Colebournes are considered by many to be the Fylde Coast's leading criminal lawyers. Unquestionably we have a highly experienced team of dedicated professionals specialised in criminal law. Unlike many high street solicitors we do not deal with a huge range of legal services. WE SPECIALISE IN WHAT WE KNOW BEST. We have over 25 years experience dealing with Criminal Law cases at every possible level. We have defended some of the Country’s most high profile cases, and do so with a passion. Take a search on Google for Trevor Colebourne Solicitor and see some of the most notorious and famous cases that we have handled including The Morecambe Bay Chinese Cockler case, International Mafia Fraud and even the Country’s first cases fighting the Smoking Ban.
Criminal law is a very complex area and changes almost daily. Colebournes are at the forefront of technology and monitor changes in the law on a daily basis.
We were the first practice in Lancashire to introduce "in house Chambers". Trevor Colebourne is qualified as a Higher Courts Advocate which means he has been further trained and is qualified to appear as an Advocate in any court in England and Wales. This level of advocacy was previously only covered by barristers but now at Colebournes, we are qualified to deal with every stage of the criminal legal process from advice in the police station through to representing clients in the Magistrates Court, the Crown Court, the High Court, the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords.
We were the first practice to introduce "the Gold Card Scheme". Carrying this card ensures that the police do not take any rights away from you. You can obtain your free card by telephoning or e mailing our office.
If you have the misfortune to be arrested by the police (or any other agency for that matter) it is imperative that you obtain the best possible legal advice without any delay. Our 24 hour Help Lines are there for that purpose and a qualified solicitor or accredited representative can advise you by telephone the moment you arrive in the police station and can arrange to attend to see you and deal with any police interview .
Do not let the police take this right from you - it is imperative that you have immediate legal advice should you cross paths with the police.
Colebournes are contracted suppliers to the Criminal Defence Service and can provide advice at the police station entirely free of charge and in the Magistrates’ and Crown Court we are approved Legal Aid Suppliers.
