Crime: Health & Safety

We continue to be at the forefront of all aspects of health and safety litigation and advice, including:

  • defence and prosecutions for corporate manslaughter
  • infringements of health and safety legislation
  • health and safety policy
  • health & safety management and training

We advise and regularly act on behalf of major corporate clients, both prior to potential proceedings and thereafter in court.

Health and safety - both criminal and regulatory - is a growing practice area for us. We are experienced in a wide range of health and safety-related issues and cases. This includes acting for individuals faced with prohibition notices or potential criminal prosecution, and acting in criminal proceedings in respect of alleged health and safety breaches.
