Terrorism

Dealing with a terrorist-related charge?

A specialist area in itself where the powers of the police and prosecution are extensive. The word “Terrorism” is defined in section 1 of the Terrorism Act 2000. While not creating any offences itself this section defines the types of behaviour which will inform prosecutions for terrorism.
The definition is applicable but not limited to the following legislation concerning terrorism: Anti-Terrorism Crime and Security Act 2001, the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005, and the Terrorism Act 2006. The serious and heavily resourced ways such cases are approached are reflected in the sentences passed by the Courts upon conviction.
Please see some of the cases we have been involved in where we have represented people charged with offences relating to terrorism. It cannot be stressed enough that, if you are a suspect in a terrorist investigation or charged with a terrorism related offence, you should contact us immediately. 

Types of terrorism offences

There are a number of offences that fall under the term terrorism, and we are available to help you with such charges. Some examples of which are:
