Why us?

Home > Why us?

Extensive industry experience

Unlike other law firms, who list criminal defence services as an addition to their main offerings, Alexander Bennett Solicitors is a long-established firm working exclusively in criminal law. As such, we offer an expertise and depth of knowledge derived from practising only criminal law, day in, day out.

Our qualified team of paralegals, solicitors, and partners regularly supports clients all over the UK, from overnight police station representation to long-running Crown Court cases.

We provide 24-hour comprehensive support across the board, including motoring offences, complex fraud allegations, sexual offences and much more. See our Specialist Areas for more details on the range of cases we are regularly instructed on.

Putting clients first

We have long been known as the go to firm for those needing a solicitor who will be fully present every step of the way.

Going the extra mile for our clients is part of who we are. Having left behind the larger ‘production line’ practices to concentrate on providing a high quality, personal service to our clients, we carefully select counsel and experts who work alongside us.

We aspire to treat each client as an individual and ensure that our clients’ rights are protected, all options are fully understood and that the most effective and robust defence strategy is mounted.

Ultimately, we are confident that we will reach the best possible outcome for each and every case, while also supporting our clients and their families through the entire process.

Legal support you can trust

Alexander Bennett Solicitors is highly regarded for both its criminal defence work and outstanding client care.

We are proud to be Lexcel accredited, meaning we have been formally recognised by the Law Society for our excellent practice management.

Our reputation for achieving excellent results is reflected in our loyal and far-reaching client base as well as the countless 5-star client reviews and testimonials, attesting to the quality of our service:

  Has to be one of the best firms out there! From start to finish, A&B Solicitors have been amazing. I’ve had multiple cases with them, and every single one has been handled professionally and with real care.

A huge thank you to Maryam for making me feel comfortable and constantly reassuring me that everything would be okay — she really took the time to listen and explain everything clearly, which made the whole process so much easier.

Also a big thank you to Kaium for always keeping me updated and answering any questions I had straight away. The communication has been excellent throughout — I never had to chase anything up.

They’ve done a lot to help me, including another case that was transferred to them after being stuck for about a year and a half to two years with another firm. As soon as A&B took it over, they got straight on it and finally got things moving.

And a big thanks to everyone else involved behind the scenes who helped with my cases — you can really tell the whole team works hard and genuinely cares about their clients.

Honestly, can’t recommend them enough — professional, supportive, and truly one of the best firms out there.

  I was represented by Alexander Bennett Solicitors for a case that began over a year and a half ago and has now finally been dismissed with all charges dropped. Throughout this long and complicated process, the team went above and beyond for me.

I would especially like to thank Maryam Saleem, who took on my case and provided clear guidance and support from the start, and Ali Shah, who represented me tirelessly in court — even working through his lunch break to make sure I was properly represented.

My circumstances at the time were very complicated, but they never gave up on me and always fought on my behalf. I truly believe that without their dedication, things would have been very different.

If I ever need legal support again, I will definitely return to Alexander Bennett Solicitors. They have proven they are professional, reliable, and genuinely care about achieving the best outcome for their clients.

  I want to sincerely thank Miss Laiba for representing me at the police station. She was professional, supportive, and guided me with great care during a very difficult time. Her knowledge of the law and her clear advice made me feel protected and reassured. She treated me with respect, listened carefully to my concerns, and stood by me when I needed strong legal support the most.
I am truly grateful for her dedication and would highly recommend Miss Laiba to anyone in need of a solicitor who is compassionate, reliable, and highly skilled.
