Olliers has vast experience of defending harassment allegations which dates back over 25 years. The firm’s reputation for committed and rigorous defence work means that we attract some of the most serious criminal cases in the country.
Harassment involves pursuing a course of conduct which a person either knew or ought to have known amounted to harassment. There is a more serous offence of harassment that causes a person to fear that violence will be be used. Harassment offences can cover a wide range of activities including, in certain circumstances, text messages and telephone calls. Such offences can also be alleged to have taken place over a significant period of time. Very often allegations of harassment arise in the context of the end of a relationship.
Convictions for harassment offences can have a hugely detrimental effect on an individual’s character and future prospects. It is essential that advice is sought at an early stage where harassment is being alleged.
