to agree and withdrew the case moments before I was due to speak with the Judge.”

Its a reliable indication of how good you are as a defence lawyer when the Police Federation ask you for advice !

"Thank you for all your help. After our conversation I wrote out a plan, for the officer, for court. He printed it off and used it when addressing the bench. This included the legal points, his position and that of CPS.  In short it worked and he was found not guilty."
