Understand the Case Before You Decide What to Do
A criminal or traffic case is rarely improved by guessing. The first job is to understand the allegation, the evidence, the consequences and the realistic options.
David's prosecution background provides perspective on how cases are screened, what evidence matters and how prosecutors evaluate resolution positions. Defence work adds the other side of that experience: identifying weaknesses, protecting rights and giving clients clear advice about risk.

Flat Fees Where the File Allows It
Many criminal and traffic matters can be quoted on a flat-fee basis once the charge, procedural stage and expected scope are known. More complicated trials or applications may require a different fee structure.
