Active Pace™ & Active Pace PLUS™
The Legal Aid cutbacks (applicable to
all firms) mean that at the police station level, the public purse will
increasingly only pay for 'justifiable and necessary' attendances by lawyers.
The result of this is that public funds are no longer available for
preparation that we believe to be essential. If you are due to attend a police
station or have been released on bail, our private services might
include:
- Advancing and protecting your interests. Our team are adept at liaising with investigating officers, making representations to the CPS and checking on the progress of your case. For example, we may seek to vary your bail conditions.
- Personal communications. This may be face to face, over the phone or via email as currently preferred by most of our clients. This may involve answering any questions you may have about legal, factual issues or procedures.
- Strategies. Each Active PACE™ package is tailored specifically to the client's needs and agreed before work begins. We can be pro-active and plan the necessary preparation in order to obtain long term beneifts for our clients. An example might be where there are medical or scientific activities to be explained.
Therefore,
M23LAW has developed the concept of Active PACE™. This is a (non-returnable) fixed
fee limited retainer that covers the above-mentioned work. The fixed fee means
that you do not have to worry about hourly rates
and escalating costs.
Active PACE™
includes all advice and assistance that we deem necessary over the relevant
period. Please contact 0844 2640 999

Active PACE PLUS™ - Latest options which include face to face consultations when necessary.
