Common Questions
Criminal law questions Newmarket clients often ask.
What should Newmarket clients check before the first appearance?
Check the court date, appearance instructions, release terms, disclosure status, and any conditions affecting daily life.
Can I speak to police after being charged?
Get legal advice first. A further statement can affect the case, even if you want to explain yourself.
What if work needs proof of my court date?
Speak with a lawyer before making disclosures so employment needs and legal strategy are considered together.
