Understand Your Situation
Cases involving state secrets require a solicitor with specific clearance and discretion. We handle these sensitive matters.
Defending National Security Cases
Investigations under the Official Secrets Act or involving Espionage are unique. They often involve 'closed material procedures' where evidence is not fully disclosed to the public.
We have the experience to navigate this secretive environment. We defend civil servants, military personnel, and contractors accused of leaking information or mishandling classified documents. We challenge the classification of the material—was it actually damaging to national security? Or was it in the public interest? We provide the robust legal shield needed when the state itself is the prosecutor.

Plan Your Defence
Security Vetting Appeals
We also assist with security clearance vetting appeals (STRAP, DV).
If your clearance is revoked, your career is over. We represent you at appeal tribunals, arguing that your conduct does not pose a risk. We help you retain your clearance and your livelihood.

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.
