GBH Solicitors in Coventry
Grievous Bodily Harm (GBH) is a serious offence that can lead to significant custodial sentences. At Askews Legal LLP, we offer specialist defence representation for GBH allegations across Coventry and Warwickshire.

Understanding GBH Charges
GBH can be charged under section 20 or section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. Section 20 covers inflicting serious injury recklessly, while section 18 is more serious and involves intent.
Our experienced criminal solicitors will examine the evidence in detail, consult medical experts if needed, and build a defence strategy suited to your circumstances.
Whether you’re facing allegations from a domestic incident, public altercation, or another scenario, we are here to help.

Can you take on my case?

We have a professional duty to be scrupulously honest, meaning you can trust that if we feel pursuing legal action is not in your best interests, we will tell you so. Furthermore, if we do not have the expertise to take on your case or there is a conflict of interest, we will refer you to another law firm.
