Legal representation at the police station for internet and social media crimes

Legal representation for criminal offences involving the internet and social media

Unfortunately, when criminal offences involve internet use, it can be a real challenge to find ‎suitable legal representation or a police station accredited representative who has adequate knowledge and experience, to deal with such matters.‎ The vast majority of criminal defance lawyers who are qualified to provide legal representation at the police station, lack in the understanding which is required to be able to adequately represent their clients in relation to internet and social media crimes.

Still, too many alleged suspects who are called in for questioning, or who are being questioned by the police about internet related crime, end up with poor legal representation at the police station and at court, by ‎lawyers who simply fail to properly grasp how the internet and social media really work.

There are also too many solicitors, barristers and often judges, who still find analysis of forensic internet and social media evidence extremely challenging and who find phrases such as SEO, DNS or URL too confusing and too ‎‎"technical" to understand. At the same time, suspects who face police station interviews and possibly a charge for a serious criminal offence, are often unaware of the ‎possibility that their actions could actually land them in jail.‎

The lack of understanding of the internet, in its deepest meaning, within many in the legal profession, could result in a significant disadvantage to a suspect who had been summoned to a police interview in a police station, where their telephone and computers are taken away from them and where their rights as suspects in a digital investigation is not communicated both to them and to the police property. If your police station representative is lacking the much needed knowledge and understanding of how the internet really works, this could impact on the outcome of the police investigation, and possibly the outcome of any criminal trial.

Internet and Social Media Law Legal Advice FAQ

Specialist legal representation is crucial in internet and social media-related criminal offences due to the complexity and technical nature of evidence. Lawyers with expertise in this field are better equipped to understand forensic evidence and protect the rights of the accused.

Experienced social media lawyers can offer proactive and informed representation, often understanding the evidence better than the investigating officers. This can place the client in a stronger, more confident position during police investigations.

Lawyers at Cohen Davis Solicitors are qualified solicitors with over 20 years of experience in criminal defence law and specialise solely in social media and internet law, providing them with a unique edge in representing clients effectively.

Understanding forensic evidence is crucial as it allows for proper analysis and interpretation of digital data, which can disprove the police case against an accused individual. Lack of this understanding can lead to wrongful conclusions.

Yes, with Cohen Davis Solicitors, continuity is maintained as the same specialist legal team that represents a client at the police station will handle the case throughout, ensuring expert representation in all stages.

Specialists in criminal defence law police station representation and litigation

Specialists in social media and internet law and have been practicing this one area of law only

To give one example, we can ‎obtain full disclosure from GoDaddy or PayPal by issuing quick subpoenas in their local courts in ‎less than 48 hours.

It would take the police on the other hand at least 4 months just to obtain ‎permission and the necessary budget to process a request for the same evidence.‎ Our specialists criminal defence lawyers’ experience means they can often gain fast access to evidence that could make significant different to your case.

Expert analysis of criminal forensic evidence

Because our law firm is a specialist firm in social media and internet law, we have built systems and processes that are unique to our law firm and which help us process and analyse large amounts of information with relative ease and with a huge efficiency.

We have an app that can digitally analyse forensic evidence, and we use high-end tools and the latest technology, including artificial intelligence to help us find, review, analyse and understand large volume of evidence that could disprove the police case against you.

If you don’t have access to those tools, you could easily find yourself having to go through hundreds and even thousands of digital posts, in the old fashioned way, a where some evidence or their context could easily be lost or misunderstood.

Police station attendance all over the UK

If the police wants to speak to you, or to a family member about an internet law or social media related criminal offence, you will often be first approached by the police to arrange for a police interview. As soon as you are contacted by the police, get in touch with our office and we will do all the arrangements for you to make sure that you are represented at the police station by the highest calibre internet and social media lawyer.

If you have been arrested and you, or your family member is already at the police station, waiting to be questioned by the police, we can often attend on short notice anywhere in London, Essex and parts of Hertfordshire, and anywhere within the M25, under short notice.

If you are arrested and taken to a police station which would require long travel, we will either provide you with telephone advice or will try to persuade the police to release you on bail and rearrange your police interview to a date and a time where you can have your specialist social media and internet law solicitor attending with you.

Continuity of legal representation

If then you are arrested or prosecuted for a criminal offence involving the use of the internet, you ‎might find that your local criminal lawyer or the duty solicitor is unable to effectively represent you at the police station or ‎in court. This is because most criminal lawyers in the UK who are also accredited, and qualified police station representatives are not internet literate.

If you wish to receive effective legal ‎representation concerning internet crime, you will be better off approaching a ‎lawyer who specialises in internet law and who is also a certified police station representative with ‎relevant experience in criminal law. ‎ As our internet law and social media crime lawyers are also fully accredited police station ‎representatives, we should be able to help.

Our lawyers will represent you in relation to contempt of court, ‎breach of court orders, harassment, breach of privacy, threats to kill, public order offences, ‎regulatory breaches, coercive behaviour, revenge porn and other communication offences. After you are released from the police station, and if you are charged with a criminal offence, you can rest assured that there will be continuity in representation by the very same lawyers who took your initial instructions and represented you at the police station.

Your case will stay with a specialist social media and internet law legal team who will continue to deal with your case as expert social media lawyers all the way through. Unlike most other law firm, who pass the case to a litigation team after the police station stage, our criminal law team is part of our internet law and social media firm and all lawyers have received the same high quality social media and criminal law training both from the forensic and from the evidential aspect of it.‎
