Our Criminal Law Department, headed by Kevin Commons, is the busiest in the county of Cumbria, and is staffed by experienced solicitors who specialise as criminal defence advocates.

As the holder of the Legal Services Commission Specialist Quality Mark, K.J. Commons & Co. has been independently assessed as a quality assured provider in this area of law. That means that our systems and procedures, and the standards of the advice we provide, are of the highest order - something that our reputation, earned over the last 12 years, confirms.

Our team can provide advice from the earliest stages of investigation right through to the conclusion of a case - be that at the Magistrates, Youth, or Crown Courts, the Court of Appeal or, should the case require it, the House Of Lords.

All our solicitors are "Duty Solicitors" - the highest case supervisor level attainable under the Legal Services Commission Specialist Quality Mark.

It also means that, with so many Duty Solicitors within the Firm, we are able to offer 24 hour Police Station cover, 365 days of the year.
