Proceedings can be started in two ways – either by charge at the Police Station where you are formally told what the allegation is against you and the date you are due to appear in Court or for less serious offences by Summons which will be delivered to you by hand or by post. The Summons will state the allegation and the date you are due to appear in Court.
If you have been charged with an offence it means the Police believe they have sufficient evidence to gain a conviction against you in Court.
At Forresters, we can provide advice and assistance at the Police Station through to representation at Court.
