Criminal litigation

We represent clients accused of criminal offences from police station through trial, bail applications, appeals and mitigation, protecting constitutional rights at every stage.

What we do

  • Police bond and bail
  • Criminal defence and trial
  • Appeals and revision
  • Mitigation and plea bargaining

Police and bail

We secure police bond and bail, advise suspects during interrogation, and challenge unlawful detention.

Trial defence

We prepare defences, cross-examine witnesses and present mitigation in the Magistrates’ courts, High Court and Court of Appeal.

Appeals

We file appeals against conviction and sentence, and applications for revision where the record supports one.

Questions clients ask

Can I get bail before being charged?

Yes. Police can grant bond, and a court can grant bail. We can apply for either depending on the stage of the matter.

Do you handle appeals?

Yes, from the Magistrates’ courts through the High Court and the Court of Appeal.
