CRIME

GENERAL CRIME

“25 Bedford Row - its external reputation for excellence is founded in its involvement in almost every recent major serious trial, both in fraud and general crime.  The recent enrolment of highly sought after Queen’s Counsel and a number of specialist juniors confirm chambers’ status as a top ranking set”. Chambers & Partners.

Unrivalled experience in defending criminal allegations lies at the heart of Chambers’ expertise, from minor matters at the Magistrates’ Courts through to the gravest of charges before the Crown Court and on appeal.

At every level, our barristers offer knowledgeable, realistic advice and thorough, dynamic representation.  We are proud of our reputation for fearlessness in court based on painstaking preparation and attention to detail.

We are consistently instructed in the most serious and high-profile cases. Recent examples include:

• Operation Overt: the Airline Liquid Bomb Case
• Operation Vivace: the 21/7 failed London bombings
• The trial of the parents of “Baby P”
• The Graff Robbery

Members of Chambers also offer unrivalled expertise in appellate advocacy at every level of seniority. We are frequently instructed to advise and appear on appeals to the Court of Appeal, the Divisional Court (by way of case stated and judicial review) and the Supreme Court. Where appropriate, barristers are prepared to accept instructions on a pro bono basis.

“25 Bedford Row’s commitment to defence work is plain for all to see. It really believes in the work it does and is anxious to put up a good case for the client every time”.  Interviewees report the set offers barristers at all levels who have wide experience making it “a great choice for just about any criminal matter”.”  Chambers & Partners.
