Charles Ferguson Solicitors maintain a dedicated criminal defence office in East Kilbride, available by appointment, allowing us to meet with clients based in the area more conveniently and locally. This office offers proximity to the courts serving East Kilbride residents, including the Sheriff Courts, Justice of the Peace Courts, and High Courts in Hamilton and Glasgow.
Unlike some firms that rely solely on years in practice as a measure of competence, we believe continuous professional development is essential. Our team actively engages in training and legal development to ensure we provide the most effective, modern, and strategic defence available. We pride ourselves on adapting our approach, avoiding outdated methods, and consistently striving to improve.
We are often instructed by clients who are dissatisfied with the service received from other solicitors and welcome new instructions—whether from individuals facing criminal charges for the first time or those seeking to transfer their case to us. We ensure that every client is heard, respected, and placed at the centre of their case. Our solicitors listen carefully, provide clear advice, and make certain our clients’ voices are represented both in our internal casework and in court.
At Charles Ferguson Solicitors, our priority is to protect, represent, and advise our clients with care and conviction. Whether the matter concerns a minor road traffic offence at the Justice of the Peace Court or a serious charge such as murder, rape, or historical sexual offences, we offer a robust and strategic defence at every stage.
We have a proven record of success for East Kilbride clients, including securing acquittals in serious cases. For example, we successfully defended a local man charged with murder by presenting a defence of accident, which was accepted by a jury. We have also secured acquittals in cases involving serious sexual allegations, assault, and other criminal charges.
If you require a defence lawyer to represent you at Lanark Sheriff Court please contact Charles Ferguson Solicitors office today.
