Bail, Remand, and Post-charge Support

Guidance on bail conditions, variations, breaches, and next steps after charge, including Legal Aid advice where applicable.

If you have strict bail conditions or a court date approaching, early advice can help you avoid problems.

Clear Next Steps After Charge

Being charged can raise urgent questions about what happens next. A solicitor can explain bail conditions, what your next hearing involves, and what to do if you need a variation or you are accused of a breach.

This service is designed to bridge the gap between police station advice and court representation. If Legal Aid may apply, a solicitor can explain eligibility and what is needed for an assessment.

Note: Legal Aid depends on the type of case and eligibility rules. A solicitor will assess your situation and explain what support may be available.
