Importation

Robust defence strategies on customs and importation allegations, informed by the latest developments in the law.

Overview

Importation cases — drugs, firearms, prohibited goods — often turn on knowledge, route of supply and the strength of surveillance evidence. We build defences that test every link in the prosecution chain.

How we help

  • Detailed review of Border Force, NCA and HMRC evidence
  • Telephone and cell-site analysis with independent experts
  • Surveillance log scrutiny and disclosure challenges
  • Conspiracy and joint enterprise defence strategies
  • Confiscation (POCA) representation post-conviction

Importation indictments often involve hundreds of pages of disclosure. Without a specialist defence team, key weaknesses go unspotted.
