Criminal cases and investigations in Saudi Arabia

What we cover in Saudi Arabia

Saudi criminal review requires the allegation, case stage and any summons, detention or prosecution document. Substantive offences and criminal procedure must be distinguished; defence preparation, evidence preservation and court representation have different requirements.

• Complaints and investigation response

  We review the allegation, notices and available records, organise the facts and prepare a complaint, written response or questions for the licensed lawyer handling the investigation.

• Financial crime, fraud and forgery allegations

  We trace transactions, authority, disputed signatures and communications to identify the alleged conduct and evidential gaps before preparing a legal position or submission.

• Cybercrime and digital-evidence questions

  We review messages, transaction records, account access and the source of digital material, then prepare an evidence chronology and legal assessment of the allegation.

• Detention and release applications

  We examine detention orders, procedural dates and supporting personal documents to assess the grounds for a release request and prepare it with the licensed local lawyer.

• Trial, appeal and procedural defence

  We compare the charge, hearing record and judgment with the evidence and defence submissions to prepare trial points or a reasoned assessment of appeal grounds.
