Our Expertise
Serious Crime
Brooklyn Law based in Harrow, London are regularly instructed on multi handed serious murder cases and specialise in these matters across the UK.
Serious Crime.
When a defendant is potentially facing a lengthy prison sentence or even a life sentence, the stakes are high. We recognise that clients need to trust their solicitors and counsel. We generally work on a referral basis. Unlike some firms who pick up clients from duty schemes and can do so with serious offences for example murder or large-scale drug offences, it means that it is likely that someone whom we have dealt with on a serious case has referred a client to us, because they trust us and know the level of service that we provide.
Whatever the problem, we can help.

The Importance of Trust
We pride ourselves on being at court with you. If you have a trial for such serious offences, we will be at court with you. Too frequently nowadays with other firms, clients are not seeing their solicitors once a trial starts; it is left for the barristers to deal with. The trust and relationship that has been built up in the preparation of the case is then left with a barrister with whom you have had less contact. If you have a trial for a serious offence, we pride ourselves on being at court with you to assist counsel and yourself in the presentation of your case.
