Who are we?
We are a leading set of barristers based in the heart of Birmingham. We provide advice and advocacy in a wide range of areas, although crime is our core area of practice.
As a specialist set, we have a large and experienced criminal team. We act in matters dealt with in the magistrates’ courts to the most serious, complex and high-profile cases.
Whilst we cover a wide range of work, we recognize that, from the perspective of the client, your case is the most important one. We consequently see nothing as routine or minor.

02
We believe in our people
We come from a wide range of backgrounds and have a wide range of professional experience, meaning we will always have people with particular insights into a case.
