Along with Murder, Terrorism is widely considered the most serious charge a person can face and could be punishable by a life sentence. Many offences are covered under the Terrorism Act, many of which one would not expect. We understand the inevitable extreme pressure and stresses a person will go through if they, or a loved one, has been accused of such offences.
The Terrorism Act gives the police and relevant authorities significantly more power to arrest, detain and question an individual when they are suspected of any offence falling under that act. It is therefore absolutely essential that you know your rights in relation to this unique area of criminal law.
Our team have represented people accused of an array of Terrorism Act offences and we know the importance of quality representation from the outset. The police have extended powers to detain under the Terrorism Act, meaning that you could be kept in a police station, without charge for up to 14 days, and you may be interviewed many times. We understand that during this stressful time, it is important to have an experienced solicitor advising and assisting you.
We understand that every person is unique and so we strive to provide a tailored service, instructing the right advocate or barrister for the individual case.
