Case Studies

The central issue is self-defence. We are contesting the prosecution's narrative that our client was the aggressor in this neighbour dispute.

The defendant firmly denies any involvement, maintaining that they had no knowledge of, nor participation in, any plan to assault or kidnap the complainant.

The prosecution relies on the sheer scale of the production—over 500 plants. We are advancing a Modern Slavery defence, arguing our client was a victim of exploitation.

The prosecution used algorithmic analysis of 29,000 messages to estimate the drug volume. We successfully negotiated a basis of plea reflecting a street-level role.

The prosecution case relied on daily bulk messaging data. We focused on mitigating the sentence by defining the precise scope of our client's role.

The client faced a multi-count indictment including Coercive Behaviour and ABH. Our strategic plea negotiation resulted in the most serious charges being left on file.

The prosecution alleges our client orchestrated a planned attack. We are rigorously testing the intelligence gathered under Operation Catogenic.

The prosecution relies on 98,000 communication events to allege a leadership role. We are contesting the attribution of these messages to our client.

The prosecution alleged a central role in a sophisticated vehicle cloning ring. We successfully negotiated a basis of plea limiting our client's liability to a short period of money laundering.

Despite the aggravating factor of threats made to shelter staff, we successfully argued for a sentence at the lower end of the custodial scale.

The prosecution case alleged a joint-enterprise attack. By vigorously contesting the 'Intent' (s.18), we avoided a long-term prison sentence.

We successfully advanced a 'Basis of Plea' proving the defendant was acting under the pressure of a drug debt, rather than for sole financial gain.

The central issue is intent. We are advancing a robust defence that the client's presence in these digital spaces was investigative, not predatory.

The scale of the seizure—nearly £200,000 in Class A drugs—placed this case in the highest category of sentencing guidelines.

The prosecution relies on a pattern of high-tech 'relay attacks.' We are challenging the digital and location data linking our client to these specific thefts.

The Crown places our client at the top of the hierarchy. We are presenting compelling psychological evidence to demonstrate he was, in fact, exploited.

The prosecution describes a targeted execution attempt using a sawn-off shotgun. We are rigorously testing the attribution evidence linking our client to this conspiracy.

Historic familial allegations present unique evidential challenges. We are meticulously testing the reliability of accounts dating back to the defendant's childhood.

The distinction between a desperate attempt to stop a non-paying passenger and a malicious intent to cause harm is the central legal battleground of this case.

We are rigorously contesting the intent element of the supply charges, advancing a defence based on exploitation and debt bondage.

The prosecution case relied on proving a sophisticated conspiracy. By dismantling this link, we reduced the liability from a serious organised crime matter to a simple theft.

The defence focused on disentangling the complex domestic context of the multi-occupancy dwelling from the criminal allegations.

The prosecution case was that this was a pre-meditated home invasion robbery. The jury's verdict cleared our client of this most serious allegation.

The incident escalated rapidly from a suspicious vehicle check to a high-speed pursuit, resulting in a collision with an ambulance and the deployment of a taser.

The scale of the seizure—over 9 million cigarettes—places this among the most significant recent duty evasion prosecutions in the region.

"The challenge was to present a mitigation case powerful enough to persuade the Judge to depart from the usual immediate custodial sentence for Class A supply."
