SERIOUS CRIME

home > expertise > serious crime

Sonn Macmillan Walker has very substantial experience in defending the full range of serious and complex criminal cases. We have a dedicated team of solicitors who specialise in Crown Court work and we conduct cases across the country.

We are a member of the Legal Services Commission panel authorised to undertake “very high cost cases”. These are cases where the trial is predicted to last longer than 8 weeks.  Whilst many firms claim to possess experience in conducting such cases, few actually have that experience.

Serious cases are given priority by the prosecuting agencies and defendants should therefore engage solicitors who are accustomed to dealing with such cases. 

We have specialised in defending grave and complex crime since the firm's inception and we have solicitors and advocates able to provide the highest quality representation for all matters including the following offences:

  • Terrorism
  • Murder
  • Manslaughter
  • Importation and supply of drugs
  • Kidnap
  • Blackmail
  • Arson
  • False imprisonment
  • Possession and use of firearms
  • Serious sexual assault     
  • Death by careless driving
  • Death by dangerous driving
  • Serious fraud
  • Internet crime
