Criminal Defence Solicitor in Westminster

Need a criminal solicitor for Westminster Magistrates’ Court or a police investigation in central London? Ghafar Khan offers urgent advice, representation and case preparation throughout England and Wales.

Police-station advice in Westminster

Westminster is within the Metropolitan Police area and includes multiple operational police locations. The custody suite or interview station must be confirmed from the officer or bail paperwork. Do not attend a station merely because it is the closest one to your address.

Use the official police local-area service to check current public contact information. In an emergency call 999; for non-emergency police contact call 101. Those numbers do not replace requesting a solicitor for interview.

Local Magistrates’ Court and Crown Court route

Westminster Magistrates’ Court is at 181 Marylebone Road, London, NW1 5BR. It hears a wide range of criminal and extradition work. Cases sent to the Crown Court may be allocated to Southwark, Inner London, the Central Criminal Court or another venue according to jurisdiction and listing.

Check the official HMCTS court listing before travel because addresses, opening arrangements and listings can change. A solicitor cannot simply move a hearing to another court; any application must be based on the case and the court’s powers.

Travelling to court

Marylebone station and Baker Street Underground station are nearby. Central London congestion and court security make early arrival essential. The court is opposite the Marylebone Road corridor, near Regent’s Park.

Criminal cases Ghafar Khan can consider

• arrest and voluntary interview representation
• police bail, released-under-investigation and charging decisions
• Magistrates’ Court hearings, bail applications and trials
