About Custody Note

What is Custody Note?

Custody Note is a digital note-taking and workflow tool for criminal defence professionals. It helps structure police station attendance notes, disclosure summaries, client instructions, advice, interview notes and follow-up actions.

Who is Custody Note for?

Custody Note is designed for criminal defence solicitors, accredited police station representatives, litigators and legal teams involved in police station and pre-charge work in England and Wales.

What Custody Note does not do

Custody Note does not provide legal advice, replace professional judgment, create a solicitor-client relationship, or guarantee compliance with professional obligations. It does not record or transcribe interviews — it is a structured note-taking and workflow support tool.

Test Custody Note in real workflows

A 30-day free trial gives you time to assess whether the structure fits the way you work at the police station.
