General Crime
The cornerstone of Chambers’ practice is the provision of specialist advocates who defend and prosecute in trials of serious, complex and high profile crime.
Our casework includes murder, terrorism, corporate manslaughter, war crimes, drug trafficking, fraud, corruption and organized crime.
We are consistently first choice counsel for leading criminal defence solicitors both in London and throughout the United Kingdom. At the same time we have a strong tradition of appointment to Treasury Counsel at the Central Criminal Court, Standing Counsel to HM Customs & Excise and other prosecuting bodies.
We are listed as preferred counsel by the Attorney General, Serious Fraud Office, Crown Prosecution Service Special Casework and major defence solicitors.
We are cited as leading experts in our various fields by all respected and independent legal professional guides.
As leading practitioners, many of our cases are cited as legal authority and attract considerable media coverage and comment.
