Home /Police Interviews / Third Party Instructions

If a friend or member of your family has been unexpectedly arrested, please get in touch immediately with Watson Woodhouse Solicitors and we will act via third party instruction. We’re able to represent individuals during a police interview should they wish and have a wealth of knowledge and experience in doing so.

Solicitor representation is often the last thing an individual will think of having been taken into custody. Therefore, third party instruction ensures your loved one has direct access to a specialist solicitor right when they need one.

Request a Third Party Instruction Solicitor

If a solicitor is not requested, any defence could be damaged, especially if assigned an inexperienced duty solicitor. At Watson Woodhouse, we don’t wish to see this happen and are here for representation 24/7. The sooner you speak to our specialist criminal defence solicitors, the better. From contact, we can be present and ready for a police interview within just 20 minutes. This service is 100% free of charge.

What Our Clients Say

Latest Trustpilot Reviews

I would 100% recommend this practice. Andrew was fantastic, very efficient, full of good advice and fully represented my interests. Whenever I contacted the office the staff were very accommodating and professional. I will soon be going back to have a new will made and consider them now to be “my” solicitors. I am also grateful to the estate agent that pointed me in this direction.

Absolutely outstanding performance! If you are buying or selling a house, you need Watson and Woodhouse to do the conveyancing for you. Alisha Stevenson acted on my behalf for the purchase of my home and she completed the work in five weeks! Every other solicitor I approached said it would take twelve to sixteen weeks! I cannot say thank you enough times. Excellent communication. Excellent documentation. Excellent work. I highly recommend Watson and Woodhouse if you are considering buying or selling your house.

I have just used Watson Woodhouse for my conveyancing in my recent house sale. It was a total of 3 months from 1st hitting the market to completion and key handover. The services provided by Katie Gibson and Livvie Pruden were exceptional, keeping me in the loop and updated.

Sarah, Kirsty & Laura have helped me through the hardest time of my life. Their attention to detail, professionalism, empathy and kindness will be something that will stick with me forever.

A big thank you to Richard and the team at Watson Woodhouse. Your professionalism, knowledge and positive attitude made all the difference and ensured my house sale completed. You guided me through some complex issues and your advice was always first class

Watson Woodhouse looked after the sale of one house and the purchase of another. It was an excellent service. Alisha Stevenson made what is normally a stressful situation bearable with her professionalism. She is easy to talk to, She made herself available when she could and always returned a call when she couldn’t. Good value for money.

We used Watson Woodhouse for the sale of our home and purchase of our new bungalow. We would like to thank Katie Gibson, Jackie Howard and Livvie-Mae Pruden for all their help and support during this long process which was delayed by an issue with our vendor’s solicitors. The ladies acted with patience and kindness and were totally professional at all times. Thank you all so much.
