Michael Carroll & Co has been providing Private Specialist Criminal Defence Services in North London since 1996. The Firm takes pride in its personal level of service to you, the client, offering the full range of Criminal Defence services from providing initial advice prior to attendance at the police station, representation at the Police Station, representation throughout the Criminal Justice System, including at Magistrates Court, Crown Court and Appeal Courts. We work with the Probation Service, Youth Offending Service and Drugs Agencies, and advice agencies at court.
We are proud that the majority of our clients come to us from personal recommendation. We have a loyal and committed team of lawyers, case-workers and support staff, who choose to go that extra mile. Our clients know they can phone us at any time to ask for advice, which sometimes has nothing to do with criminal law!
We are happy to signpost our clients to other professionals when necessary. We specialise in a privately funded work and some of our Criminal Defence work is publicly funded. The Firm is based in North London, we regularly cover cases in Essex, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Sussex, Surrey, etc., and we are currently engaged in cases ranging from Bristol, to Leeds to Lewes in Sussex.
