Defence And Protection

Experienced Legal Representation for Criminal Cases

Criminal Law

 

Criminal law stands at the core of justice and accountability in society.

 

At Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys, we provide dedicated defence and representation in a broad range of criminal matters, protecting the rights and freedoms of individuals facing prosecution or investigation.

 

Our criminal practice is guided by the principles of fairness, discretion, and diligence — ensuring that every client receives strategic, thorough, and compassionate legal support through each stage of the criminal process.

Our criminal law services include:

Serious Offences And Indictable Crime

Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys provides steadfast defence in matters involving the most serious criminal charges, including murder, attempted murder, rape, armed robbery, aggravated assault, and kidnapping. These cases demand both legal precision and unwavering resolve. Our firm approaches each matter with discretion and strategic foresight — ensuring that every client’s constitutional rights are protected and that their defence is built upon a thorough examination of evidence, procedure, and due process.

White-Collar & Financial Crime

We represent individuals and entities accused of financial misconduct such as fraud, corruption and money laundering. Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys combines a sharp understanding of forensic accounting, corporate regulation, and evidentiary standards to navigate these complex cases. Our focus is on early intervention, detailed analysis of financial records, and the development of robust defence strategies that safeguard both reputation and liberty.

Sexual Offences & Vulnerable Victims

Cases involving sexual offences require sensitivity, integrity, and careful management of often highly personal evidence. Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys provides defence and guidance in matters relating to sexual assault, harassment, and offences involving minors. We prioritise fairness, the presumption of innocence, and the protection of client dignity at every stage of the process.

Criminal Procedure: Arrest, Bail, Search & Seizure

From the moment of arrest to the conclusion of trial, every procedural step can significantly affect the outcome of a case. Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys assists clients during the earliest phases — including arrests, bail applications, and the review of warrants, searches, and seizures. Our approach combines swift legal response with careful evaluation of procedural compliance, ensuring that unlawful evidence is challenged and that our clients’ rights remain protected throughout the investigation and prosecution.

Appeals, Review & Forensic / DNA Disputes

When convictions or sentences require reconsideration, Jordaan & Coetzer Attorneys provides skilled representation in appeals, reviews, and post-conviction matters. We critically examine trial records, evidence, and procedural integrity to identify grounds for relief. Our experience in forensic and DNA evidence disputes enables us to question scientific findings and ensure that justice is not compromised by error, oversight, or bias.

We resolve matters with as minimal disruption as possible while your legal rights are preserved and upheld throughout.
