Criminal Law

Criminal law is a fundamental aspect of our legal system. It encompasses a wide range of offences, from minor offences to serious indictable offences.

A conviction of a criminal offence can lead to severe consequences, including fines, probation, imprisonment, and a tarnished reputation. Facing a charge for a criminal offence can be a confronting, and stressful experience. It can have lifelong implications for you.

At Barker Evans, we are experienced in criminal law defence and are here to advocate for your best interests, and guide you through these tough times.
