A considered approach to your defence.

Start with the person, then examine the case.

People rarely contact a criminal solicitor at a convenient moment. An interview invitation, an arrest or a court notice can arrive in the middle of ordinary family and working life. Our role begins by helping you understand what needs to happen next.

AB Mackenzie Solicitors is a criminal defence firm advising on matters ranging from police investigations to serious and complex proceedings. We serve Lewisham from our office at Alliance House in Bromley.

Preparation that gives advice a foundation

Sound advice depends on more than the name of an offence. It requires attention to the available material, your instructions, the procedural position and the practical consequences of each option.

We discuss the work required, who will be involved and how the case may be funded. If information is incomplete or a decision needs further investigation, that should be made clear.

Communication that helps you make decisions

Bring your questions, including the ones that feel basic. Understanding an appointment, a document or a deadline is part of being able to participate in your defence.

Let us know if you need communication or accessibility adjustments when arranging an appointment.
