Criminal law is the body of law that relates to crime. It proscribes conduct perceived as threatening, harmful, or otherwise endangering to the property, health, safety, and moral welfare of people inclusive of one’s self. Most criminal law is established by statute, which is to say that the laws are enacted by a legislature. Criminal law includes the punishment and rehabilitation of people who violate such laws.

Criminal law varies according to jurisdiction, and differs from civil law, where emphasis is more on dispute resolution and victim compensation, rather than on punishment or rehabilitation.

We operate on a ‘No Win – No Fee*’ policy which, simply put, provides that if a client is unsuccessful in their personal injury or compensation claim then we will not raise a tax invoice for having acted on behalf of the client. That is, if the claim is unsuccessful, we do not get paid. More information about how this works can be found on our No Win – No Fee page.
