This was recognised by way of a partnership in the firm, only 6 months after qualifying as a solicitor. Shahid has since, successfully defended in the most serious and complex criminal trials over the past 25 years, securing not guilty verdicts in some of the most difficult cases.  Shahid now heads the firm.

"I have been instructed by Middleweeks Solicitors for about 25 years both as a junior and Queen's Counsel. These are now usually various serious, complex and high-profile cases. There are few solicitors who are so persistent in pursuing the case for their clients. I have witnessed the outstanding client care that is provided. Cases are prepared with a thoroughness that is hard to come by these days. Any client can be rest assured that his solicitor will know every inch of their case and provide sound strategic advice that they can safely rely upon."

Why Middleweeks Prime  ?

We are able to convene urgent meetings with the most sought after barristers and QC's in the country at the 'drop of a hat'. This enables rapid and important decisions to be made at the early stage of any problem/investigation. Early strategy meetings have proven to be priceless in the past as they identify key issues and areas of attack which can prevent a prosecution. Pre charge advice would otherwise be unavailable through legal-aid.

It is vital for a successful defence to have adequate funding to properly challenge any investigation. The importance of this is critical throughout the entire process until a successful outcome has been achieved. 

 

This will involve a forensic analysis leaving no stone unturned of the evidence against you including a thorough examination of the 'unused material'. Our senior barristers will prepare clear advices which will set out the strengths and weaknesses in any particular case. This will be provided in writing and discussed in person with no pressure on time. This level of service and expertise would not be available through legal-aid. 

Jonathan Goldberg QC

"I have defended high-profile Middleweeks clients for well over 30 years, working especially closely with partners Carl Richmond and Shahid Choudhry. I am briefed from time to time by scores of different solicitors throughout the country and indeed also overseas, and I can honestly say their overall competence and level of client care is as good as any and better than most."
