Contested Summary Trial

If your case proceeds to a contested summary trial we normally provide the following service within our quote:

• A meeting with your lawyer to provide instructions on what happened.

• We’ll consider initial disclosure, and any other evidence and provide advice.

• Arranging to take any witness statements if necessary (this may have an additional cost if significant numbers of witnesses are involved).

• We’ll explain the court procedure to you so you know what to expect on the day of your hearing, and the sentencing options available to the court.

• We’ll conduct any further preparatory work, obtain further instructions from you if necessary and answer any follow up queries you have.

• We can’t provide a timescale of when your hearing will take place, as this depends on when it’s listed by the court.

• We’ll attend court on the day and meet with you before going into court. We anticipate being at court for half a day. We’ll also discuss the outcome with you.

• If advice is required on appeal, this will carry an additional cost.
