Michael has spent his whole career working in criminal law, having dealt with criminal matters since 2003. Originally starting in the post room of a busy practice in Liverpool, Michael has established himself as one of the leading caseworkers in the city and beyond. Having an adept eye for detail, his meticulous preparation will often be a deciding factor in a case being dropped or a client being acquitted. Michael deals with all manner of cases but specialises in both serious fraud and drug trafficking matters, whether county lines drug supply, Encrochat drug matters or importation. Key to Michael’s success is consideration of cell site analysis, telephone material and the instruction of leading experts from around the country. His consideration of this kind evidence has resulted in numerous cases being discontinued from the police station stage, court stage or acquittals after trial. Having dealt with heavyweight cases since his early 20’s at other leading practices in Liverpool, he has gained significant experience across the criminal law spectrum whilst advising when funded both privately and via legal aid. Since joining MSB in early 2021, he has assisted the crime department in moving from strength to strength, being the only tier 1 crime department as recognised by the Legal 500 in Merseyside.

Highly Recommended

Michael came to my assistance when I found myself in a situation involving police custody. Having never been involved in anything like this before, I relied heavily on Michael’s professional knowledge and skill, which guided me through the process and ultimately resulted in a positive outcome. Much appreciated.
