Crime

Corker Binning specialises in criminal defence work - every type of criminal case, from common assault, theft, possession of cannabis and child pornography to official secrets, rape, GBH, murder and terrorism. Our clients include well-known figures from business, politics, sport and entertainment, from across the UK as well as media companies and journalists.

Because Corker Binning also handles a wide range of high profile commercial fraud cases, individuals from professional and business backgrounds turn to us if they and their families need personal advice on a criminal matter. There are often urgent issues to address relating to professional regulatory obligations and unwelcome media interest as well as the criminal allegation itself. We are experienced at working with other legal teams in high profile cases such as divorces or libel matters. In some cases, our advice is sought by victims and witnesses in serious criminal cases who are uncertain of their rights and obligations in the context of a criminal investigation. We also have significant experience of advising young people facing criminal charges for the first time. We understand how difficult this can be for them and their families.
