testimonials

Crime

‘9 Bedford Row is composed of impressive barristers who regularly deal with murder, modern slavery, sexual offences, people trafficking and drugs cases, to name but a few. It further has a dedicated sexual offences team and regularly handles cases involving vulnerable individuals. Other areas of expertise include cybercrime and courts martial, the latter being attended to by a military law team that includes a number of former military personnel. Recently, its barristers have been instructed in high profile cases including the robbery of Amir Khan.’

Extradition

‘9BR Chambers is a well-regarded set that represents both individuals and requesting states in relation to extradition requests and Interpol Red Notices. Many members here have significant experience with the CPS, and have covered some high-profile matters concerning crime and high-value fraud. In addition to this, they are known for their impressive work around post-Brexit issues and the impact these have on EU Arrest Warrants. Recent work highlights members have appeared in include Marinescu & Others v Romania, a leading case on Romanian prison conditions.’

Clerks

‘Chambers Director Martin Secrett is "helpful, approachable and someone who does his very best to accommodate clients' needs.’

‘The clerks go beyond what would be expected and everything is undertaken with courtesy and in a timely fashion. It would be difficult to find a better clerks room.’

‘Jordan Haisman, clerk, is really helpful and Martin Secrett, chambers director, is always available to call - he's always approachable and goes out of his way to help you.’
