Falsely accused by someone with apparent mental health issues
A solicitor firm that specialises in property is not the same as one experienced in defending false allegations. It's a completely different subject altogether.

Do they have a criminal defence department?
Yes, the lady indeed specialises in serious cases, like murder and rape. The firm have a good spectrum of good solicitors, I've always used them, and they are now going on the recommended solicitors list because..........INSTANT NFA!
Thanks to everyone for positive support, I can honestly say that today I didn't feel alone because of this forum and the incredibly strong people here!
I'm staying around to provide whatever support I can. This is the second time I've been through this hell, and although this time was brief, it was indeed hell.
The OIC showed great respect and saw common sense prevail from the off, so a rare "hats off" to the police.
Just shows that they're not all out to get us, as it seems quite often I'm sure. Here's hoping everyone who is falsely accused has a common sense loving OIC!!!

The police are attending my home address tomorrow. Despite them saying it'll just be a quick chat to clear it up (they confirmed it was to do with this girl),
Interesting about the home chat/interview; I've never heard of this before, and of course it would not have been possible to tape it, so I wonder if it was always intended to be an informal way of telling you that the case wasn't going to be proceeded with.
Yeah I know. I've never come across this or heard of this before!
I now feel the same way, that it was the OIC's way of saying 'relax, nothing to worry about'
I totally understand that the police have to do everything to satisfy:
a)public interest
b)the alleged victim and their network
When I heard that he was visiting my home, I automatically assumed that it was a tactic to put me at ease. However, I've had many years contact with my solicitor over property, business, a GBH and a robbery (I'm no saint, but I'm not a rapist).
I concluded, after a legal chat, that this is a tactic the police CAN use, since 2006 apparently. So be warned. Home, office, police station.......an interview IS an interview, just right now if it's away from the station, you're looking good.
