Robert Rinder MBE

Criminal Defence

Robert has always maintained an interest in cases involving the defence of allegations of serious criminal wrongdoing. He is sought out by solicitors for the forensic skills and thorough analysis of complex, paper-heavy cases that he brings with him from his white collar work.

He is regularly led in cases of murder, and acts as sole counsel in cases of attempted murder and other cases of serious, non-fatal violence.
