Getting ready
Here are a few tips to help you prepare for your first meeting with our lawyers, who have a dedicated practice in criminal law.
1
Since memory is a faculty that forgets, we advise you to put the sequence of events down in writing as soon as possible following your arrest in order to prepare your defense adequately.
2 Once your memories have been put down in writing, it is important to make a note in your agenda of the dates appearing on the documents issued at the police station. Note that if you fail to appear in court on the day of your appearance and no lawyer is there to represent you, an arrest warrant will be issued against you.
3 Gather all the documents that you have received relating to your charge into one file. Before proceeding with any correspondence, it is recommended to make an appointment with our team. Bring these documents with you to this meeting.
4 Contact us by telephone or email to make an appointment quickly.
