Richard Bayliss Solicitor | Criminal Defence Opiniones 50

I have nothing but good things to say about Richard and his legal services.
For those of us that have no prior knowledge of the criminal justice system, it can be a very frightening experience to have to go through. At these times you need someone that you can trust and rely on; Richard Bayliss was that person for me.
From the very beginning, Richard was non-judgemental, professional and experienced in helping people through the criminal justice system. And perhaps just as important are Richard's interpersonal skills that really put you at your ease and the way that he explains sometimes very complex legal issues in a down-to-earth manner. His fees are also very reasonable and worth every penny.

Richard keeps in regular touch with you and will give you updates on your case, without you having to chase him. Importantly, when you are in court, Richard is able to guide you through the process and manages the things that you cannot control, yourself.

I feel very lucky to have found and employed Richard as my solicitor and I have no hesitation in highly recommending him.

From my first contact with Richard through to completion of my case Richard has been supportive, caring, respectful and the ultimate professional.
I have had the opportunity to meet with Richard face to face, via online platforms and through email and telephone and in all forms of communication Richard has never made me feel rushed or time limited and has been attentive, patient and genuinely caring.
Whenever the situation became overwhelming Richard was there to help, support and guide me.
If you find yourself in need of representation I can, without a doubt, highly recommend Richard.

If you are on here because you are searching for a defence solicitor then you are very likely feeling as my son was when we contacted Richard Bayliss.
Early contact with other law firms and solicitors had only made his situation feel much worse.
Then we found Richard. Wow! Do it, instruct him now!
The previous reviews really do say it all.
If you want an excellent criminal defence solicitor for a sexual images case look no further.
Richard goes the extra mile, and I honestly believe if we hadn't found him, my son would not have received a Caution following the investigation.
Thank you Richard!

If you are reading reviews for any defence solicitor on Trustpilot then you are probably already in a very difficult situation, I was when I first contacted Richard. From our first conversation Richard showed an understanding of my situation paired with compassion and empathy which continued all the way through my case.
His clear and concise explainantion of both the law and my situation was invaluable. This meant I was able to understand the whole process, my situation and the possible outcomes.
He worked tirelessly for me and was responsive and always available when I had questions.
His detailed preparation and attention to detail all the way through the process made such a difference and allowed us to get the result that we hoped for from the start.
I cannot recommend Richard highly enough. If you are here and reading this review because you need a defence solicitor, then I don't think you can do any better than Richard Bayliss of defencesolicitor.net.

Richard took me when no one would. Some time 2023, I was desperately looking for a solicitor to help me as the initial duty solicitor did not seem interested enough. Transitioning from a duty solicitor to Richard was the best thing that happened. He handled all the background process and helped me on both Magistrate and Crown court appearances. Thanks to Richard and his team I get a second chance in life

Firstly I would like to concur with all the previous reviewers comments, Richard is that good.
I started the case badly, without a solicitor present at my arrest interview. It got worse when I employed the duty solicitor at the first hearing at magistrates court, I would have been better off employing the prosecutor to defend me! Facing a bucket full of charges dealing with IIOC and people helpfully saying "Wow They've really thrown the book at you" I was determined to plead not guilty, having nothing to fear from the truth. I scanned the internet looking for a decent IIOC specialist solicitor, I found Richard and booked an online consult, he knows his stuff and I was greatly encouraged. Richard is both reassuring and realistic which was perfect for me. Richard was impressively assertive but also very respectful when we went to the preliminary court hearing. To cut a long story short, after much work on the defence, the CPS sent a letter saying they will not be offering any evidence at the Crown Court Trial. Acquitted!

Richard Bayliss Solicitor

Richard and his small team took on my case just over two years ago and I cannot thank them enough for their thoroughness, clarity of thought, sound judgement and excellent council throughout all of this time. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone who needed strong representation during difficult times.

Richard is a fantastic solicitor and person. Richard worked with me for 13 months and provided much more than just representation. He is honest and realistic, always maintaining a professional approach and explaining all options at each stage. He has patience and emotional intelligence and provided me with the support and advice I needed at some dark times along with consistent and high quality representation. I would have no hesitation recommending Richard highly to anyone and if you need a defence solicitor look no further than Richard.

Richard was fantastic. We couldn’t have done this without him.

He offered complete support throughout the process.

Every step of the way Richard explained what he was doing and why.

Richard and his friendly office manager were very calm and reassuring at all times.

Can’t thank them enough.

I hired Richard after being subject to a criminal investigation of a seriously taboo nature. He was understanding and knew exactly what we would do.

This process was over a 2 year period and during that period Richard was the consummate solicitor, diligent, professional, truly world class. He had tremendous insight, analytical skill and was always one step ahead of the investigation. We got the outcome we desired and in a way that reduced the stress of me by an insurmountable level.

Legal counsel like Richard is worth his weight in gold so if you ever need criminal defence, there is only one person I would recommend without hesitation, Richard Bayliss.

A 6-star service from Richard (defence solicitor) for which I can only give a 5-star rating.

After being arrested in 2022 and subsequently charged, I asked Richard to work on my case, as I had absolutely no experience of the Criminal and Justice System.
From start to finish, Richard has been fantastic, and provided excellent advice and support. Richard is incredibly organised, experienced, and non-judgemental in his approach (despite the unsavoury nature of offences).
His knowledge of the CSJ and other cases is superb; and that was a massive help and morale boost. Working with Richard to present the best case meant that we could achieve a suspended sentence, which was far from evident.
I cannot recommend Richard highly enough; working with him will be a great first step towards a new chapter in your life.

I'd like to thank Richard for his assistance in dealing with my case. I never felt like he was judging me and his advice and experience in this area of the law proved invaluable. I can't recommend him enough.

Far exceeded my expectations, not only for the sound, honest advice in all legal matters and consequential matters but also for the friendly, open and non judgemental attitude. Ultimately, there is no way I would of got the outcome I did in court without his guidance.

From day one to the very end Richard was a calming sense of reason advice and support. His attention to detail and knowledge is comforting it helps to know you are in the very best of hands. Richard ensured I knew what to expect and when at every point along the way. I could not have endured the last year without him steering the boat. I can only say this was the best choice I’ve ever made I trusted him implicitly and he rewarded that trust with a great final result

I found Richard through the internet, & I couldn't recommend him more highly. Professional, considerate & brilliant at explaining the situation in straight forward language. Assisted in appointing a great barrister & expert witnesses. He achieved a fair & best possible outcome - Many Thanks Daniel

I honestly don't know where to begin to say just how amazing Richard is!! If you are after a loyal, honest and reliable solicitor then I highly suggest you speak to Richard. He serves with no judgement what so ever and he makes it so so easy and comfortable for you to talk to him. He was there for me and my partner from day one for an 'indecent images' case, which ended with an absolutley fantastic result. This was all down to Richards doing, and we know it would of been a completley different story if we didn't have Richard by our side. He is truley an amazing and kind human being, and has been a blessing through our whole scenario. Thank you again Richard from the bottom of our hearts for everything x

A really diligent and professional solicitor. I only had brief interactions with Richard requesting his services for an upcoming court case I have. Unfortunately he was unavailable as he is representing someone else on this date. This is where you usually would think communication would cease. Richard however suggested another solicitor he knows of. After speaking to them and finding out they were also busy - he then suggested another! I haven't got representation yet but needless to say I am very grateful and impressed by Richard's communication style and the fact that he will go the extra yard - even if you are not a client of his. I think it says a lot about him as a person and a lot about the way he handles his actual cases. Very highly recommended!

My son unfortunately found himself having to use the services of Richard at the age of 18. Richard was kind and compassionate as well as honest. My son has Autism and we needed the consistency of one person dealing with his case as well as someone that would communicate with me as although over 18 his executive function and social, emotional age does not match his actual age. We engaged Richard when our Son was RUI and this really helped as Richard communicated with the Police and kept what could of been a very long process to Just under a year (These cases can take a few years on average, IIOC)

Richard would always answer my emails when I had questions. I felt very confident my son was in good hands in his care. My son always came out more confident about his case after speaking to Richard. Unfortunately, my son's case went to the Crown Court, Richard in-listed Claire as our barrister, this was 100% the best choice. Richard gets to know his clients and then will make the best choice from his team of barrister for them.

I can't thank Richard enough, he truly made an unpleasant experience run more smoothly and get us the best outcome we could have asked for.

Although the experience can't be considered pleasant, Richard was there for me at every turn. Making sure I understood and was prepared for any eventuality. With a warm and friendly manner Richard communicated and sought out the best possible outcomes. Reassuring me and my wife whilst dealing very tactfully with very sensitive information. I personally would not want to use anybody else other than Richard or at least consult him for legal advise as I know if he felt there was someone more qualified than him in other areas he would tell me. This experience has shown that Richard is completely trustworthy and puts my needs as a client first.

Richard was great for us when he represented our son, he was thorough, professional, patient, responsive and very knowledgeable. I truly believe it was due to him that it made this process so much more manageable. We had a very good outcome and I would definitely recommend him.
