Hatten Wyatt is one of the few remaining legal practices in Gravesend retaining the skills of Criminal Legal Practitioners. At Hatten Wyatt we are able to assist clients who have been arrested and taken to a police station. Our experience and expertise means that we are able to represent you both at the Police Station and in Court. Our solicitors make sure that your rights are respected; the legal procedures are explained to you as well as discussing what you should be doing next.
Whether or not you have been involved with the Police before, being arrested is a traumatic experience. We can support you and our expert and prompt handling of your matter in the first instance may result in no further action being taken.
We handle all crimes from motoring offences to robbery. Our solicitors treat all clients equally, whatever the nature or seriousness of the alleged crime and we do not make judgments about you or the offence you are charged with. We are used to working at short notice but always encourage clients to talk to us at the earliest opportunity.
It is in your interests that you consider very carefully before proceeding to an interview without legal representation. We have duty solicitors and even if the duty solicitor on the particular occasion is not from Hatten Wyatt, you can still request for us to deal with your matter. Undertaking an interview without legal representation could prejudice your position.
For out of hours emergency assistance in respect of criminal matters please contact us on 07946 147 467.
Hatten Wyatt holds a Legal Aid Franchise in respect of crime. Please contact us to see whether you would be eligible for public funding.
If you have been wrongly arrested or detained then you should contact our civil department in respect of any potential action against the police.
