Legal Representation
All members of the HM Armed Forces, regardless of rank or income, are entitled to a solicitor free of charge in an interview conducted by the Armed Forces (Navy, Army & Airforce) police or to apply for legal aid if the Armed Forces Prosecuting Authority decide to prosecute at an Armed Forces Court martial in the UK or abroad.
Legal Aid Funding
If you are charged with an Armed Forces criminal offence in either the Navy, Army or Airforce, you should apply for legal aid funding for your Armed Forces criminal law case to the the Armed Forces Criminal Legal Aid Authority (AFCLAA). In this instance you have the opportunity to choose us as a leading expert in Armed Forces law. If it is a civilian criminal matter then we can advise whether you are eligible for legal aid for representation at Magistrates or Crown Court.
Experience in Armed Forces Matters
Whether you are being interviewed by Armed Forces police or face Armed Forces disciplinary action by your Commanding Officer (Navy, Army & Airforce) or you are appearing at proceedings before the Summary Appeal Court, Civilian Court (Magistrates or Crown Court) or Armed Forces Court Martial (either in the UK or anywhere in the world) our experienced team includes David Howell one of the leading Armed Forces law experts with over 40 years of expertise of operational and regular / reserve service and he has an impressive reputation for providing outstanding legal representation and we will work closely together with you to obtain the best possible outcome.
