Trusted Legal Representation
Over 20 years of experience in handling criminal law, ensuring the best outcomes for our clients.

Client-Centric Approach
We put our clients first, providing tailored legal strategies for each unique case.
Child Abuse Reforms
The UK Government has announced its intention to implement a number of key recommendations from the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA). There is no draft legislation as of yet, however the Government’s Responses to Consultation sets out the direction of travel.
s22 POCA Orders
Section 22 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2022 is a mechanism for the prosecution to seek a ‘reconsideration of the available amount’, i.e. to demand more money be paid by an offender who may have already discharged his/her Confiscation Order, perhaps years earlier.
Roles in Drug Offences
The Sentencing Council’s guidelines on the supply, production, and importation of controlled drugs (“the guidelines”) require that a sentencing court assess culpability by reference to what ‘role’ the Defendant performed in the supply, production, or importation operation. There are three ‘role’ categories – ‘leading’, ‘significant’, and ‘lesser’.
