With a network of contacts in the criminal justice system - including some of London’s top barristers - we always have the best people in court protecting your interests.
Drug Offences
From possession and supply, though to trafficking, there are many grey areas surrounding drug law. If you’ve been charged, insist on legal representation before agreeing to police questioning.
Firearms & Offensive Weapons
Carrying even an imitation firearm is a criminal act, but there are mitigating reasons that a defence case can argue if you are caught with an offensive weapon.
Murder & Manslaughter
Sampson Bailey has a strong track record of representing clients on both sets of these charges. Our team is ready to act on your behalf if a case is brought against you
Police Station Advice
We are available 24/7 if you need representation at the police station. We cover London but are also able to represent our clients nationwide by telephone and video conference.
Professional Discipline Investigations
A successful defence against allegations of breach of conduct requires nuanced legal expertise. Our team has in-depth experience of this area of law, and we are able to act quickly to represent your interests.
Sports Professionals Representation
As well as legal expertise, we provide sympathetic and supportive counsel for sports professionals needing representation. We understand the sensitive and potentially damaging nature such charges bring to an individual’s livelihood.
Violent Offences
With violent offences, context and intent is a key factor in successfully arguing against charges. With a track record in defending clients facing such charges, Sampson Bailey is ready to act on your behalf.
Working With Us - What To Expect
As soon as you are charged, you can contact us - no matter the time of day or night.
We will arrange an initial meeting either in person, or remotely through a video consultation.
This initial meeting will give us the information to ascertain whether a court hearing is likely.
From there, additional meetings and court appearances will depend on the severity of charges, and how complex the case turns out to be.
