Detained Outside Kent?
I cover police stations within about 45 minutes of Maidstone. I can go further, up to an hour each way, if you don't mind waiting a bit longer for me to arrive. If the station is further than that, here's what to do.
For Members of the Public
If an immediate family member is detained outside Kent
I can help if the station is close enough.
If the station is outside Kent (for example in London, Sussex or Surrey) but within about 45 minutes of Maidstone, or up to an hour each way if you don't mind waiting, I can still attend through Tuckers Solicitors LLP (SRA number 592449). This website is operated by Defence Legal Services Ltd.
Call and I'll tell you straight away if I can take it.
