Defending Vulnerable Clients: Acquittal Achieved at Croydon Magistrates' Court




At The City Solicitors, we are committed to delivering robust legal representation, particularly for vulnerable clients. Recently, at Croydon Magistrates' Court, we achieved a significant success: Counsel Madelaine Pinto of Foundry Chambers, instructed by solicitor Davide Cupertino and caseworker Chiara Zaccone, secured an acquittal for a youth client accused of Actual Bodily Harm (ABH).



This case involved serious allegations that carried potentially life-changing consequences for a young and vulnerable client. Accusations of ABH can have profound personal and legal impacts, particularly for individuals who already face challenges due to their circumstances.


The prosecution’s case required thorough examination, with a focus on safeguarding the client’s rights and ensuring the evidence was properly scrutinised. Led by solicitor Davide Cupertino and caseworker Chiara Zaccone, The City Solicitors team worked closely with Counsel Madelaine Pinto to develop a comprehensive defense strategy. Key aspects included:


  • Detailed evidence analysis: Identifying weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.

  • Contextual advocacy: Highlighting the client’s vulnerabilities and the circumstances surrounding the allegations.

  • Courtroom advocacy: Presenting a clear, compelling defense that effectively demonstrated the lack of substantive evidence.

The collaborative efforts of the team ensured a well-prepared and persuasive defense in court.



The case concluded with a full acquittal, allowing the client to move forward without the burden of these allegations. This outcome underscores the importance of experienced legal representation in ensuring justice for vulnerable individuals.



This success at Croydon Magistrates' Court highlights the importance of thoughtful preparation and skilled advocacy. Whether you’re facing serious allegations or need guidance on a legal matter, The City Solicitors is here to help.
