At The Police Station
If you're at a police station right now, or expecting to be taken to one at any moment, you need our help urgently - and more than you may realise.
DWP Interviews
If you are suspected of claiming benefits when you knew you were not entitled to them; or if you failed to notify of a change in your circumstances such as a partner moving in with you, a child has left home, or you have found employment, and you carried on claiming, you will be asked to go to an interview at the offices of the Department of Work and Pensions, HMRC or your local authority.
The Magistrates Court
If you have been charged or summonsed, you will be given a date to attend the Magistrates' Court, and unless your case is either too serious or you decide you want a trial by jury, the proceedings will start and end there.
The Crown Court
If your case is to be heard in the Crown Court, then you will have either chosen to have your trial before a jury, or you will have been sent to the Crown Court by the Magistrates because the case is too serious.
