Band 2
Mel Stooks specialises in youth justice issues, including the defence of young people facing serious criminal charges. She also regularly advises on matters involving clients on the autism spectrum.

She is an absolute powerhouse. I don't believe there is anyone in London who is better in youth crime.

Her work with youths is renowned and her client care second to none.

Mel is incredibly knowledgeable concerning the law around children and sentencing. She establishes very good relationships with the children she represents.

If there was a young kid in trouble I would go to Mel. She is utterly brilliant with young people.
