Police Station Matters
Everyone is entitled to free and independent  legal advice if they are going to be interviewed under caution, whether that be on a voluntary basis or whilst placed under arrest. This is under the legal aid scheme. Unfortunately, Seatons do not offer legal aid anymore therefore you would need to instruct us on a private basis, our fees start from £350 plus VAT. Alternatively, you can request the Duty Solicitor (for free) and then instruct us on a private basis if you are subsequently charged with a crime.
Our dedicated Crime Team can ensure you have representation at the Police Station, Magistrates Court, Crown Court or Appeal Court depending on your requirements.
We can help you if:
1. You are arrested by the police and taken to a Police Station
2. If the police ask you to attend at the Police Station for interview or questioning or what’s known as a voluntary interview;
3. Â The Police attend at your home address or somewhere else to conduct an interview/question you

What We Do
At the Police Station, we will obtain disclosure from the Police, so some information about why you have been arrested/ are being questioned and then we will discuss matters with you in private, advising you of how to conduct your interview. We will ensure the Police are complying with the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984, which governs your arrest and detention at the Police Station.
We are available 365 days per year, 24 hours per day.
After your interview, we will make representations about bail if necessary and we will chase the Police closer to your bail date for an update as to what is likely to happen when you answer bail.
