What do criminal lawyers do?
The criminal defence lawyers at our firm in Croydon defend clients at every stage of their criminal case. Criminal defence lawyers complete virtually all of the tasks that must be handled in criminal law cases, e.g., contacting the courts and other lawyers to resolve matters, examining evidence, and presenting arguments to courts demonstrating their clients’ innocence in criminal matters. Criminal defence lawyers may also negotiate with governing authorities to lessen their clients’ repercussions.
How much does a good criminal defence lawyer cost?
At Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers, for Magistrates’ Court matters, we quote one fee for services rendered whenever it is possible. For matters that are in County and Supreme Courts, we do our best to explain our fees at the onset of representation. Because lawyers’ fees vary based on the type of offence, length of time spent in court, and a number of other factors, the lawyers at Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers go above and beyond to provide clients with cost and fee information.

What to do if you can't afford a criminal lawyer?

What lawyer can represent me in a criminal case?
If you are charged with a criminal offence, you should hire a lawyer in Croydon who is specialised in handling criminal matters that are similar to yours, i.e., a criminal defence lawyer.

When to hire an experienced criminal defence lawyer?
It is best to hire a criminal lawyer as soon as you have been charged in a criminal matter. If you are already past that initial point in your criminal case, you can still hire a lawyer to assist you, and you will likely be very glad that you did. The right lawyer can reduce the stress you have associated with your criminal case by stepping in and making things right.
