Criminal Defence
If you have been arrested or the police want to interview you as a potential suspect it is essential that you are represented by a competent and experienced Solicitor.
Advice at the Police Station
We provide a 24 hour service, all year round, to all clients requiring representation at the police station. This is funded by the Legal Services Commission and therefore the service is provided to you free of charge. If you are arrested by the Police in connection with an investigation into a possible criminal offense, you have an automatic right to free and independent legal advice. We at Dorians are able to provide comprehensive representation at a Police Station, 24 hours a day.

If you have been charged with a criminal offence and are being prosecuted in the Magistrates or Crown Court having immediate access to highly skilled and professional advisers is vital.
