The nature of these cases
Sexual offence cases frequently turn on the credibility and reliability of evidence, the circumstances in which allegations were made, and the way in which the complainant's account has been recorded and disclosed. These cases can also involve specific procedural protections, including name suppression applications and particular rules around the giving of evidence.
Why discretion matters
Given the sensitivity of these matters, Harry approaches every sexual offence case with a high level of discretion and professionalism, understanding the significant personal and reputational stakes involved for clients.
Why early advice matters
Early legal advice is particularly important in sexual offence cases. Decisions around whether to participate in a Police interview, how disclosure is approached, and whether name suppression is sought can all have a significant bearing on the case. Getting experienced advice as early as possible gives you the best opportunity to protect your position.
