‘QEB's strength is “due to the quality of lawyers on its books"’
– Chambers UK (2008) Our criminal expertise ranges across the spectrum from major, serious crimes such as terrorism and murder to less serious offences. At QEB Hollis Whiteman, many of our barristers specialise in defending individuals against serious criminal charges ranging from murder, terrorism and serious sexual offences to drugs offences and armed robberies. Several of our junior barristers also specialise in defending individuals charged with less serious matters, such as road traffic offences. In addition to advising and representing individuals in criminal matters, we regularly advise professionals charged with misconduct at disciplinary hearings and before professional tribunals. |
