Practice area guide
What does a criminal lawyer do?
Criminal law lawyers advise and represent people and companies who are investigated, arrested or charged with an offence, from traffic and public-order matters to fraud, drug and violent offences. Work runs from police interviews and bail through trial, sentencing and appeals; some lawyers also act for victims where the local system allows it.
How do I choose a criminal lawyer?
- If you are being questioned or arrested, ask for a lawyer immediately; many countries guarantee access to one before or during interview.
- Ask how often the lawyer appears in the criminal courts that will hear your case and who will actually attend hearings.
- Clarify fees per stage, and whether you may qualify for publicly funded legal aid.
