Notable Cases
Results that speak for themselves. A selection of recent outcomes achieved for our clients.
At MC Solicitors, results speak for themselves. Below are just a few examples of recent outcomes we have achieved for our clients. Every case is different, but our commitment to thorough preparation, expert representation and fighting for the best possible outcome never changes.
All Charges Dismissed — Breach of Criminal Behaviour Order
A vulnerable defendant faced 10 separate charges of breaching a Criminal Behaviour Order. Rather than proceeding directly to trial, we made detailed representations to the Crown Prosecution Service setting out the circumstances of our client's vulnerability and the weaknesses in the prosecution case. The CPS accepted our representations and all 10 charges were dismissed — without the need for a trial.
No Further Action — Before Interview
Our client was arrested on suspicion of a criminal offence. Before the police interview took place, we made proactive representations directly to the investigating officers setting out why there was insufficient evidence to justify a prosecution. The police accepted our submissions and took no further action — meaning our client was never even interviewed, let alone charged.
Acquittal — Failing to Provide a Specimen of Breath
Our client was charged with failing to provide a specimen of breath for analysis — an offence that carries a mandatory driving disqualification. Losing his licence would have had a serious impact on his livelihood. We prepared a robust defence and represented him at trial. The defendant was acquitted, keeping his licence and his livelihood intact.
Case Dismissed — Domestic ABH Trial
In a domestic ABH trial, the complainant failed to attend court on the first trial date. The prosecution made an application to adjourn proceedings to give the complainant a further opportunity to attend. We successfully opposed that application, arguing that an adjournment would not be in the interests of justice. The court agreed and refused to grant the adjournment. With no complainant present, the Crown offered no evidence and the case was dismissed.
