CRIMINAL LAW

The most important thing for you to know is, that you have a right to a lawyer at all stages of a criminal proceeding and that The Law Offices of Uudenmaan Lakimiehet Oy is willing to assist you with all your legal needs in your criminal case.
The criminal proceeding starts when a police contacts you in order to interrogate you as a suspect of a crime. You should then remember and know , that most people accused of a crime have actually incriminated themselves with their own words in the police investigation. If you make mistakes in the police investigation, it is in some cases almost impossible to correct them any more in the court room.
So, if there is a risk, that you will be charged with a crime, you should contact a lawyer already before you will be investigated by police. And if you will be arrested by police, you have the right to say that you want to see a lawyer before the interrogation.
If you are charged with a crime in the court, you have the right to a defense lawyer who will protect your rights in the proceeding. Only a person with legal education and trial experience knows what arguments to make and what kind of evidence to present to the court for your protection.
If you will be convicted of a crime, The Law Offices of Uudenmaan Lakimiehet Oy will handle your appeal to the court of appeal.
Our area of practice geographically comprises the area of all Finland at all court levels.
