Simon Burn Solicitors Criminal Defence Experts
Being arrested or charged with a criminal offence is one of the most stressful experiences imaginable especially if you have no previous experience of the criminal justice system. 

Simon Burn Solicitors act for many clients who have been falsely accused of crimes which have the potential to ruin their reputation, cost them their job, their financial security and their liberty.

If you are facing criminal allegations or investigation, it is vital that you contact a solicitor who is a real specialist and who will be there whenever you need them to discuss your case. Unlike many Legal Aid law firms, we guarantee that you will have a dedicated experienced solicitor who will be with you and your family as you navigate through the criminal justice system. 

Instructing a solicitor in a serious criminal case is a very important decision due to the catastrophic consequences if things go wrong. At Simon Burn Solicitors we can assure that your case will be handled and overseen by a dedicated solicitor recognised as a leading individual in the Legal 500 and who has at least 20 years post-qualification experience. We will not allow you to be advised by inexperienced or unqualified individuals or paralegals. We guarantee that if you appear at Court the lawyer representing you will not be acting as the duty solicitor or looking after lots of other cases but will be focused on you and your case. 

We offer a level of service which is far superior to that offered by Legal Aid law firms. We do not offer free advice or representation under the Legal Aid scheme. Unfortunately, the Legal Aid scheme works in such a way that work often has to be done down to a price and not up to a standard. We are not prepared to compromise on the quality of representation. What we are prepared to do is to provide the highest level of expertise, service and to dedicate ourselves to defending you.
