Criminal Solicitors with Ashcotts Solicitors

Defending Murder Cases

Murder is well regarded as the most serious of criminal offences and if you are charged with Murder or Attempted Murder you will need an expert criminal defence team for Leeds on your case from day 1.

Working with the brightest and best criminal solicitors in the Country you can be assured that your Murder case is being dealt with properly and that no stone in your defence is left unturned.

From the moment of your first Leeds police interview we can be there with you to help and advise. Being investigated and interviewed for Murder will have already generated a lot of evidence and we will be able to view it and take time with you to give proper and full advice on how best to proceed with your interview. We fully understand that you will be nervous and maybe not be able to take all the information in straight away. Your Leeds police interview will be the first time that you are able to put your version of events across and as the interview is admissible as evidence in court, you really need an experienced criminal solicitor helping you all the way.

In the event that you are charged with Murder in Leeds we will be preparing your case and start challenging the evidence with the prosecution. We will advise you on your choice of barrister and how best to present your case. If expert evidence is required we have access to a wide network who will examine and report upon any relevant evidence that is required.

We will keep in contact with you as your case progresses and arrange conferences with your solicitor and barrister as the evidence is served.

We are extremely proud of our reputation in defending Murder cases in Leeds and all over the Country. We have an excellent success rate and are well known for our hard work and fighting our clients’ corner until the end of the case.

Contacting us is really easy. You can call us on the following numbers:

Manchester – 0161 234 0020
London – 0203 053 8625
24 hours emergency line – 07956 555797

Criminal Defence Work

As criminal solicitors we defend clients who are facing a number of different offences from Murder to Assault, from Benefit Fraud to Serious Fraud, from Indecent Assault to Rape.

You will always find us courteous, professional and non judgemental. We pride ourselves on our meticulous case preparation and our reputation for fighting a client's corner and never backing down. We know that when you are facing a criminal charge and sat in the dock you need an experienced criminal solicitor on your side.

Types Of Cases We Deal With

Murder

The prosecution must prove that the defendant set out to cause serious harm to the victim, and that their actions directly led to the death of the individual. It is not necessary to show that the intention was to kill, but to cause serious harm. The prosecution will attempt to prove that this was the case, they will often attempt to argue against any partial defences, and they may try and argue that the offence was serious enough for the court to remove the possibility of early release.

Rape

Rape is the most serious of all sexual offences, and is considered to be one of the most serious crimes. As such, it carries some of the most severe penalties. Prosecution for this type of crime will usually hinge on the question of whether consent was provided, and whether the accused could reasonably assume that consent existed. With so much riding on the verdict, it is critical that you have a qualified legal team that is experienced in dealing with highly sensitive and difficult sexual offence cases like rape.

Fraud

The type of fraud that you are accused of will typically determine who will prosecute or investigate the case against you. Likely agencies and authorities include the HMRC, FSA, and the Fraud Prosecution Service. All will attempt to provide that you deliberately and illegally deceived one or more people in order to try and make a financial or other form of personal gain.

Regulatory Matters And Business Crime

This is the generic term given to specialisms of work not necessarily Criminal but with a degree of similarity to Criminal cases, indeed they are often referred to as Quasi-Crime. Between Mr Safdar Ashraf and William Southcott of Ashcott Solicitors the firm has over 40 years combined experience of such cases.

Drugs Offences

There are many drug offences that a person may be investigated, tried, and prosecuted for. While some, such as the possession of a class C drug, have relatively lenient sentences, this can quickly change if investigators and the prosecution believe that you are part of a production or distribution ring. The sentence that you receive will be dependent on many factors, including the class of the drug in question, the amount, and your level of involvement, but considerable prison sentences are possible for some of the more serious charges.
