With four QCs and 10 other barristers based at Walnut House and specialising in criminal work, we are one of the leading West Country sets.

Over the years our criminal barristers have appeared across the South West and nationwide in cases of the gravest kind. The strength and depth of the criminal team contributes to the quality of the representation that we can offer to all our clients.

Our experience at all levels allows us to deal confidently with technical, medical and forensic evidence and to advise on the selection of appropriate expert witnesses.

Our criminal barristers regularly provide training in criminal law and advocacy, to Judges, barristers and solicitors, both in the United Kingdom and abroad.
