Sansbury Douglas is a firm of Solicitors with a national reputation for our criminal defence work, specialising in the defence of those being investigated or prosecuted for criminal offences. We came into being as the result of a merger in 2010 between Sansbury Campbell and Douglas and Partners, and as a result we are one of the largest firms providing these services in the South West.

We have the resources to deal with every criminal case, large or small.  We offer an emergency service 24 hours a day, every day of the year.  Our unique combination of skills, expertise and commitment means that we deliver the best service at every level, from the Police Station through the Magistrates Court to the Crown Court and beyond.

Our expertise covers every area of the Criminal Law, including serious and complex fraud, serious crime, confiscation, motoring law and regulatory crime.

We are a forward thinking practice, seeking pro active and creative solutions and outcomes for all of our clients, no matter how difficult their position is. We are a friendly accessible team, who simply care about getting the best possible result for you.  We will use clear language in all of our dealings with you so that you know what to expect, and can make the best possible decisions and choices.

We will do all we can to put you at ease in what can often be very stressful circumstances.

Our office is based in Central Bristol, and we cover work throughout the South West, South Wales, North to Birmingham and East to London and the Home Counties. We can offer an unrivalled service both to local communities and to those travelling from further afield.
