Homicide & Corporate Manslaughter
For 50 years our members have regularly appeared for both the prosecution and defence in the most serious and high-profile homicide cases.

That wealth of experience has earnt Chambers a first-class reputation amongst its peers and in the legal directories, with many members recognised as being leaders in this field.
