See all news"Chris is a highly effective barrister. He is elegant, confident and straight-talking."
In the days of the AG’s list Chris was instructed to prosecute cases on behalf of the HSE. However, since 2010 he has acted exclusively for the defence including cases involving death and serious injury and is now ranked by the Legal 500 as a leading junior.
Chris regularly acts for the owners of care homes facing criminal regulatory intervention whether by the CQC, HSE or local authorities.
In environmental cases Chris acts for the defence in prosecutions brought by the EA or local authorities in relation to permitting breaches and/or pollution. He specialises in cases involving statutory nuisance including noise pollution. In this context much of his work is advisory, liaising with prosecuting authorities to avoid prosecution. As a result of his practice prosecuting and defending in the criminal courts he has a particular specialism in environmental cases that involve a confiscation hearing.
Recent cases in which Chris has been instructed include:
Chris has lectured widely on the fees for intervention regime, the effect of s85 of LAPSO, fines for very large organisations, the proposed sentencing guidelines for corporate manslaughter and health and safety offences involving death and criminal confiscation in environmental cases and the role of the CQC in the regulation of care homes.
