Long experience in Road Traffic cases including fatality offences, firearms cases including firearms appeals and offences concerning mentally disordered participants are some of the bedrocks of past practice. My Rumpole moment some while ago was to successfully defend a case of Dangerous Boating. In addition, I am available to represent parties in professional disciplinary hearings and coroners' inquests and am also available to advise on the merits of private prosecutions.I also provide a pro-bono consultancy service to small charities, in relation to policy development, health and governance overview, and in specific project delivery - including advocacy on behalf of the less confident speaker. I am an experienced Trustee in the Veterans and Heritage sectors. I have just completed a project to revitalise a 50 year old charity, with a result that has attracted wide praise. Show less
