Stressed About a Legal Issue? Let's Talk – Free for 30 Minutes

You don't have to figure it out on your own. Speak directly with a solicitor who cares – we'll help you understand your options and move forward.

What Is Criminal Conspiracy?

A criminal conspiracy charge means you’re accused of agreeing with one or more people to commit a crime — even if the crime never actually took place.

Under the Criminal Law Act 1977, conspiracy is defined as an agreement to commit an unlawful act. You don’t need to be caught in the act — the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) only needs to prove that an agreement existed and that there was intent (mens rea).

This can involve messages, phone records, or even encrypted communications like EncroChat, often presented as evidence of a plan. Being accused of helping to plan a drug deal or robbery — even without direct involvement — can still result in a conspiracy charge.

These cases are often complex, involving multiple defendants and wide-ranging digital evidence. That’s why you need expert legal defence from the start. At MMA Law, our criminal conspiracy solicitors in Middlesbrough have defended clients in some of the most serious conspiracy cases across England and Wales.

We act quickly to protect your rights during interviews under caution, challenge unlawful evidence, and develop early defence strategies. We understand how to scrutinise joint enterprise claims and dissect large-scale CPS investigations. Our team works closely with forensic analysts, barristers, and digital experts to expose weak points in the prosecution’s case.

If you're under investigation or facing charges, we’re here to give you clear, honest legal advice — with Legal Aid available for those who qualify. Every case starts with a free 30-minute consultation, so you can understand your position before things escalate.

How We Can Help You

If you’re facing a criminal conspiracy allegation, the right defence team can make all the difference. At MMA Law, we offer immediate legal support, a strategic approach to complex evidence, and strong courtroom representation — all tailored to conspiracy charges.

Immediate Legal Advice After Arrest

Early legal advice is critical in conspiracy cases. From the moment you’re arrested or invited to a voluntary interview, you should have a specialist conspiracy solicitor by your side.

MMA Law provides 24/7 police station representation. We help you understand your rights, challenge early allegations, and start building a defence strategy from the first interaction with the police.

Investigation Stage – Strategy and Evidence Gathering

We don’t wait for the CPS to act. Our solicitors take a proactive approach, securing vital evidence that could shape the outcome of your case.

This includes:

  • Analysing phone records, EncroChat messages, or digital forensics
  • Reviewing Crown Prosecution Service disclosure for inconsistencies
  • Gathering CCTV footage, alibi evidence, and witness statements
  • Identifying flaws in joint enterprise allegations

Whether you're accused of planning a drug operation or being involved in a wider organised crime network, we use forensic precision to test the prosecution’s case and protect your future.

Court Representation and Defence

Many conspiracy offences are tried at Crown Court, and cases are often complex and lengthy. That’s why experienced trial advocacy matters.

At MMA Law, our criminal defence solicitors in Middlesbrough work closely with leading criminal barristers, ensuring you receive strong, strategic representation throughout. We have a proven track record of defending conspiracy to supply drugs, conspiracy to commit murder, and large-scale fraud cases.

From the Magistrates’ Court hearing to full Crown Court trials, we’ll fight your corner with preparation, expertise, and determination.

Bail Applications and Remand Strategy

Being held on remand can be devastating for both you and your family. Our solicitors will act quickly to apply for bail, presenting clear, persuasive arguments and supporting evidence to the court.

We assess each case carefully — whether it’s your first hearing or a second application — and aim to reduce time spent in custody wherever possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a criminal conspiracy charge in the UK?

A criminal conspiracy charge involves an agreement between two or more people to commit a crime, even if the crime is never carried out. Under the Criminal Law Act 1977, the prosecution must prove intent and shared knowledge of the illegal plan.

Can I be charged even if the crime didn’t happen?

Yes. You can be charged with conspiracy if you were part of a plan to commit a crime, even if the offence was never completed. The offence lies in the agreement itself, not the outcome.

What is the sentence for conspiracy to supply drugs?

Sentencing depends on the class of drug and your role in the conspiracy:

  • Class A drugs: up to life imprisonment
  • Class B drugs: up to 14 years
  • Class C drugs: up to 14 years

Factors like quantity, role, and prior convictions affect the sentence. Judges follow Sentencing Council guidelines.

Do conspiracy charges go to Crown Court?

Almost always. Most conspiracy offences are serious enough to be heard in the Crown Court, especially if they involve Class A drugs, fraud, firearms, or organised crime. These trials often involve multiple defendants and complex evidence.

Can I change solicitors and move to MMA Law?

Yes. If you’re unhappy with your current solicitor, you have the right to request a transfer. MMA Law regularly takes over cases mid-proceedings. We’ll guide you through the process and liaise with the court and Legal Aid Agency if needed.

Is Legal Aid available for conspiracy charges?

Yes, Legal Aid is usually available. Due to the serious nature of conspiracy offences, most clients qualify for Legal Aid, depending on financial circumstances and case complexity. MMA Law can help you apply quickly and correctly.
