Introduction
Matthew has over 15 years of experience in Criminal Law, beginning his career as a self-employed police station representative and paralegal before qualifying as a solicitor. While gaining valuable practical experience, he pursued his Law degree and completed the Legal Practice Course (LPC), balancing professional commitments with academic success. Since qualifying, he has gained six years of post-qualification experience, expanding his expertise into Probate and Private Client work alongside his established criminal defence practice.

He also oversaw the firm’s transition from a partnership to a limited company, ensuring its long-term success. Matthew continues to specialise in Criminal Defence, Probate, and Private Client work, providing expert guidance on Wills, Estate Administration, and inheritance matters while maintaining a strong reputation as a skilled advocate in Criminal Law.
