Whether you need representing at a police station, Magistrates Court, Crown Court or any other court, Kirwans' crime team is available to assist you.

The department, headed by Partner Paul Ford , prides itself on being available to assist clients 24 hours a day – 365 days of the year.

The crime team operates a 24-hour emergency callout service, staffed each night by members of the department. The number to call is 07770 864 037 .

In addition to providing advice and assistance to clients with allegations of criminal conduct, we offer a prison law service to support existing clients who are in prison. We also offer private prosecution services and have extensive experience of dealing with Government agency prosecutions and fraud investigation.

Prison Law

Unlike some law firms, we do not abandon our clients if they are taken into custody. Our specialist prison law service supports and advises current clients of their rights when in prison and can assist in settling any matters that arise while serving their sentence. When in prison you have the right to consult a solicitor and receive advice and representation. We offer a comprehensive range of services for clients in custody, including advice and representation on the following matters:

	Independent adjudications
	Parole Board hearings
	License revocation and re-call
	Sentence Planning Boards
	Life sentence prisoner issues
	Judicial reviews

For more information, or to arrange a meeting, please call Paul Ford on 0151 608 9078 or email him at pford@kirwanssolicitors.co.uk.
