Aggravated Assault - No Further Action
No further action - police dropped investigation

The client faced allegations of harassment, intentional strangulation, and assault by beating. Holborn Adams submitted comprehensive post-charge representations to the Crown Prosecution Service, effectively arguing that the evidence was insufficient for a conviction. Our strategic approach led to the case being resolved with no further action, allowing the client to avoid the stress and stigma of ongoing legal proceedings.

Voyeurism - No Further Action
No further action - police dropped investigation

Facing allegations of voyeurism, the client was at risk of significant legal repercussions and public scrutiny. Holborn Adams quickly intervened, crafting comprehensive pre-charge representations to challenge the accusations. By highlighting gaps and inconsistencies in the evidence, the team effectively argued against the case's viability. As a result, the authorities decided not to take further action, allowing the client to avoid the distress of formal charges and a potential trial.
