Defending Suspects at Police Stations is the definitive guide for those advising detainees at the police station. It is an essential purchase for solicitors, duty solicitors, custody officers, criminal law students and in particular for those preparing for police station accreditation.

The author’s authoritative guidance is unrivalled. Comprehensive yet highly accessible and practical, Defending Suspects provides the answers to every day practical questions and problems. Initial chapters explain the basic principles of defending clients at the investigative stage and examine the key provisions of PACE and the Codes of Practice. Subsequent chapters tackle the various stages of advising a client including taking instructions, advising on ‘silence’, interview strategies, samples and searches, identification procedures and the charge decision. The book also includes dedicated chapters on advising and assisting vulnerable clients, on enforcement of the PACE and Code provisions, and on advising immigration detainees.

For this edition, Ed Cape is joined by Matthew Hardcastle and Sandra Paul of Kingsley Napley who bring years' of experience between them. Jawaid Luqmani of Luqmani, Thompson and Partners continues to provide his expertise in immigration law for chapter on immigration detainees.
