Huddersfield police-station advice

West Yorkshire Police lists Huddersfield Police Station at 72 Northgate, Huddersfield HD1 6AE. The force has changed helpdesk arrangements during 2026, so check current official information before attending unless you have been directed there for bail or interview.

Legal advice at the police station is free and independent. Ask for Ghafar Khan by name. You may also request a solicitor for a voluntary interview under caution; “voluntary” does not mean the allegation is unimportant.

Courts serving Huddersfield

Kirklees (Huddersfield) Magistrates’ Court and Family Court is at Court House, Civic Centre, Huddersfield HD1 2NW. HMCTS currently lists court and telephone hours from 9am to 5pm, with the counter generally open Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm.

Representation can include first appearances, bail and remand applications, case preparation, trials, sentencing and applications to vary bail conditions. If you have missed court or fear a warrant has been issued, seek advice urgently rather than waiting for the police to attend.
