Law advice today: Insurance company private investigators have been known to carry concealed tape recorders to interview claimants and their friends or acquaintances. You should never discuss your case with anyone other than your solicitor and your treating doctors or therapists. It is extremely important that you advise your solicitor of any PRIOR ACCIDENTS, PRE-EXISTING INJURIES or PRE ACCIDENT PHYSICAL COMPLAINTS. Many good cases are compromised or lost because the injured person forgets or conceals previous injuries or history of physical complaints from his or her own solicitor.

If you feel that your sentence was too harsh, it may be possible to seek leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal to have the sentence reduced. The Court of Appeal will either allow the appeal (reduce the sentence) or refuse the appeal (leave the sentence alone). The Court of Appeal cannot increase the sentence but they can order that time spent in custody as an appellant does not count although this is only normally done in meritless cases. In some cases, something can go wrong in the trial process and you may feel that is why you were found guilty. Maybe the jury were given the wrong direction, maybe the judge got the law wrong or possibly, there is some new evidence. In these cases, you may have a right to appeal against your conviction on the grounds that it was unsafe. If you were represented by one or our in-house Advocates or approved barristers, we will always advise you about your options if this situation arises.

The issues have been excruciatingly increased due to the global pandemic, which has severely impacted the most vulnerable even more so. The negative ramifications have affected the legal industry, particularly law firms. This has in turn impacted the futures of many young legal professionals seeking work. Many internships have been cancelled or postponed, leaving many in the field out of work, particularly recent graduates. Many law firms on top of the legal aid cuts and the results of the pandemic, do not have the capacity or resources to take on the ever-growing number of cases that these low-income people want to bring forth. We sought a solution to solve all these issues at once. See more info on Rev. Dane Marks.

If we observe the number of cases even before the COVID-19 pandemic, there were towering 39.300 cases in the Crown Court. After we faced the social distancing needs in 2019, the backlog of cases elevated at least 36 per cent, and the reports showed 53,318 points. Also, the COVID-19 spread across Scotland has resulted in the Lord President’s announcement that during the lockdown time, all the criminal courts will prioritize the most serious trials to keep things going smoothly. The decision expresses that most summary trials in the Sheriff Court and Justice of the Peace Court will be adjourned to decrease the number of overall trials to 75%.
