Who we work with
LAW ENFORCEMENT
Harper Shaw are available to consult with Law Enforcement Agencies and provide investigative advice on strategies for dealing with serious and complex crime.
Our expertise and professional credentials support the fact that we have overseen some of the most complex fatal collision enquiries likely to be encountered.
Criminal Justice System
We apply our extensive knowledge of police procedures and legislation under the Criminal Procedure and Investigation Act 1996 to take instruction from Criminal Defence Solicitors to appraise police investigations. The objective of this is to ensure that all reasonable lines of enquiries have been pursed and the investigation has been carried out to a satisfactory standard fit for the levels of scrutiny it will come under at a criminal trial.
We work with Criminal Defence Solicitors from an early stage to secure and preserve independent evidence
