Notable Experience
- Represented high-profile individuals, including Michael Lockwood, the former Director General of the Independent Office of Police Conduct (IOPC), in a highly publicised prosecution concerning historic rape allegations. This case garnered significant media attention, requiring a meticulous approach to ensure accurate presentation before the jury, especially given the potential impact of negative publicity. After a 4 week trial at the Old Bailey, our client was acquitted of all 17 charges. The acquittal was vital in protecting our client’s liberty and reputation, which he built over 40 years of dedicated public service.
- Represented members of a US-based hip-hop group, in connection with allegations of assault and serious sexual assault. The cases have garnered widespread media attention in both the UK and the US.
- Advising a professional from a tech background concerning an allegation of serious sexual assault and rape where the client has never been arrested before and has no previous convictions.
