Criminal Investigations
Whilst Owen Beattie Solicitors have an outstanding reputation in the representation of clients before criminal courts, the best possible outcome for many is when an investigation concludes with a “no prosecution” decision.
Recognising the challenges and difficulties faced by clients throughout criminal investigations, Owen Beattie Solicitors provide 24/7 legal representation to individuals, organisations and businesses, who are subject to criminal investigation by investigatory agencies, including the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI), His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC), and the National Crime Agency (NCA).
Owen Beattie Solicitors work closely with clients, and offer tailored and strategic legal advice from the outset of the initial investigation and interview stage. We adopt a proactive approach, and engage with investigators at the earliest stage possible, to provide effective advice, and form an overall defence strategy, in an attempt to bring the investigation to a swift conclusion.
Our 24/7 service allows clients to contact our office when support is required. Whether through phone, email or other communication channels, Owen Beattie Solicitors deliver timely and expert advice, ensuring that assistance is provided without delay.
Many of our clients have had no prior involvement with the criminal justice system. We are highly experienced in the representation of lawyers, doctors, surgeons, accountants, business owners, teachers and other professionals, who have found themselves subject to a criminal investigation for the first time.
