Our Criminal Defence Lawyers based in Paisley and Greenock are widely recognised for their success in defending those accused of any crime in Scots Law. We are no ordinary criminal defence firm. We care about our clients and do more to make sure you are not only fearlessly defended in the face of prosecution but are well informed and supported through your involvement with our criminal justice system.
Murder is defined as taking another's life either with intent or wicked recklessness. Your trial will be heard in the High Court of Justiciary before a jury and you will be represented by a Senior Advocate, known as Counsel, or a Solicitor-advocate instructed by us on your behalf. In some more complex cases you may have both Senior and Junior Counsel appointed.
Assault is an intentional physical attack on another which causes harm, is intended to cause harm or an alleged victim is put in a state of fear for his safety. This means that attempting to physically attack someone is also considered an assault. It is often the case that our clients find themselves in situations in which they have had to defend themselves or another and end up being the person charged.

I used Robert Kerr Partnership for an issue which I though my would be quite difficult. From start to finish they were nothing but professional, reassuring and explained the process thoroughly for me. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and if I need legal advice in the future I’ll be sure to return. Thanks guys for all your help and guidance.

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID at all costs!
I was provided Robert Kerr himself to defend me at court recently.
Robert Kerr took on my case, gave terrible advice, lied to me which resulted in insane bail conditions banning me from Scotland which is where my young daughter resides, this also resulted in me becoming homeless all over an allegation of criminal damage.
Why did Robert Kerr do this? Because he is an acquaintance of my accuser, something he eventually admitted WEEKS after I asked him.
Very sly tactics from someone who is clearly old enough to know better. Regarding my case I binned Robert Kerr
