Case study
Mary Monson Solicitors were instructed on behalf of a young man with a high profile career, being investigated for distributing indecent images of children on social media.
Our client was understandably concerned about the impact being charged with such an offence would have on his career and his family life.
The allegation was taking a toll on our client and his family, and we were instructed to manage the case and keep in regular contact with the police to ensure that the proceedings were conducted swiftly.
The police ultimately decided to take no further action, and undoubtedly arrived at this decision sooner because we were in regular contact with them and ensured that they were conducting their investigation as swiftly as possible.
