About Our Site
CourtroomAdvice was formed to offer a unique reference point on comprehensive guidance on appearing in court.
CourtroomAdvice was created to provide information about the legal process, and is intended to help individuals who have questions about going to court. Whether you're a witness, claimant, defendant or juror you are likely to be apprehensive about attending court. Procedures and formalities in court can vary widely depending on the nature of the hearing and the type of court.
So whether it's the County Court, Crown Court or Magistrates' court, a family hearing, immigration matter or the Coroner's Court that you are attending, there is a wealth of information available on this site to ensure that you know what to expect. From your arrival at court through to the outcome of the case, this site guides you through each step of the process and the appeals, where applicable.
There are particular sections for victims of crime, people who have been arrested and charged with an offence, and how to complain about the police or the courts service as well as detailed information about representing yourself in the small claims court.
