The Police Station
Whether you are asked to attend the police station voluntarily or you are arrested unexpectedly, we can assist. If you required to attend the police station, you need only call us to arrange representation for free. If you are arrested, the police have our contact information and you need only ask for a solicitor from Milne Moser to be contacted on your behalf.
When either children or vulnerable adults attend the police station, they must be represented by an appropriate adult – someone who is able to look after their welfare and ensure they understand their situation. If you have been asked to attend as an Appropriate Adult, you have the right to request a solicitor.
Magistrates, Crown Court and Beyond
Milne Moser continues to offer expert representation throughout Court proceedings, whether the allegation is one of simple shoplifting or as serious as fraud, or murder.
We hold a contract with the Legal Aid Agency and can advise as to your eligibility for Legal Aid in Court proceedings. If Legal Aid is not available, we can offer a realistic fee structure in respect of your case, and in some circumstances, offer to conduct your case for a fixed fee.
If you are required to attend Court, it is crucial that you instruct a Solicitor as soon as possible, in order that they can represent you.
