My name is Duncan Henderson. I am the sole practitioner and owner of the firm. I set up this practice in 2002 to specialise in criminal defence work. My office manager is Mrs Sarah Henderson,BSc, a qualified grade 1 paralegal. I hope you will find this website helpful. Experience shows that clients have found this a useful way of making contact with me resulting in their cases being successfully defended in Court.

I undertake all aspects of criminal law including road traffic, sex offences, dishonesty, assault, drugs etc. The work covers everything from initial police interview up to High Court indictments. When required I also undertake criminal appeals.

I undertake work in Inverness Sheriff and Inverness JP Courts. This covers Inverness, Ardeseir, Nairn, Strathspey and Beauly areas. I have had to concentrate on these two Courts due to pressure of business. I also undertake High court work and any appeals arising (if required).

A client wrote to me on 31st December 09 saying "I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your work on this case. It is clearly apparent that you have spent considerable time and attention working with me to gather the right information, collating this and subsequently presenting it in a way that is understandable and acceptable to the court. You have managed to reach what I consider to be a very positive outcome in relation to my charge, in fact it is fair to say that I believe you have managed to reach probably the best possible outcome there could have been. This whole process has been extremely unfamiliar to me and since my initial contact with you I have found you patient and extremely responsive to all my numerous questions and queries. Your calm manner and clear explanations have really helped me understand the process every step of the way, and helped me to remain calm through what has been a distressing and unnerving few months. I genuinely hope I never need legal representation again, however if I do ever have a need I would most definitely come to you first. I would positively recommend your services to anyone requiring legal representation, without any hesitation."

Another client wrote to me in February 2010 saying "Please allow me to take this oppertunity to show my absolute gratitude and thanks for all your time, work and advise in dealing with my court appearences over the last few months.
I have to say that the last few months have been the longest months of my life as I was convinced I was going to spend time in custody. The whole thing feels like a sentence in itself and i certainly have learnt my lesson. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome and to be honest I have a new found respect for the law and intend to stay on the correct side of it for the rest of my life."

I would like to provide you with a similar service and to assist you if you need an experienced criminal solicitor in Inverness.
