Most people have the sense that professional representation will be expensive and avoid getting the defence they need to protect their reputations and their livelihood. In reality, many solicitors provide affordable legal services with some legal matters even covered on a no-win-no-fee basis, so you can get the services you need during a legal crisis.
Read more for some further information on some reasons you might require legal representation.
Road Traffic Offences
Whether you are at fault for a road traffic offence or you are completely innocent, it’s a sensible idea to use the services of a road traffic lawyer. Road traffic offences can be complicated and expensive, even with minor incidents. A lawyer can ensure you are protected and defended.
Road traffic offences carry stiff penalties in the UK. Some of them have hefty fines, while others have jail time or public service. In the event of a serious accident, you will need a professional lawyer on your side for professional representation in court. Make sure you land the best lawyer.
Drug Related Offences
For many people, drugs are viewed as a part of life; they are required for one reason or another and are not thought of as a criminal offence. However, certain drugs and behaviours are considered criminal offences and carry penalties that range from fines to time in a prison cell.
If you have been caught in possession of a banned substance or accused of creating or distributing prescription drugs, you might require a litigation lawyer for your defence. A professional lawyer may be required for your court action and to protect your reputation.
Assault and Theft
Assault is unacceptable in society and carries a range of hefty penalties; the trouble is that assault offences can be hard to quantify, so if you have been accused of assault, you need a lawyer for professional representation. They can help you get the justice and clarity you need.
Theft offences range from stealing in shops and on the street to corporate embezzlement and large-scale fraud. If you have been accused of theft, it can ruin your reputation and destroy trust. Consult a professional lawyer and defend yourself in court against accusations of assault and theft.
Sexual Offenses
Sexual offences are the worst thing you can be accused of, and they carry extremely high penalties in the courts. Not only do you risk a high penalty if you are found guilty of a crime, but your reputation will also be in tatters and very difficult to rebuild. Seek legal advice immediately.
When you are accused of a sexual offence, you will probably find yourself in a state of outrage and panic. This is not a sensible state of mind to begin your defence. Additionally, the legislation around these crimes is complex and requires a legal professional to untangle, so don’t delay.
Breaching the Peace
Most people are aware there is a breach of the peace law in force, but few people understand what breach of the peace entails. Breach of the peace charges can be brought for unreasonably loud voices, to public order offences like prostitution and drug use. Seek a professional lawyer.
