Understand Your Situation
Allegations of involvement in organised drug supply lines or multi-handed conspiracies carry significant custodial risks. Our team provides forensic protection, focusing on technical data analysis and modern slavery safeguards.
Charges involving 'County Lines' and the large-scale supply of controlled drugs are among the most aggressively prosecuted offences in England and Wales. These cases are frequently prosecuted as a Conspiracy to Supply under the Criminal Law Act 1977, allowing the prosecution to charge an agreement to commit the crime even if no drugs were found in the defendant's possession. The Sentencing Council Guidelines place heavy emphasis on an individual's 'role' within a conspiracy, with 'Leading Roles' facing custodial ranges often exceeding 10 years for Class A substances.
Understand Your Legal Standing
Expert legal representation is critical from the earliest stages of an investigation. A confidential consultation provides clarity on your rights and the procedural steps ahead.
Plan Your Defence
Modern drug supply investigations rely heavily on digital and telecommunications evidence, specifically the 'attribution' of burner handsets and deal lines through complex data patterns. A robust defence must be equally technical, utilising independent cell site analysts and digital forensic experts to challenge the integrity of police data and claims of 'co-location'. For individuals coerced or exploited into participation, the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (Section 45) provides a vital statutory defence that can lead to the withdrawal of charges. Challenging police 'expert' opinion evidence on the scale and hierarchy of a supply operation is also a key technical component of the defence.
Develop a Strategic Defence
Every case involves unique evidential complexities. Specialist legal advice ensures that your version of events is properly represented and that all forensic opportunities are explored.
Legal Aid Availability
For many criminal matters, from police station interviews to Crown Court trials, public funding (Legal Aid) may be available to cover your legal costs.
Eligibility is determined by the seriousness of the case and, in some instances, a means assessment. Our team will conduct an immediate, confidential assessment of your eligibility to ensure that financial constraints do not stand in the way of a robust defence.
