Criminal Defence

Experience, excellence and straight-talking are just three of the reasons why Bobbetts Mackan is recognised as a leading law practice for criminal defence and defence of serious fraud.

We have extensive expertise in relation to all enquiries undertaken by the police and other investigative and regulatory bodies -  including Customs and Excise, the DTI and Serious Fraud Office.  Our team includes highly experienced solicitor advocates and has the ability to provide representation at all levels; from police station representation to cases heard in the Magistrates Courts, through to Inquests, Courts Martial and the High Court.

Recognised in the Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession as a 'regional front runner’, the Defence Team at Bobbetts Mackan comprises a range of individuals who between them have the breadth and understanding to work with young people or first time offenders and the professionalism to be a leader in cases of ‘white collar crime’ and serious fraud.

The team has recently been enlarged and strengthened by the incorporation of the Criminal Defence team of Culpan Williams LLP upon the merger of the two firms.

We provide professional advice and defence to individuals from all walks of life and all parts of the UK against the full range of criminal allegations, whether brought by charge or summons, including burglaries, assaults, excess alcohol and drug-related crime.  We deal with all motoring and vehicle related offences including situations where a driving licence is at risk  - such as speeding.  We have considerable expertise in sexual offence cases, in particular allegations of child abuse involving carers, teachers and other professionals.

We have acknowledged expertise in defending allegations of internet related pornography matters supported by strong forensic computing skills. 

We have substantial experience in cases involving violence and murder.

Contact us round the clock for emergency advice or support, and guidance at interviews involving Police or other regulatory investigators.
