Overview
Tenacious, driven, bright and committed; Fallon Alexis is the client's junior of choice.
Corporate & Financial Crime
Fallon’s experience of complex financial crime includes serious fraud, bribery and corruption, false accounting, money laundering, tax and duty evasion (including civil fraud investigations conducted by the HRMC).
Crime
Fallon’s strong general crime practice encompasses the full spectrum of offences, including murder, terrorism, firearms, the production and supply of drugs, serious violence, dishonesty offences, fraud and motoring offences. Fallon is instructed alone and as a led junior for both the prosecution and the defence. She is meticulous in her preparation, which coupled with her legal knowledge makes her a highly accomplished lawyer.
Regulatory
By way of natural extension to her work defending and prosecuting in the criminal courts, Fallon has built up a wealth of experience in a range of regulatory matters including professional discipline, industry regulation and where the regulatory field interfaces with public law, in inquests and inquiries.
Private Prosecutions
For over a decade, Fallon has been regularly instructed by the General Dental Council to privately prosecute breaches of the Dentists Act 1984 on their behalf. She is often instructed at the outset of a case being considered and is able to provide advice on the evidence and merits. Given her wealth of knowledge and experience in these private prosecutions she is able to provide realistic and practical advice when prosecutions are being considered against individuals and companies. Fallon has also been instructed to deal with these matters on appeal, and recently successfully defended an appeal dealing with allegations dating back to 2019 which involved the illegal practice of dentistry and the carrying out of the business of dentistry on multiple occasions.
Inquests, Inquiries and Public Law
Fallon has been involved in a number of public inquires, including the following:
- In 2022 Fallon was instructed to assist with the Post Office public inquiry.
- Instructed by the Inquests, Inquiries, and Investigations team at Field Fisher LLP in relation to the Hillsborough Disaster in 2013.
- Instructed by the Department of Health as part of the team lead by Tom Kark KC, counsel to the Mid-Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust Public Inquiry, chaired by Sir Robert Francis KC, who published his final report in February 2013.
In 2010 Fallon provided advice to the Northumbria Police Federation in relation to the Raoul Moat case.

Corporate and Financial Crime
Impressive experience of the various areas and roles within this multifaceted field, Fallon Alexis is instructed in complex and demanding matters that require leadership as much as teamwork.
Overview
Fallon’s experience of complex financial crime includes serious fraud, bribery and corruption, false accounting, money laundering, tax and duty evasion (including civil fraud investigations conducted by the HRMC).
Experience
Fallon has held various roles within the field of Corporate and Financial Crime. Her recent work in this area has included: advising individuals pre interview and charge in relation to large scale international fraud investigations; advising companies and individuals in relation to challenges to search warrants and seizure of documents; her instruction as led junior defending in a large and complex fraud and money laundering case at Southwark Crown Court, which resulted in her client's acquittal on all counts; reviewing documents in preparation for and/or anticipation of criminal litigation; her instruction as Independent Counsel in a multi-jurisdictional matter involving investigations by the DOJ and SFO, a role that required consideration and determination as to whether documents were subject to legal professional privilege; her instruction by HMRC (as junior alone and as led junior) in appeals before the First-tier Tribunal (Tax Chambers), these cases involved complex allegations of missing trader intra-community (MTIC) fraud where HMRC have denied repayment of VAT; advising and assisting a leading international financial institution, she liaised with bankers, senior executives and financial crime analysts, dealt with issues such as KYC and due diligence, secrecy jurisdiction complexities, cross-platform banking issues, bearer shares, corroboration regarding Source of Wealth and Source of Funds and mandatory regulatory requirements surrounding Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs). She also trained bankers on their regulatory requirements and practical ways to ensure adherence to the 2007 Money Laundering Regulations; assisting in-house at Peters & Peters Solicitors on a bribery case in relation to a company’s compliance with disclosure notices issued by the SFO under section 2 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988.
Fallon regularly receives praise for the efforts she makes and the quality of her work; she received an award “in recognition of the valuable contribution to the removal and domain seizure of unauthorised 2012 London Olympic Ticket websites in support of Operation Podium”, run by the Metropolitan Police Service during the London 2012 Olympics.
Fallon is often called upon to provide training to teams within leading corporate and financial solicitor firms. This has included training on the reality of criminal proceedings. Further to numerous instructions in relation to intellectual property infringement and counterfeit goods, Fallon has also trained trading standards officers on interview techniques and giving evidence. In 2012 Fallon presented a paper at the Trading Standards Institute Annual Conference on investigation techniques.

An accomplished criminal advocate, excelling beyond her call.
Overview
Fallon’s strong general crime practice encompasses the full spectrum of offences, including murder, terrorism, firearms, the production and supply of drugs, serious violence, dishonesty offences, fraud and motoring offences. Fallon is instructed alone and as a led junior for both the prosecution and the defence. She is meticulous in her preparation, which coupled with her legal knowledge makes her a highly accomplished lawyer.
Experience
Fallon's experience extends beyond her years of call; she is instructed in difficult and heavy weight cases, often sensitive and high-profile in nature.
She is frequently entrusted to handle large, multi-handed, complex cases. In 2016 Fallon defended a man at the Central Criminal Court who was charged with conspiracy to murder and preparation of acts of terrorism. He was acquitted following a trial that lasted for almost three months. It was said to be the largest case that the Counter Terrorism Command had dealt with to date in the UK.
Fallon's caseload has included the most high-profile of cases. She was junior counsel for the defence in the trial of Rebekah Brooks (instructed by Kingsley Napley LLP). She was applauded by the team for her intelligence, resolve and commitment to the case and the client, throughout.
Fallon has experience of the most serious offences. She has successfully defended multiple young individuals charged with murder. She is recognised for her sensitive and empathetic approach with vulnerable clients.
Fallon has abundant experience of the full spectrum of crimes, including more commonplace offences including driving and motor offences. She is often the counsel of choice for privately paying and publicly funded clients.

Regulatory
A very capable and bright junior barrister, regularly instructed by regulators and professionals for her quick understanding of the issues and commanding advocacy in hearing.
Overview
By way of natural extension to her work defending and prosecuting in the criminal courts, Fallon has built up a wealth of experience in a range of regulatory matters including professional discipline, industry regulation and where the regulatory field interfaces with public law, in inquests and inquiries.
Experience
Fallon has vast experience of professional discipline. She appears before the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service, Nursing and Midwifery Council, General Dental Council, the Health and Care Professionals Council and the Teaching Regulation Agency.
Healthcare
She is particularly well placed to deal with professional discipline matters involving quasi-criminal allegations and has represented registrants, as well as appearing on behalf of regulators, in conviction cases and in those involving serious dishonesty charges. In 2012, Fallon spent a considerable amount of time presenting cases on behalf of the NMC before the Investigating Committee and the Conduct and Competence Committee in relation to both interim and substantive hearings. Since then, Fallon has focused on advising and representing registrants facing disciplinary proceedings before the NMC. Since 2013 Fallon has received instructions to act as a case presenter on behalf of the GDC in relation to both interim and substantive hearings before the relevant committees. Fallon has also received instructions from the GDC’s Illegal Practice team, a discrete team within the GDC which focuses on investigating and prosecuting those who practice dentistry illegally. Fallon receives instructions from Kingsley Napley LLP to present cases before the Conduct and Competence Committee and Health Committee of the HCPC involving allegations of clinical failings, dishonesty and misconduct.Professional Discipline
Fallon has experience of representing professionals from outside the scope of health care regulation, for example she has defended an accountant before the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. Since 2021, Fallon has a built up a wealth of experience in preparing and presenting cases online before the Teaching Regulation Agency, where she is instructed on behalf of the Department for Education in teacher misconduct cases, ranging in the level of seriousness involved. Fallon has experience assisting individuals appearing before the Inns Conduct Committee (ICC) of the Bar Tribunals & Adjudication Service. Fallon recently represented an individual whose fitness to practice as a barrister has been called into question following a declaration on their application form to join an Inn of Court of a finding of misconduct against them whilst a student at university. Fallon represented the individual at their ICC Hearing wherein she successfully persuaded the Panel that her client is a fit a proper person to be admitted to join their chosen Inn of Court.Industry Regulation
Fallon has considerable experience of industry regulation. She has privately prosecuted on behalf of the SIA in licensing appeals in the Magistrates' Court, pursuant to the Private Security Industry Act 2001. Fallon's experience in this area commenced prior to her career at the Bar, when she worked for Kingsley Napley LLP and was responsible for the day to day preparation of SIA licensing appeals in the Magistrates' and Crown Courts.Further experiences
Fallon's practice in other areas places her extremely well when the regulatory field merges with others, such as public law and crime. She is well versed at representing professionals in the criminal context. And she has experience of dealing with professional discipline in an inquisitorial legal process, as with Public Law. Fallon was a junior member of the Counsel to Inquiry's team of the Mid-Staffordshire Public Inquiry which resulted in the Francis Report being published in 2013. In the report Fallon is acknowledged for her contribution to the inquiry team. Fallon also received instructions in relation to the Hillsborough Disaster, and more recently, the Post Office Inquiry.Notable Cases
